Well of course we need to establish here whether we're talking about the REAL CBers, who broadcast on the old illegal AM frequencies, or the boring, crap, legal FM frequencies.

I was on AM back in the day, and my handle was Skydiver. Local towns and pubs all had a cryptic name seeing as we were broadcasting illegally. Not that they were hard to fathom!! And what about "Sideband" when you could potentially speak to people from abroad. CQDX!

The local CBers once had a fancy dress do which was "Come as your handle" There were some quite good outfits!!

Was great fun. Breaking channel was 1-9 where I was at the time, in Rossendale.

From memory we had a big black "Firestik" aeriel
