This section is a tribute to my CB radio experiences, which span from the early 1970's, thru the late 90's, in Norristown Pa, which is a suburb of Philadelphia. So set the controls on your "way-back" machine and prepare to relive a period of time and a popular activity which was enjoyed by millions of people, but has been buried among the other novelties of the time, like disco, the pet rock, and lava lights, and largely forgotten by all but a few die hard radio enthusiasts. In many ways, CB radio was as much a window into our culture as it was a hobby.
