    Yep!! A few of us do! I don't need a radar detector, those truckers keep a pretty sharp eye out for speed traps. In really bad weather I can find out what's ahead of me, and if I'm extremely sleepy, it keeps me awake. I don't know, it's just kinda neat to have one. I know a lot of truckers too, so that helps also. Preston

    My grandpa still uses a CB. He drives all over the south east every week buying antique "junk" for his flea market, and them truckers sure know whats going on around you.

    For us real old timers, you used to have a license to operate one. Somewhere I still have my CB license. I'll have to dig it out and post it tonight.

    Here it is. Straight from 1976. I believe it was about $10 back then. You was supposed to use the call number when you talked on it.

    That's cool Dennis, I am amazed you could find it.
    A license is no longer required to operate an unmodified CB radio. Of course I don't think it was ever legal to operate a modified one even with a license.
