He was walking on folks and wouldn't let them on the channel. I warned everyone I was going to transmit in CW and told them to clear the channel for 5 minutes. I keyed up the radio while I was standing in the door of the shelter. I saw a semi scream to a stop on the side of the road and a guy bail out, with smoke rolling out of the cab.  No more problems on that channel...  |
Years ago when CB radios was the in thing. I had one with a 300 watt amp in my one truck. Had a roll bar in the bed with 2 KC Highlighter lights on it and a short whip mounted between the lights. With the lights off, the amp on. I would key the mike and the lights would glow.
