    Hey Finnigan,
    Licensed here as well. KU2S. Wouldn't get in a vehicle without
    a CB and a 2-meter rig installed... Never hurts to play it safe,
    that's for sure!
    As for talking to alcoholics on the CB... Well, just because a
    guy is drunk doesn't mean what he has to say is meaningless. As long
    as he's lucent and isn't swearing up a storm, I don't see any reason
    not to talk to them. There are NO FCC regs that I know about that prohibit transmitting while intoxicated on either the 11 meter or the
    Ham bands...

    Only folks I've heard singing on the CB couldn't hold a tune in
    a bushel basket. Then again... Could have been some of those
    alcoholics that everyone's talking about...

    73!


    Me too. But this guy was amazing.
