Very rarely see CB-type home aerials around Carlisle, although I know the locations of a couple of Ham set-ups. Is CB still active among lorry drivers? I know it's frowned upon at Eddie Stobart's. -- Darren GSF1200N K3 From acceleration comes exhilaration.

Completely dead round here and round Carlisle. > > 2m and 70cm are quite alive and well though. Surpried me to hear that. I thought CB was as dead as the dodo.
