Anybody purposely interrupting the communications of others is a sociopath. Such people are hard to reach with reason because they have no empathy and actually enjoy the pain others suffer at their hands.
One question: how can one tell they are Hams running those base stations?

With all due respect to the OP I sometimes see "self righteous" behavior within the CB community as well. Examples would be claiming there's only one competent tech in the entire U.S. and/or declaring all export rigs "splatter boxes". It's very difficult for me to believe either statement is true
-
I can’t believe the OP would bring up a 10 year old post. Maybe just to stir people up for a laugh? He hasn’t posted for awhile anyway.
-
And that's the reason I asked the question: to discover how anyone knows it is a Ham who is responsible for an overpowered 11-meter station interfering with normal CB traffic. The ID number would do it, but I've never experienced it. -

those numbers are not official IDs. A Ham ID is 3-6 characters, i.e. A2BC or AB4CDE. The number is a region designator (the US is divided into 9 areas) the letters before the number are any combination that identify it as a US ID. US IDs start with a W, N or K and possibly A (not positive). The letters after the number are randomly assigned to the user. (although any ID less than 6 characters is a custom ID and has been requested by the user).
I hear numbers called out a lot on CB but not sure where they came from. FCC stopped giving out CB callsigns years ago. -
I think those numbers being used on the cb are called DX numbers made up by the operators.
Slowmover1 and skellr Thank this. -
I’m waiting for one of these clowns to pre-record, “One Adam Twelve, listen to the man” or some riff from TV or other. -
