Living in the mountains of BC we get some huge snow falls that leave many truckers in a mess. This happened last week and those who claim that...
Just got a CB call from a trucker who saw my handle and posts on this forum. We are about to meet up at the Tim Hortons down in Trail. This...
Jeez, do you mean there is still hope for my sex life?
I monitor Ch. 19 all day long and have some great "short" chats with truckers passing through. More than once I have headed down the hill to have...

We have some wicked skip this morning (PST) Picking up Minnesota, Idaho, N. Mexico & Salt Lake city I can't grab all the handles because of...

Which time zone are you folks stationed in? I am in the Pacific: same as Spokane Washington.
Any particular time of day or evening?
You guys broadcasting ch. 19? I could hear several but noisy voices on 19 & 6. Both AM. Got a SSB-USB 36 from Indiana for a about 90 seconds...
This is the only place left on the planet where you can spend all day shopping, fishing or wasting away on a high mountain lake and not have to...
I doubt if the CB will ever be an obsolete item for truckers unless a very serious equivalent comes along. I am one of those old farts who had a...
SSB radios screen out many of the CB idiots. The only problem is, most truckers don't have SSB capable radios.
