I don't run a amp in the truck so I can't effectively mess with them. I've said a few things to them that weren't very nice when they covered up information I was trying to get on a wreck or some other jam up and I ended up taking the wrong the bridge and getting stuck in traffic. Channel 5 CB shop is just about as bad as well as the truck wash. I wouldn't spend a dime with any of them!!

Ya know I have been around that area and rallied drivers to do the same at lest till they clean up their act and they get real real quite real real quick!!!
As a matter of fact I especially talk about shutting off the money to the truck stops and they know what that means. A lot of people would get mad enough to shut them down. Ya see if enough money dries up the truck stops would lay people off and they would become the sacrificial lamb real quick! As long as we raise this double hockey sticks they would know the reasons why.SheepDog Thanks this. -
The mayor and or governor would step in and shut them down because of lost revenue.
SheepDog Thanks this. -
You don't need an amp to talk to them,,,they got big whips and can hear you just find.... They don't care who is talking, they will pipe right in and give there spew... If the local businesses and drivers would all write into the Sheriff, Mayor and Governor,,,long enough, I am sure it would get shut down. Too many people saying the same thing...."won't do a bit of difference",,,well, it is because people feel this way, that this Country is in the shape it is in now, not just W. Memphis

Sir, excuse me but it does not take a "super fox hunter" to catch a mobile station. Usually a Rabbit will run in a circle and stop; then return home (hole)!

www,kn2c.us see his DDF 2020T kit comes with GPS & navigator. -
Obviously didn't bust the foghorn guy. I heard it today in Arkansas. Used to hear it all the time when I was OTR.

You are absolutely spot on! Pinning down a mobile station that is being pesky is not just a matter of DFing a signal. It involves nailing down a person's habits, of which we ALL have. While, yes, it may take a bit longer to locate an interloper---and a bit of patience. One also must listen for background sounds that provide clues. If there's the sound of cars going by, it can mean that he's near a highway. If the cars seems to be "rushing" by, it could be an interstate. In one case, we kept hearing sounds like riveting as if near a machine shop. And it faded away as the car passed(?) it. But on separate occasions, we heard the SAME sound. So why was he going by this machine shop(?) that's so close to a highway? Turns out, after logging these incidents of interference over weeks, this perp was coming home from work! We had noted in the log that it seemed to happen about the same time of day, but not on weekends. There was an intersection and a stop sign where the car stopped adjacent to the shop. This gave time enough for there to be the sound of riveting and pounding on metal. Then, as the car proceeded the sound faded away. So, then, we looked for the machine shops around town. There were 5 metal shops of various kinds. So one of us "staked out" each one of them to observe traffic past there around 4-5 PM. On the 3rd try, there was one near an intersection, but we didn't know at the time WHY the riveting seemed to pause for a bit, THEN the sound AND the signal got weaker. This explained why. So , sho' nuff, here comes this here pickup truck with a CB whip AND a VHF-UHF dual band antenna on top! He was pinning the foxhunt mobile OUT completely. So the foxhunter "tailed" the guy home and took down his address! GOTCHA!
Triangulating a signal is easy. True, a mobile is a bit harder, but it CAN be done with patience and careful notation of everything a foxhunt team can collect. Often these clues....even the perp himself by accident...will reveal where he is. People often do the same things over and over without realizing it, Most of us do. We tracked one repeater "kerchunker" and bad mouth RIGHT to his door with HIM sitting in the driver's seat!
You never saw a more surprised person!!!!!! His "deer-in-the-headlights" look as we walked right up on him was PRICELESS!!!!! He was so confident he couldn't be found, he had said ugly things about one ham's wife over the repeater, and was about to get his AZZZZZ smeared all over the pavement when the husband ever found him (We talked the husband out of that)
Foxhunting is FUN, and teams practice at it all the time! It comes in handy when some clown gets the big head and misbehaves. That "I-can't be-found' stuff is no longer true, especially where FCC is concerned. THEY can TRACK you WHILE YOU MOVE, pinpoint your location, pick out YOUR signal from all the others and "nail" you to the wall IF they want to!!!!!!! Its like ONSTAR on steroids!!!!!!~ Amazing but TRUE!

Got to wonder how pitiful and miserable life those people lead. Their only goal in life is to be a jerk on the airwaves.

just a technical point with the DDF 2020T, it sort of only works from 100 mhz up and with FM signals. If you know much about doppler df, you would understand how it works and how easy it is to make.
I've got the real thing somewhere in my collection, made by Harris and it is not what you would call cheap but it does find things. -
Don't mean to butt in, but is there one of these "finders" that can track regular CB's, 26-30 KHz AM..?
