    That means you are COOL. Unaffected by the environment, nonchalant in the face of danger.

    Any truth to the stories of drivers walking around a truck stop with an antenna to find a Radio Rambo?

    What good would walking around with an antenna do. I have never heard of it. I have seen some locate the rambos, at times it has been quite entertaining, but then I always did like watching a good fight. most of the time they can not get them to get out of the truck though.
    I was walking in to a truckstop, when a short fluffy black girl whooped in and backed in to a spot in a schneider truck, she backed in like a pro too.
    She got out as I was walking by and I commented that I liked her co drive, she had a large stuffed tazmanian devil riding shotgun. I started to continue on, but she started the opposite way, so I ask where she was headed, she said she had ridden around till she found which driver was running his mouth and was going to see what he was made of, so I had to go see how itshook out. She reemed him good, but couldn't get him to get out or even unlock his door. it was funny to watch though.

    Ain’t no truck driver going to last long in the business by losing sight of the big picture like she did. Any pro in any game will stay on an even keel. The goal is one million miles without a ticket or insurance claim. What does a dip #### on a CB have to do with that?

    Like with a loop antenna to see which direction the signal is strongest to pinpoint the location. That's just what I heard.

    I have never heard nor seen it, that is not to say it never happened.
    Back in the license days it was common for charlie to drive around and nail people tat ran too much power, they actually still did once in a while just a few years ago, mostly the high power rigs that advertised on the radio. I know they hit several of them at west memphis a few years back, and down at el paso too.
