Back in the 70's, I used to have an SBE Sideband number in the car, and a Siltronix 1011-D at home. The Siltronix was a HAM radio I had modified to work on CB frequencies... it had a VFO (Variable Frequency Oscillator) and I used a D-104 mic. For a while there, I enjoyed meeting people, chatting, etc., although, of course, once kids got onto the channel, it soon became messy... Since I, and many of my friends, had VFO's, when there were kids messing up the channel, we'd go in between channels (where a click, click channel changer on a typical CB was 10 KC's apart, fixed) and after a few minutes of normal conversation, the kids would leave, because they couldn't find the channel we were on to complain!
