Yep it reminds me of the 80's! I uploaded a video to Youtube...



They used to sound exactly like this back then too, even recognised some of the callsigns used... Mobsquad etc, if you look on Youtube they have somewhat of a cult status  :o

Well we're a bit short on CB idiots locally, so hearing any means the DX is up. The more idiots, the better the conditions :)

It is possible to have too much of a good thing though.... when the idiots spill over onto all 40 channels, then the solar max is a bit out of control.

yep. Was just on it myself five minutes ago.
And 27MHz, I put a call out and cause a pileup on just about any channel.
Even AM is working for Sydney to Melbourne.
