    Well, it does need to be moved, or it ain't gonna happen.

    Old dirt racetrack or something?

    There are plenty of areas near Cincy which could safely host a Big Strapper gathering. Just don't do it in a location which draws unwanted attention.

    Same can be said regarding QRO operation on CB in general. Behave like an idiot and/or run dirty and you're going to get popped.

    I think the FCC should get off the CB'ers backs already. Haven;t they been bothering CB'ers long enough ? I was operating regularly and running power during the Reagan years and was never once visited by the Feces. I had thought they had finally come to their senses and ended CB enforcement for good. seems I was wrong. In any event once I got my ham ticket I quit operating CB.
    I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.

    "I think the FCC should get off the CB'ers backs already."
    I think CBers should stop acting like alpha hotels, then the FCC would get off their backs. The same goes for hams, 14.313 and 27.025 are about the same sort of zoo. The FCC is an Equal Opportunity Enforcer, they give everybody an equal opportunity to receive an NAL.

    "Haven;t they been bothering CB'ers long enough ?"
    No, as long as there are alpha hotels there will be enforcement.

    You were running power, I was running power, actually there was little QRP operation then and now. Power never was a problem, 100W or thereabouts never attracted the FCC's attention or anybody's for that matter, but REALLY HIGH power does. Then there is signal quality, high power doesn't mean a dirty signal, a dirty transmitter means a dirty signal and that attracts more attention than anything else, except maybe a dirty operator. Ah, here I am repeating what I've said many times before.......... but THIS station never got complaints and never got busted either.
