Flipping Through A CB Radio Magazine Part 1 of 3 1975 (With Comments)

Here I take a look at an old CB radio magazine from 1975 during the big CB radio boom of the 70's. Many people got their start in ham radio during the CB craze looking for something a little better once they got interested in radio and communications. In the mid 1970's it seemed like everyone had to have a CB radio in their car and in their house. There were CB coffee breaks where everyone got to meet person to person. There were also a lot of clubs on air and off air. As a pre-teen, I took all of this in and developed a great interest in all types of radio. I sure made a lot of nice friends by radio. I was actually reading the magazine you see during a reading session during our 5th grade class in school. My teacher set aside a time each day when we were supposed to bring a book to read during silent time and I brought this magazine. He knew I was interested in electronics so he thought this was fine for me to read while others were reading fiction. He was a cool teacher but guess he knew I might go on to a career in electronics someday. I suppose I was a bit of a geek.
