Sydney Ch 7 website

Post by cartman » Wed Jan 20, 2010 8:51 pm

I was listening to what passes as channel 7 UHF Cb, (though most of the time it resembles a war zone) and heard somebody refer to the Channel 7 website

yes i'd say it does Grant... only channel I ever use is Ch 40 as some of the stuff the truckies chat about on the freeway makes for some interesting listening.... scary but funny....

There are some other examples of really great cb websites but i'm not going to mention any names as the owner of said site threatned me with legal action when I asked him to remove my business advertisement from his site...

Bring back in CB licenses I say to get rid of the idiot population that are wasting channels space in the UHFCB allocation

Here here!

I couldn't agree more but unless someone allocated the ACMA about ten times more money at the same time to initially get more inspectors on the road it wouldn't make any difference?

yeah true, other option is change the channel allocation totally making all existing UHFCB gear useless... provide funding to those legit organisations like WICEN etc that need access to the gear then anyone else who wants to get access must get a license and then purchase the gear...

might not be a popular choice but heck it would solve the problem

HI all, think carefully about that. you may make that gear unlicenced but we already have a problem with people calling 'brian' for a chat and his mate answering back 'nah mate not this channel' on channel X plus other dodgy callsigns on there. thats illegal already yet people still do it (it gets me quite annoyed).
think also the many thousands of cocky's(farmers) and private users who use the CB properly, try telling a cocky that he needs to replace his FM620 that he's had since new cos some boneheads in sydney dont know how to behave. i already know what he'd say.
I know down here i can have the CB on in the house with no problems you get the odd truckie swearing in 40 but thats about it, i ususally have the CB on 40 in the car around the place but switch it off when i hit Skyline near Mittagong, so do most truck drivers i know.
I think the big problem with CB is a sydney based one as it always has been. Licencing and more RI's might crack the problem a bit, but given its not high on the governments list of priorities = less funding. for the record i had a licence in the past and wouldnt mind one again?
cheers

As long as they're not getting a bigger chunk of spectrum I don't really care what they do with that slice of RF ;)
