Why Are Hams So Thrilled with 10m?

[Grinder74]

My question is why are so many HAMs in dire hatred of 11m?

They are jealous and want 11meters back.

I think CB would be better. if some thing big happened and there was no power to most of the country(no internet, no phone, no cell) CB would be a way better way to go. how many people even know where to find a HAM radio? let alone turn it on and transmit. Every state has many truck stops where CB's are sold. CB's are more user friendly and easy to operate. I am not knocking HAM's at all, i am planning on getting my license soon. I think some HAM's get lost in their mass allowance of frequencies, that they look down on us CBers and think were just a bunch of redneck with a radio. I think they underestimate the mass number of CBers out there, and that some of use have some knowledge on how radios work

Wait we're not just a bunch of rednecks with radios?

I'm going to lock this topic down for now before it starts getting ugly.
