New CB Handle Suggestions?
Well, got a CB hooked up in the hunting truck and it is transmitting/receiving great. Only problem now is coming up with a good Handle. Normally I'm pretty creative but haven't thought of any good ones yet, any suggestions guys? It would also be pretty neat to hear y'all's handles if you've got a CB or HAM radio.

Re: New CB Handle Suggestions?
Bionic Frog and Midnight Runner. Those are some pretty creative handles fordman, I like the way they sound! The guy that I'm gonna have tune my radio's handle is Moonshine, and my dad's is Coonhunter he's had it since the mid '80s since he spent a lot of time coon-hunting around that time. I'm thinking of going with Happy-Camper that's what a few of my teachers call me, and a lot of the kids at school know me byfordman wrote:back when cb's were the thing in the 70's i used bionic frog. i was 14 years old. the next time i used acb was about 10 years ago. and i was driving a truck. it seemed i was always driving all night long so i called myself midnight runner.

Mine is Greasy String.
Long story behind it but.... It came from a truck that didn't have enough power to pull a greased string out of a cats a$$ and the rest is history.

"Hot Air Buffoon" if you talk too much and are a smart arse. "10-4 Bump" another. "Rusty" if yer truck IS. "FE" if yer truck is so equipped. "Buckshot" or something related to hunting.
Comin' up with a Handle ain't easy. Ya'll got a favorite Gun, Food, Dog, Gal Friend, Wife (Don't tell yer Wife about the Gal Friend) or such? Those are good places to start.
Ya'll kinda' get the idea? Try to incorporate something meaningful to you in the handle is best, not easy, but best.

Been years since I had a CB, my handle, Fat Cat. Thought about getting another unit.

That's creative. Thanks for the suggestion it's pretty catchy!71highboy wrote:here is 1 that you can use windwalker
You've got a lot of great ideas. 10-4 Bump seems pretty neat, not much of a chance of running in to anyone else with that handle and it has a good meaning behind it. Truck has a little bit of rust it is a truck of another brand after allforrestbump wrote:"Hot Air Buffoon" if you talk too much and are a smart arse. "10-4 Bump" another. "Rusty" if yer truck IS.

Fat-Cat, I like it! Short and to the point. About getting another unit, you should if you think you'll be using it. They're great to have, we've had one on my dad's truck and the old hunting truck for years and they really come in handy when you're hunting, off-roading, or traveling.Mancar1 wrote:Been years since I had a CB, my handle, Fat Cat.

Re: New CB Handle Suggestions?
My handle is speedy, Im sure i dont have to say how i got that one. A good handle name for you casey is "empty pockets", Because when i was young and fixing up my car my pockets were always empty. Im sure yours are the same fixing up your truck

I was kinda curious how you had come up with "Sarge" Jeremy. It makes sense now, I do remember you mentioning the Marines a few times come to think of it.1982 flareside wrote:The reason for sarge is because i always talked about guns and going to marines as soon as im out of school.

Mine when I was a kid, I was K-Kid, I had a 72 K-5 Blazer and it just fit... I had a CB in my 88 ford when I first joined the military, I used "Running Red" the truck was Red, and that hopped up 5.0 ran like no other... Since than I have been without a CB. I want to install one in my 250 with dual whips!
