On behalf of all of us old timers who've been in the radio hobby for 50-plus years, I thank you, Mr. BBi, for these fabulous interviews. You, along with those you've interviewed, have made a major contribution to preserving the rich history of CB/11 meters. Simply excellent. I can hardly wait to see what comes next! Keep up the good work.
The first breaks I went to in the 90's and met all these folks I listened to and talked to on the radio was a very pleasant surprise. They all have a good-hearted competitive spirit. Good as gold folks, loved the costumes and all the antics at the breaks too, was a lot of fun and entertaining.
As a kid growing up in Ohio I use to listen to my dads radio and always would hear 766 and switch blade, now i talk with them on the radio, I love it, I love that you take the time to do these interviews, it’s awesome hearing legends tell their stories, thank you for doing this and thank you to all of the radio operators willing to do this, it means a lot to me, 261 Canyon Hopper southeast Utah waving a hand
Mr BBI thank you for what you do for the cb Community, and by keeping the hobby alive with interviews like this very cool. The little duck out here in a big pond wanted to tell Mr 766 thank you for taking the time to share his stories with us. Again thank you both!!
Sir, this is the bees knees right here. Thanks for taking the time to do this. This is important and nothing but thumbs up from me. Can’t say thanks enough for taking time out of your schedule to give back to the community and have this documented. Such incredible stuff right here man. This stuff is almost available nowhere else. Everyone needs to take time out of their day to put the microphone down, stop talking, and just listen to these legends.

I really want to thank you for this interview with Mr 766. I Know it takes a lot to get out there and make these interviews happen. I wasn't expecting to get drawn in and enjoy it so much. You're documenting history for others to see. Some very good lessons in this story. It's a very interesting lifestyle/hobby you all share. 🎙️📡👍
766 has the strongest signal I've ever seen into Sydney Australia a true 30+ back in 1990 and I was only using stock mobile radio and a 1/2 wave antenna listening from home, I happened to be recording on cassette at the time. He was saying " look at that DB, look at that DB that I'm putting out,I am the king the big man,big man Northern Cal got down!" He is the boss of all bosses that's for sure.
I really liked the interview with 766, BBI! I was living in Columbus Georgia in the 80s stationed at Fort Benning (Duce of Georgia), channe 11 on a GE 1000 and M105 flatside antenna, thought I was the big boss, listening to 766 I was a mud duck on a JB12 😆
Watching all these video interviews it's awesome, thank you for taking the time to recorded this history and sharing with us. Greetings from Pennsylvania.
That was an excellent interview I truly enjoyed it and I really enjoy hanging out with 766 at the brakes in New Orleans and in Mississippi 73's big dog in Houston
Just talked to Mr. 766 this weekend form S.C.on 6 He said he only had one pound of skip, and I thik he said he was running 30K. LOL Great Guy. Thanks for the DX, hope to do it again
Class Act ~ Great stuff ... very interesting and love the pics and how it's put together ... I've not seen a signal yet that stays strong for so long ... HARD hittin' 766 ... THE BOSS as far as I'm concerned ... Hats of to BBI for putting it together.. 73 DLL
I watched this video front to back 3,4,5 times in a row... I have much much respect for these men and you also Luke.. I live my station every second every minute I'm doing something to do with the radio.. I study and study videos,books,people,other peoples stations . I even study ducks i mean duck to a duck mudduck. . I am self taught and see teaching myself to be in the world you guys are in and you will only know what i mean when you are either in that world or opening the door to it.. when i switched over to let's just say ok it's time to upgrade your electric service and running dedicated lines the old saying this ain't your daddy's shotgun hits the nail on the head... I appreciate you for what your doing and about to do I appreciate the real big hammas .. happy dads day god bless WOODCHUCK NY GON.....

Man going to be tough to wait this one out. 766 used to rock my speaker on the east coast when I was 12. 419 up around bean Town rocking on with these 3 pieces of glass.
Man I got lucky a few times and got to hangout with Switchblade and 766 on the airwaves talking with them, they were talking to each other and somehow conditions were right and I got to be part of that, it was the most fun I’ve had talking skip
I met Mr.766 at the camp one year & maaaaan "766" & "Steel The Big Train 32 cars with no brakes" had all my face & jaws hurt'n from laffin so damn hard🤣 School yard bully from WDC was there too but that dang 766 will have all your stomach hurt'n bruh I swear! Lady Dairy Queen was standing there too wiping the tears from her eyes! We stood in front the main hotel for hours talk'n cash trash & the 99's was waste deep🤣 Lawd have mercy I enjoyed myself 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Really good videos for someone like me that is just starting to get my feet wet in CB radios i already have my Little base station but it seems like no body hears me out there for radio check I have a bearcat 980 ssb
Probably 20 years ago, i remember miraculously getting a response from 766 on ch.6 with an eagle 500, cobra 1000, and a moonraker 4; dude constantly had my needle pegged in South Louisiana.
766 The man the legend we heard of the stories grown-up on the radio as kids🇦🇺 i’ve only spoken to him a couple of times…ch11 You could always hear him from the other side of the world. 766 was the only powerhouse to bend my needle from the states (11m). The Hawaiian boys used to come in and then 766 will go in straight over the top TRUE POWERHOUSE I take my hat off. Thank you BBi much appreciated I love your work. And I truly mean that 👌✌️ From the 411 downtown Sydney town 🇦🇺The biggest muduck of them all! Waving the hand
BBI I liked this guy he was a pretty cool dude. My same scenario I started with a 15$ flea market Midland 23 channel basic CB on a car battery in my room and a A-99 everyone keyed on me and was a dick about it so I bought a A/C base rig and a few power supplys and a 2 pill then a 1 x 4 jacked my antenna up and so on and on thats how it starts they key on us and we pump our junk up it's a great hobby.
I have heard this man on the radio for years have never been able to talk to him he sounds like a great guy I enjoy your interviews sir I would like to meet these people I'm in Knoxville Tennessee trail blazer just got down

Yep The Biggest Amplifier is the Antenna! That alone could give you more DB Gain then an amp it self in the right circumstance.
What a cool dude. I met a lot of folk like this doing residential electrical, they were just stoked to talk shop.
