A while back I stumbled upon a phone phrek site documenting many of the phone lines that were up around Southern California in the late 70's early 80's. I was never seriously into the phone scene, but when I saw their site I was excited by the memories that it triggered and inspired by how the phone kids had documented and preserved part of a world that no longer exists, at least not the way it did.

That got me thinking about another pre Internet activity that was popular in the San Fernando Valley during that era, CB radio. Better than the phone world in some ways because you could could  take it with you in the car, something you could not do with a phone at that time. I did many Google searches looking for the names of people I knew from the radio. I even did searches in the HAM radio databases for those who I thought to be hams, or knew to be at one time. Doing more generic CB searches I found several CB historic sites similar to what I was looking for but, they were all back east. Several years have past and still nothing for the LA area so I decided to do something about it, hopefully with some help from those of you who may have been doing the same searches and stumbled upon this site.

Grab a cup of coffee, come on in, take a look around and enjoy the Memory Pain!™ If you have anything you would like to add please use the contact button at the top of the page and send me an email.
