Google or YouTube CB Channel 6 Superbowl. At one point it was sort of an unwritten rule that they kept to Channel 6, but now you’ll find them everywhere. Earlier today I observed one of them completely saturating the part of 27 MHz reserved for RC cars/planes/drones using my SDR… from Canada.

Your fellow canadian VE7KFM is one of the worst offenders: https://ve7kfm.com/profiles.html https://ve7kfm.com/profiles.html I've been yelled at by him before on 14.275, about 15 years ago. He's still at it.

  That blog is something. Almost as deranged as the people it's profiling (doxxing?)

    Its like the chris-chan phenomenon: Who is worse, the person the blog is focused on or the people obsessed with them?

by saturating, do you mean they deliver so much power that they effectively create a dynamic noise floor below which normal users fall, and are thereby lost signals for most receivers? i don't have equipment to fiddle with but i'm fascinated, and not shocked at the behavior.

  Exactly. I'm told there is at least one listening station that measures their power at distance, and they are trying to make sure their signal reaches these listening stations and nobody else's. I've heard at least 5 going at any given time. They play looped samples of their own voices with a few audio effects added on, then run that through the most powerful amplifier they can manage to build.

    It’s like RF nerd narcissism with those people. Bizarre.

I did, and it's not the football Superbowl, but a term coined for a group of people who seem to just shout nonsense 24/7 on a CB channel?
