I'm curious to those who have had or still have Cb's, what is or was your handle. I'm thinking about a new one "dacker" to relate to my affinity to the Adirondack region.

What or who are you?

I was Tired Seabee way back when. I was mostly on the radio either very early in the morning or late in the day after work. So I was either half asleep or worn out.
I am thinking about putting my old radio back to use and going with RetiredSeabee.

I like Dacker it suits you.

I've used "Stump Jumper" since the mid '60's .... some friends hung it on me when we were off-roading in the mountains of Western NC

I was too young to own one during the CB craze, but this was my favorite song as a 10-year-old. Still brings back fond memories of my rural upbringing.

Call sign was KHS9066 My dads was KDS1665. My handle was Sparky. The nick name has stuck with me for years. Some of the local hams that have known me for years still call me by it.

My name was 'Blue Spruce' because I planted 'tons' of small Colorado true blue spruce trees on my former property back east when my late husband and I first built our house.

I planted many other types of trees, bushes, flowers and grass seed too. But I was well known for my beautiful true BLUE spruce trees.

I'm still not sure what to choose. I used to be Gentle Ben, but new radio and new enthusiasm calls for new handle.

Thinking:

Birchbark
Dacker
Basser
Buckhorn
