CB Handle
For those of you who key your mic often, what is your CB handle? I just got started today with my first CB and I'm trying to think of a good one for myself. As far as equipment I'm just running a Cobra 19LTD II with a standard magnetic mount NAPA antenna. When I get my new truck I'll transfer it and put in a much larger whip style antenna on a hinge so I can tuck it along side the bed rail when not in use.

When I was a kid and CBs were all the rage, I talked my dad into letting me get one to put in his '69 Mercury Marauder. What was my handle? Marauder. In later years I put one in the Tiger for trips with my sports car club, they just started calling me Tiger, and thus the legend was born...!

the 79 F250 has a galaxy DX 959 in it,the 88 super duty 4X4 has a galaxy DX 66, the 66 7litre and 65 falcon have cobra DX148 NW ST's in them, and the mack has a galaxy DX 88 that comes out at night and goes in the 99 P71 crown vic. the handle is the rebel, from back in 74, i had a rebel flag in the back window of my 66 dodge power wagon. people started calling me the rebel, even though i was using "pacer" for the pace 2300 radio i had at the time. rebel stuck, and stayed with me since.

"Animal" for the most part, got that back in highschool and it kinda stuck. I use fake ones every now and then for pure entertainment(thats what being a jerk and big radio and being bored gets you) I have been stuck on "Hobo Magic" for a little while now. For those that don't run with me that much, call me "little turbo" they know of, or know my dad "Turbo"
