i stay on 19 when i'm on long hauls. usually seems thats where the truckers are so you get info from the guys ahead of you on road conditions, cops, etc.

I mainly use 19 when I'm on the open and will switch to 38 if there's too many on.

19 is what I usually run on to pick up the majority of the trucker radio traffic

19 is the "official unofficial trucker channel." Its pretty much common place for all truckers.

When the weather is right, 6 is full of skip shooters, but I can usually get a few good skip shooters in the mid 20's and 30's. I'm outside of Cleveland OH and I get guys from FL and LA all the time.

Been a while since I had a CB and am also looking at getting another. Used to be (in SoCal anyway) 17 and 19 were the trucker channels. 19 for the truckers heading East/West and 17 for the truckers heading North/South.

I imagine that's changed quite a bit since high school.

Trucker lingo has changed a bit throughout the years, now a days youd never get me to call any body a "good buddy" Id translate the modern definition here for you but this is a family friendly forum with many differant walks of life that read/ participate and I dont think we'd want to offend that many people. (no joke)
