Amidst our members I bet 7/10 people sport the famous chatterboxes we call CB radio's. Now I know mostly all the terms when it comes to saying this or that but as far as talking in the actually 'code' and being fluent about it, I need some serious work. Hopefully I'm not the only one but is there a website out there that would help a poor fellow with this lingo? I know there are definition of terms on random sites but I'm looking for more... Any Ideas?

Huh, they forgot Lot Lizard... on purpose maybe.
did you mean code like slang terms or actual CB 10 code like 10-4 ect?

If you're going to learn the 10 codes you may as well learn the Q codes ( sideband rules!)

Now, I know I speak with a western drawl and sometimes people have to ask me to repeat myself .... but try to listen to some hardcore truckers jibber-jabbering on the squak-box for more than 15 minutes and your head will explode !! I tell you whut ... them boy's is speakin' an entirely different language than what I learn't in school !! And God help you if you are anywhere near San Diego ... Mexican Truckers are even worse !!!

PISTOL, I can relate to that.

Just for fun I started yakkin on the radio in nonsense...real fast jibberish and one guy kept coming back with comments like...I heard dat or Yeah FOUR on dat and the one that I never did figure out was something like "sumps its grit and towns."

That CB of mine has saved me many times from getting stuck in traffic or driving into a storm or an accident area.

Best lingo (or worst) I found is around Tennessee. We always have the CB on when travelling and always hear new words around there.

But most of them can’t be repeated on DTR
