csogbk Posted June 8, 2010 Posted June 8, 2010 Rode from Southern Maryland to Johnstown PA on Friday 4 June 2010. Passed a gent on a RSV on I70 west of Hagerstown and met up with him at the gas pumps off the PA Turnpike. We chatted for a bit, I told him about the web site and we agreed to ride together untill I got off the turnpike. Hopefully he'll show up here! We chatted on the CB using Chanel 19 but the reception was terrible. We were about 100-125 feet apart. I am new to using a CB, can someone advise me on the best squelch settings, etc? Its great to meet new friends and fellow Venture riders! I rode back this morning to work in DC. It was 38 when I left Johnstown, thank goodness for my rain suit!!

Scooter Bob Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 I rode back this morning to work in DC. I don't know how you do it. I thought it was a good idea to go in on a Saturday, and couldn't believe the traffic on the surface streets at mid day. I couldn't live like that, or anywhere even close to that. Hat's off to ya, Scooter Bob
BEER30 Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 I am new to using a CB, can someone advise me on the best squelch settings, etc? While on CB (CB shown on control module) Press the CB button(far right on CM) again . Squelch will appear. Either use the up or down button or roll the volume up or down to adjust squelch. I normally adjust 2 settings above the chatter. Power lines will blast you , so be advised. Nothing to do about that. Official VR channel is 29 in group rides for future reference. BEER30
