Hello MRO!

Why would the introduction of internet affect people who are invested
in CB radio?

hey there's this new thing called cb simulator on compuserv. you can talk to tons of cool people instead of the neckbeard who lives in his parents shack and hasn't worked his entire life.

not familiar with compuserve cb simulator. was it actually
voice/audio thing like the real radio? sounds to me it was
just text based. if that's the case, seems unusual for
dedicated cd (radio) users to migrate to a text-based system.
