CB Radios Seen as Eavesdropping Tool and Social Tool
Chicago psychiatrist Dr. Ner Littner of the Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis says citizen band radios can invite eavesdropping while also serving social and psychological needs. He notes drivers use CBs to stave off boredom, satisfy voyeurism, and stay in touch with home, while some fear direct contact and prefer the anonymity of radio chatter. He cautions about emergency channel jamming as a sign of rebellious impulses.
