CB and amateur radio

It is a while since I listened on 11m CB, but in the past the CB band was busy when the 10m amateur band appeared to be dead. 

It is my view that at some point in the future there will be a merging of amateur radio and CB. I have come across an online SDR which monitors the CB band from the UK.

I hope it will merge Roger. There are a lot of people on CB that are perfectly capable to get an amateurradio licence. But for some reason the keep it at CB. I've started my radio career on CB many years ago and sometimes I'm still active on CB and talk to my old mates on that band. 73, Bas
