10.7 - CB Slang Definition...and the economy...??

Unread postby Roccland » Sat 04 Oct 2008, 23:00:01

In CB slang, 10-7 means, variously, going off the air, out of service, going home, permanently dead, deceased.


Makes one go...hmmmmm.

October 7th is not a particularly significant date in the world.

You are sounding more and more like Golem every day here Rocc, with looking for significance in specific Numbers and Dates. Certainly would make one go "hmmmm" if 10-7 turned out to be the "permanently dead" date.

I'm holding tight on 10-13, the date my US Passport expires.
