Stormy - it's not possession .......... it's magic!

Animal .... you were able to do that because CB (commercial band) radio is HF (high frequency 500 KHz - 20 MHz apx). HF signals have great ionosphere reflectivity. While you were out of the ground wave (line of sight) of the channel the sky wave bounces between the ionosphere and the ground. Each time the signal returns to the ground it's called a hop.
