Isn't Facebook, Wikiwirral or other social media a more modern form of cb radio though?

Good point well made Derek,I think perhaps it's the actual verbalization that resonates with me,it just seems a bit needy and desperate .I take your point though.

Might pop into Knights CB Shop in Gainsborough next time i head towards Leeds and buy a Grant 2 unless i find a highly illegal Superstar 3900 or Grant 1 with a UK40 Mod :D, Then need to Convince my girlfriend i want to put an Aerial on the house, i already have a cb in my works van but its A bit rubbish.

No idea what cb radio has in connection with CB radio btw ludwigvan, you wouldn't get a radio Ham selling his radio equipment to post on Wikiwirral.

I have the Certificates to get my ham Licence and i don't mean the easy Foundation Licence, did it when i was 19 and still not sent off for my Full licence, 41 now and been thinking about getting it for a while, the new legal EU channels have go me interested again and i wont need permission off my mummy to let me use it after 9pm but my little girl of 30 months might have an issue if she isn't asleep

Sent a Pm Ian didn't realise i have a message.

38 Miles from an indoor Aerial is mighty impressive, i remember talking to someone in Scotland on a magmount when in my works van outside work in Prenton in the 90s on my Superstar 2000 quite a buzz from it.

Uggie...

I look forward to one of the old-squad of CB users getting back on; somebody who remembers what the earlier days were like and stands well qualified to bring a little of that feeling back to CB, locally - and, maybe, not so locally.

I look forward to hearing you on, then, Uggie...take care.

Witchie.

If you start shooting back, for yourself, on this forum, you get into trouble. I'm very good at shooting back, as you've already noticed, and I like to stick to the rules of a forum.

Well I am on the Wirral for a few days and have brought my midland rig, as I had some kit up here to test.

I will be back up up on the wirral for a few weeks in about 3 weeks.

Looking forward to see if the base antenna on my parentschimney is still swr'din after 20 years.

I have been training for my foundation for a few months and now AM has become legal its a nice easy way for me play.

No splint,I haven't noticed that you are very good at shooting back,I have however noticed that you are very quick to take offence and to run off and tell the teacher rather than engaging in a debate and perhaps defending your little hobby.I'll bet you are a terrible snitch at school.
