Hi, I am Barney, live in Manchester, UK. Was active on CB since 1980 till 1995. Have only recently taken the CB out of storage. DIY'd an Inverted V antenna in the loft, tacked onto the rafters. Seem to work very well especially now (May 2020) that the skip season is upon us. Very strong signals from all around Europe even Stateside with excellent propagation!
Please issue me a callsign, thankyou!
PS. Had a call sign issued by the IS Group which was IS2029
