Hi All, hope you all are keeping safe,
I live in Shildon Co Durham, England
I would just like to introduce myself, I recently got back into CB, I dug my Hygain v out and Amtrad CB 901 out which I was kindly given from a old breaker back in the day, I have fond memories of listening to the Radio as a kid, I had the equipment for a while now and never got round to setting it up. so I'm going to start out properly and set every thing up which I have. I'm currently going to set up a loft aerial before committing large aerial outside, Recently set up the CB901 up on a tin lid and it worked, received a contact from the local CB shop which was great!
So could I request a call sign please
Thanks FazerRider44

Hi and welcome to Charlie Tango DX.
Just a heads up, one of the requirements for a callsign is your name, (not signed off here or put in your profile). If you could pop your first name into your profile or at least sign off with a first name here you'll get a callsign no problem.
Callsigns are usually issued every day or two.
Otherwise, great intro
All the best, Victor
