Hi there. My name is Derek Elam. I live in Mablethorpe, Lincolnshire, which is a Seaside Resort on The East Coast Of England. I started on the CB Radio in 1981. My CB RADIO then, was a little NENTONE, which was really terrible for bleed over and my Antenna was one of the old grey DV-27 mobile ones, on a car wheel in my bedroom. I now use a CRT SS990 and a SIRIO 827. I was wondering if, I could please be issued with a Callsign? Thank you in advance. From Derek Elam.

Hi Derek,
Welcome to Charlie Tango DX.
Callsigns are usually issued most days so hopefully you won't be waiting too long.
Nice intro BTW, I smile every time I hear mention of a cobbled together DV27 setup back in the day
All the best, Victor

Derek,
You have appeared to ask for a callsign in two postings so I have merged them together here to prevent any confusion when our Mr Gary Wilson comes around to issuing your callsign.
No need to post again regards this, your reply and callsign will be issued in this posting.
Forums can be a pain to navigate when you are new. Glad to be of help
All the best, Victor

Hello Derek and welcome to the Charlie Tango DX Group. Nice introduction, for some reason when somebody mentions DV-27 it makes me think of biscuits, can’t think why,
