Hello Everyone,
I am Chris originally from Paisley but now living in Washington, Tyne and wear in England. I was on the CB way back in the 80's and when lockdown started I decided to rekindle the interest but found Amateur radio instead. In December 2020 I passed my foundation licence and went on to pass my intermediate in June 2021 and currently studying for my full licence.
But I still have a keen interest in CB Radio so looking to get back involved in that. My current shack consists of a Yaesu 991a,Kenwood TS711A,and a Yaesu 817nd with a X50 2m/70cm antenna and a HF 360 Antenna.
