Hi guys, newbie here. I thought I would join to gain some knowledge in dx'ing. I've bought a ss 6900 to get back into Cb after many years away. I used to have a basic 40ch midland cb in my teens and I miss those days where it was busy. I'd like to gain some knowledge on using sideband and how to use the lingo on there and hopefully gain a call sign. Thanks in advance, Jamie.
