Hi All.

 I have just come back into the shack so to speak and have an adventure starting the end of the month with a drive through a few places in Europe ending up in Zante I thought I would get back into it  and see if  I can pick up some contacts on the way fingers crossed

Hi Wayne,

Sounds like a plan, if you're going on some travels why not take a radio along and make it a radio travel too. Travelling Europe  1f44d 

I wish you the very best with it and hope you get some great contacts along the way.


All the best,
Victor

I'm on a road trip end of the month around Europe and ending up in Zante for a few weeks before return home. I can't wait to see who I'm able to contact. Hopefully chat with a good few on here

Hi Wayne,

I'd noticed that you had repeated your posting about your European trip on the forum and merged them together here. This is just to ensure the forum rules are complied with as regards 'cross-posting' but also to prevent any confusion with possible replies.

As I said before I hope you have a great trip with some radio fun but also be aware of any legalities in the countries you will be visiting. We forget that we're lucky here in having our old UK FM CB frequencies as well as the EU CB frequencies with their added AM/SSB privileges but this isn't a reciprocal agreement so technically they'd be illegal for use in Europe.

Yes, I know many 'illegal' frequencies such as 'free-banding' are in common usage around the world but always best to be in the know and you're bound to find many European operators will be on their main frequencies so better chances of contacts to be made. Travelling Europe  1f44d 

Might also be worth checking on local laws with regards hand-held microphone use as although we have a technical 'loophole' here in the UK that may not be so in European countries. Getting a ticket here is one thing but having to pay on the spot fines in Europe with a gun toting officer of the law is quite another! Wink


Again, have fun and enjoy your radio with all the best luck for your trip.

Might be worth keeping a log of contacts made as you travel if not just for your own pleasure but maybe also to share back here on the forum. Would be of great interest I'm sure to some of the CB operations around Europe and especially if you contact any of the Charlie Tango members on the continent. 


All the best,
Victor

Hi Victor.

Thank you very much for your advice, the more knowledge I gain regarding what to do etc is certainly very helpful.
I am hoping to get on the radio tonight, home based to start my learning curve back into it.

Thank you
Wayne
