Hello, Im thrilled to be a new member to the forum. Im a very young breaker at 18years old. I started CBing as soon as I passed my driving test in February 2019. Until then I'd had rigs but with nowhere to put them . (mum didn't want ariels on the house lol) A couple of months down the line I've removed the basic equipment I'd managed to ponce for free and have now wired direct to the battery my President Grant 2, using a Sirio 5000 on the roof! Ive just launched my own facebook radio group 'Kent Cb Radio' In which I hope to localise breakers in Kent and bring them to a place where we can discuss, arrange nets and have a clear list of realistic 'in range' breakers to talk with.
I'd love to have a CTDX callsign, the sooner the better
All the best, 73s Elliot

Hello Elliot, welcome to the forum.
Unfortunately 26 (England) division call signs are on hold at the moment while we reconstruct the database following a change of forum host. We will issue you one ASAP.

Well at least there's no danger of melting that antenna with anything less than BBC broadcast power! Welcome along Elliot, good to see there's new blood coming into CB still. Stick with it as I predict the next year or two will be looking up propagation-wise.

Thank to everyone for the replies. 'Go big or go home' is my motto lol. The facebook group now has nearly 50members in two days so its going well. Unfortunately though as always only a small minority are actually active in the group. Either way, It's going well.
