Hi folks, I've been messing about with PMR446 while enjoying outdoor activities. I thought it time I expand my radio use to CB. This has led me here.
Cheers Al

Thanks Victor, John.
My journey into radio really started with the PMR sets. Trying to get my head around CTCSS etc, which led to finding out about the Sunday channel 8@8 net. I was pleasently surprised to find that not only could I hear folks from in and around York, but that they could hear me on my Motorola T92 on 0.5W. If any Yorkies are on here they'll know me as Harry, my Facebook pseudonym. Many thanks Al
