Hi, I’m Rich. Southminster Essex UK. Was on CB back in the late 80s /90s. Had an old AM set to get me started. Then various Cybernet rigs and a few midlands. Joined the military and left it all behind me. Watched a couple of clips on YouTube about new type all mode radios so thought I’d give it a go and maybe do my foundation licence. Picked up a CRT SS9900, Sirio Performer 5000 and was surprised when on my first attempt there were tons of foreign stations on 27.555 USB but nothing much on FM. Need to get my Homebase sorted rather than the mag mount stuck to my radiator so looking at a 5/8 Sirio Gain Master.
Would like to obtain a Charlie Tango Call Sign. Please could you sign me up.
Thanks
Rich

Hi Richard,
Welcome to Charlie Tango.
Great introduction with your long time interest in radio. May I also wish you the best for any path you take towards the Foundation exam, those extra frequencies are great fun!
As mentioned just keep an eye on this posting for when our admin Gary comes along to allocate you.
All the best, Victor

Many thanks Victor! Chuffed I came across this Channel. Such a friendly bunch. Just purchased a 5/8 Gain master and brackets for my homebase. Can’t wait to get it up. Lol
