Hello everyone. My name is Sid and I am from Northern Ireland. Was bitten by the CB bug back in the 80's and have been an avid short wave listener ever since. 20 years ago I got my Amateur Radio Licence but in recent times I have had the bug again to get back onto 11m especially with the sunspot cycle back on the turn again. Retired now so hope to have lots of time to have fun on 11m again !

Hi Sid,
Welcome to Charlie Tango.
Your forum profile is all looking good ready for call sign allocation so just keep an eye on this posting for when our admin Gary comes along to issue you with one.
I hope you have a lot of fun and some great contacts with your exploration of the CB/11m frequencies again.
All the best, Victor

Hello Sid, welcome to the forum.
You haven't requested a call sign so I will hold fire until you confirm that you want one.

You're very welcome Sid,
I hope to work you on the bands. NI to the midlands was very strong on 20 meters last week and my antenna favours yours direction so there's every chance.
