Greetings, I hope this message finds everyone, really well.
Returning to the World Of CB after a 35+ year break.
I used to have access to my parents homebase unit (silver in colour is all I remember) and back in the 80's my handle was Band Aid (as in the plasters) as I was always grazing and cutting myself as a kid, but then Bob Geldoff Ruined it for me with feed the world concert called Bandaid.
I'd like to be issued with a callsign please as I would like to experiment with ssb A'd then possibly gain my ham foundation licence.
Many thanks for your help and time

Hi Nathan,
Welcome to Charlie Tango.
Great intro there and good to hear a little about your radio history. Nice to have fond memories of parents involved with CB adventures and I also wish you good luck with plans towards the Foundation exam.
I am delighted to allocate you 26-CT-4899 may you have good luck with it.
All the best, Victor

I never knew there was a posh area, but I'm definitely from the rough part of the City

Southampton has a few posh bits, but I only own one bit East side, I will listen out for CT - 4899 Trouble is we have some people around the town that just like to key out the people on 19

I have noticed that there are a few wallies in the area, but I am trying not to let them spoil the time I get.
