Hoiya from the far eastern shores of Suffolk.
New on here. Recently got two rigs, one for a homebase and the other for mobile. Also got three Uniden scanners. Did have CB's in lorries many years ago,and what a difference nowadays, so on a learning curve as I go along!
Blessed be.

Is it possible to request a CT call sign please, as I'm considering tweaking ny rigs to do some freebanding.
Thanks in advance

Hello, Poikey.
To be issued a call sign your profile must contain your name, your country and your QTH. Would you be kind enough to update your profile with your name and country and we'll get your call sign sorted out.

Hello Hagar,
I have a small query with your name. In your profile you have declared yourself as male but you've entered "Hagar" which is female name.
It's a modern world but I'm just checking before allocation as that's what will end up in our call sign directory.
Best 73 Gary.

Many thanks for the clarification Hagar.
As a kid I wanted to play the snare drum in the Boys Brigade marching band. They would only agree to this if I agreed to attend Sunday School. The characters of the Abrahamic tombe were indelibly etched into my brain. I know my Hagars' from my Sarahs'.
I am delighted to allocate you 26-CT-5188 may you have good luck with it.
Best 73 Gary.

Thankya ta!
I had heard that Hagar was/is a womans name ( This means I keep in touch with my feminine side, just don't tell every one ) though there is a Hagar the Horrible along with Sammy Hagar the Red Rocker!
