Hi, I'm Paul based in Thanet on the Kent coast. It's been nearly 40 years since I was based in South London 'hunting the skip'. Since those days, I have moved my QTH down to the south coast (some years ago now), but sadly my beloved 148 got diverted to a CashConverters along the way. I hope this new shiny crt ss6900n will prove be a half decent replacement? It feels good to be back. Please can I request a call sign. Thanks!

Hello Paul, welcome to the forum and back to the hobby.
I am delighted to allocate you 26-CT-3442 may you have good luck with it.
Shame about the 148 buddy I very much doubt that cash converters gave you the kind of money a good one is going for on ebay now!! Nevermind the the SS6900n is a respectable modern rig which no doubt will serve you well.
73's Gary.
