Welcome to the official Charlie Tango DX Group CB And Amateur Radio Forum. You are visiting the UK's biggest and most active CB Radio club.. We hope you enjoy your visit.

Charlie Tango DX is a group dedicated to Hobby Radio Users in all forms, whether CB, Amateur, PMR446, Scanning and Short Wave Listening.
We are a very active and friendly group that welcomes anyone from anywhere in the world who has an interest in Radio, regardless of their level of experience, their equipment, their location, or their radio preference. We have members varying from fully qualified operators on the Amateur Bands, to newcomers who have just bought a PMR446 set, and many CBers both old and new. All are equal on the Site.

The CT Site contains many reviews, tips and modifications within the forums, and we take pride that no sensible question is ever left unanswered, and nobody is ever belittled or mocked for asking an honest question, no matter how simple it may seem. We were all new to the hobby once.

If you join Charlie Tango you'll be able to access member-only sections, and use member-only features such as customizing your profile, sending personal messages, voting in polls, viewing modifications and more.

Looking good there Lee...

One tip while you're doing SWL waaaay off frequency for your aerial, unplug the mic (just in case). Unlike a CB, the 430 will still RX perfectly well without a mic plugged in, and there's no risk of inadvertently keying-up.

What Steve says is 100% correct.......but don't worry most solid state HF radios shut the PA down if they sence a high SWR,you would be dead unlucky to blow the outputs on one of these mate :cheers:

I was driving along the M4 a few years ago, at ninety-seven miles per hour, when a copper stopped me and gave me a ticket.

So, to answer your questions Lee:
--------------- "How do you get a ticket" = "Drive quickly"
--------------- ]--------------- and
--------------- "where do you have to go to do it" = "the M4 apparently"
