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.

I feel daft speaking on the phone as if I was on the radio..
Gor Goodness' Sake don't ever walk down the road with the phone to your ear while using EchoLink...

Can you IMAGINE the looks you'd get if people heard you saying stuff like, "CQ CQ. Mike Whisky Zero Papa Charlie Tango. Affirmative. You're five by nine. Would you like to QSL?" and all that.

It'd be even worse than the classic, "Yes dear. I'M ON THE TRAIN. Yes. That's right. No, I said THE TRAIN"
whahahahahaha you crack me up...

Nah not me...
I have decided that it is handy to contact my mate via the repeater in Holland so that he knows I am on the band and then meet him on the real radio...

as handy as it might be I find it to weird and unaccomplished to use..

Thought I was hearing things,was sitting here quietly reading the forums, 2m ticking over oin the Bruges rptr in Belgium, HF switched off as too many field day contesters on the band, suddenly K6IWA pops up on ON0WV, nobody answered him so I gave him a shout. Turns out he was halfway between LA and SanDiego in California and had accessed Echolink via the internet with his mobile phone. Nice chat tho Echolink isn't really my thing. Did use it for a short while several years ago but have deleted it now from pc. Brilliant system for anyone that can't erect antennas.

whahahah funny that....

Although I don't really like it I have come to realise that it is a pretty cool gadget for listening in and like you say for some people it really is quite an outcome....
