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.

Never know Richard, maybe some one from your way can offer you a lift :)
Will put up a post a bit nearer the time for lifts, I can offer a lift from N Wales near Wrexham, Chester area but no good to you

And if anyone from Cumbria is coming, 26CT240 Bill may need a lift :)
Lots of messages about the Bash, looks like its going to be a good one guys :)
I take a small gas stove and frying pan with me, also a bbq, will cook burgers or whatever I have and sell them cheap to try and make money to pay for the hire of the hall, when I`m done you are more than welcome to use it to cook your own food. Kettle is there, elec, water, toilets and shower, 2 large rooms, can camp out in the field or inside. We will have a radio - a good radio, all set up, will be working most if not all the bands, cb, ham, pmr. Will be a lot of beer around I think and lots of socialising going on, it really is a great weekend :)
Still a way off as yet but this will answer most frequent questions I`ve had, and we really are a friendly bunch so hope to see you there
