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.

Hi Al

The trailer has had a full make over, I will go over all the sections of the Antenna and make sure they are all good.
I will try and fit a Genny in for Craig, hope he remembers the 40mtr wire.
Had a good chat on the phone with 2020 jeff and he is expecting us to shout him on fri and Sat night.
Hope the weather is good for us.

Looking forward to this one.

Andy

Designing and building even bigger Antennas. Hoping for some good DX, waiting for solar minimums to fade away.

a microwave may be handy for snacks if anyone has one they can bring with them, otherwise I take a small gas stove
Bring a plate and eating tools if you use them :)
