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.

Yesterday was the best conditions ive seen in years...

Wales,Scotland,Ireland and many areas in England (Cornwall,Dorset,Newcastle,Devon) heard and worked too....CB throws up some great contacts and ukfm 27/81 was buzzing right into the night with huge signals...


Great to hear so many accents all at the same time,infact ch19 was a mash up of Cornwall and Newcastle :thumbs:

You are bang on Sam, it was stunning.
The long haul stuff is great and that, and its always great working Oz and the far off stuff, but conditions like yesterday with very localised short hop sporadic e, give me much the same buzz. I think its because they are few and far between, and come and go so quickly if you are not around you will miss them.
There's something special about a Cornish, or Shetland isles voice coming out of nowhere, and then a few minutes later fading away again just as quickly.
I think its because they are places you just never normally hear.

Its also can be very localised as just the other day i saw posts saying cornwall was being heard by somewhere up norf :) but when i switched on a few mins later i heard nothing but italy :bash:

But i agree the long haul contacts are great (41 div portable being my number one contact) but UK to UK are certainly right up there .. :thumbs:

That used to be my favourite mode of skip on CB, the inter-G type stuff! :thumb:
