Hello, my name is Paul , i am in Manchester and i started off on cb radio in 1980 using a President AR7 A.M rig. I was on the top floor of a block of maisonettes in Beswick using a DV 27 on a car wheel rim. However my very first antenna was the comnunal Antenna system that fed everyone's Tv, so that meant a lot of TVI from me.I had no idea what an swr meter was or anything about antenna's which i later found out about as time went by. I also eliminated my problem with TVUI and bought a TVI filter.I have had many A.M rigs, including Viking 80 channel AM/FM and Major 240 channel AM/FM. I went over to legal FM in 1981 and when 934mhz came out, i bought a Reftec 934mhz rig. I was also a member of the 934mhz club UK and members adopted the UK prefix. I am UK86. When A.M and SSB was legalised in 2014, i bought a CRT S Mini 80- channel AM/FM but was very disappointed that A.M was totally dead. I have been on and off cb radio since 2014 but i now use a CRT Superstar 3900 with a 5/8 wave 21 foot high gain silver rod which i perch on the window ledge outside tied to the window bracket. In 1980 i used cb radio on a motorbike and talked one handed. I am very new to SSB but i am getting use to the operation of the radio. Sorry for waffling, lol

Could i please have a CT callsign?

Thanks
