- I thought the 40 year BIG NET night was over when I dropped down to Channel 38 but it carried right on. Great CB breakers on this video. What an EPIC CB radio night this was.

Thank you for recording both of these anniversary videos (ch40/38). Considering that the UK has other large groups (like Tango-Charlie) who do weekly nets with many check-in's, it's clear that 11m has grown more than a "just a little" since COVID shut everything down (some old timers getting back on, as well as a bunch of new CBers). It was really cool hearing the excitement in so many of those voices coming from the radio speaker, and I played 'em while doing some shack cleaning 😉 You've done a great job helping rookies navigate their path thru the CB wasteland by leaving them some footsteps to follow. 👍
Sounded fantastic, I haven’t heard it like that since the 80s. 👍😄👍
Have just watched your Ch40/38 anniversary video. Brought back a lot of happy memories from 1981 and my foray into Legalised CB Radio with a Harrier CBX (still have it!). Am now in the process of trying to get it all together for a rebirth!! Hope to QSL with you some time who knows with the right skip!!. Paperclip aka G1IQN in Cornwall.... Take care 73's
Glad you enjoyed it
A special day....thanks Fred.....Bob
Nice too see a big net on air, totally awesome 👍 talking too Jez a fellow you tuber 73s nice video take care Fred.
Glad you enjoyed it
very good working in fm mode....good audio 👍
In the early 80’s you had bucket mouths, whisperers, phantom Mike Keyers, DJ’s etc. But wether guilty or innocent you got a label and it stuck with the breakers. I had someone living in my street that where all them names and most breakers used to blame me for it. I got a lot of stick over it. Bounty hunters came and took my equipment and made sure everyone knew it was me. The whisperer was still there so they knew it wasn’t me and brought back my cb. 40 years later I bump into old breakers and they say ohh it’s the whisperer. So the name still sticks. But 40 years of CB was so much fun. Here’s to 40 more
Taking away your rigs sucked !. Glad you got it all back though. After one very bad eyeball i had a few names :-)
CB at its best. Nice one Fred.
Great example of a single contact snowballing into what could be hours of radio - always worth putting a call out on a quite channel.
Well said!
awsome keep up the good work fred 73's 163/ct 257
Thanks 👍
Great to hear you Southern Boys busy
I wish it was that busy up here. Mind you there might have been some appear after I went inside, it was just too cold for me to sit on a car. I was on a bit too early. I had been intending staying on, but the cold!!!
Shame it was not streamed at the time.
Sup Bob

@@joerowland7350 using long wire? With low swr? Nice I need to find out more about it, u said swl got it ok, should have listened longer
Cool to hear you guys.
@@ronalddaub9740 swl= short wave listening I'm puting new antennas because of a hurricane came thru a year ago n I'm a ham so I need a few lol I have a 5 zero for 11meter it built like a tank
@@joerowland7350 I'll be around till I die, 11 meters, I can't be bothered going down the Ham rout now. I should have done it years ago when I could be bothered going out in the cold and sit in a car.
Not getting an antenna up is frustrating, but what can I do about it?
How old do houses have to be before they let you put up an antenna?
They will not allow wires either, any wires have to be below ground and armoured, that is no use for an antenna!
They will not even allow dished for TV, though they had to allow them if on a post.
Some have moved them to the building/house, but they will be invoiced if damage is done to the house in any way.
I am just fed up, there is no point in sitting a Ham exam if I can't get an antenna up!
Hallo Fred there’s a dx 38 group in southderbyshire Staffordshire area every night the dx 38 group 27-97/125 just a heads up hope to hear 👂 you bottom off ya box 📦
What mode do you guys use on ch38?
Hi Barry all this is on FM
Awesome. I wished we had a CT club for CB here in the States.
Morning fred 👍😁
Morning!
I need to get another radio. Problem is, between lack of extra cash and absolute lack of desire for everything, blah---.
Seems like only yesterday
:-)
I got 2 Midland M20'2 back in Dec 2020 off Amazon, but only just got round to testing them now. One is kaput and the other one wont switch to AM from FM UK. So I'm going to have to get them checked out.
I thought the Midland M20 was a export radio ? Does it have the higher UK FM freqs ?
Great channel Fred enjoy the videos, one thing I can’t stand listening to is some one who is using an echo on their modulation you will never hear one on ham radio just thought I would tell you that lol, atb John.😀.
Thanks John. Funny thing is we only recently got Dave to turn it back on :-)
TM62 was a good signal. HD audio.
love it
