RE: CB newbie - Jonas - 9 January 2014

BeardyMan, maybe you should be looking at a "foundation" ham license instead. Just a thought...


RE: CB newbie - BeardyMan - 9 January 2014

Good point Jonas. I do quite fancy a 10m rig for the truck, but it's a fair chunk of cash for something that I'll probably not get much use out of.

Probably wouldn't bother with the license as I have no one to talk to regularly, and it would only really be something I'd use PSHTF when there's no OFCOM people to tell me off. I do have a couple of study guide pdfs though, as the information is handy to know.

Yes,... it has been past, and SSB will be legal as of April this year

Thanks Highlander,

I forgot to check up on this at the end of the year. Ofcom are stating implementation date to be by July 2014, I don't know from where the April date was derived.
