common equipment or frequency..

[Skean Dhude]

When CBs were all the rage we set up a club and one of the techies modified our rigs to get a slightly off channel frequency which we could use at the flick of a switch. A channel just for us. That was how I met some of my close friends. It worked great and then CB was legalised and we all went our own ways.

The issue we have is we are all over the country, none of us know each other and we are unlikely to build up close relationships that way. However, in saying that I set up the contact area for that very purpose so people living close could meet and build up relationships.

I can't think of a way that we could do this covering the UK like the masons, with a secret handshake, or frequency. Any ideas? I don't have the pennies to invest on a bit of kit that would be stored in Wales and I may never get to use when I need it.

I think though this is what we should be looking at. A community is much better than an individual.
