Welcome to the official Charlie Tango DX Group CB And Amateur Radio Forum. 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.

If you join Charlie Tango you'll be able to access member-only ections, and use member-only features such as customizing your profile, sending personal messages, voting in polls, viewing modifications and more.

Given Lee's Track Record with HF sets, if you miss the 840 you can probably have it again in a couple of months Lee changes Radio sets more often than Uggs combs his beard.

I'll stick with the ft840, Cobra 29 and my little PMRs. Its got to that point now when I think "WHY the heck did I get rid of that"
