Andy,
Don't worry about Deposit, just give me the cash on the day! that'll be easier. Same to you Luke! I won my CB on E-Bay for £30. Mic, CB Unit and Ariel! All I had to do was "Scavange" a Cigar Lighter Adapter, then Twist the wires together, Make sure the Ariel was in the middle of the roof and SWR check it!
I seem to recall that there was talk of deregulating CB radio licensing, but I've been unable to find the information. Note the ofcom information was dated 2002.
I had a look on 4x4cb.com, and there is no mention of licensing (that I could find). I did'nt mean to cause any panic. Lawrence

And on a slightly funnier note http://www1.mrc.royalmail.co.uk/... This is from the Licensing Centre and it's showing up-to-date Callsigns issued so someone's still buying them but in all fairness, I wouldn't like to see them chase me through Great Alne Ford in a Mondeo!lol [edited by mod to return page formatting]
i think for the sake of £15 for the year its worth it just incase.
might get it ready for the weekend away, could be fun lol  2L SWB 2" lift 31/10.5/15 MT's 12000lbs Winch

Vertigo doesn't fit either and that's Apache-Andys CallSign/Handle! Luke, we'll all talk about it over a beer at the "Social" Hellraising! All I can say is Thank F*** no-one's gonna see me make a hash of putting my tent up on Friday, I've never done this one!! lol
hahaha, oh well im sure we'll get the full story of misshaps on satarday
lets just hope thers been sum recent rain cos i want to test my new tyres out in the mud  2L SWB 2" lift 31/10.5/15 MT's 12000lbs Winch
Well, Rain or not, you'll get a chance to take your Fronty through Great Alne Ford (See relevant thread) and that's a nice long wetroad!
Hmm, Lawrence, did they have a Hose there for spraying the muck out of the Rad???
"Streetly 1" is my callsign on the Motorsports Association (MSA) safety/medical radio frequency. The license is actually issued to and held by the MSA and they issue me with a "Authorisation to use" certificate. I've not used CB for some time (I use PMR), and was waiting to see what happened regarding deregulation. That said, I do use the PA facility on events to inform spectators of pertinent information I am privy to off the MSA set (when the competitors have started, information on delays, top 10, etc)
I seem to recall that there was a stand-pipe tap on site, maybe with a short lenght of hose, but it was a couple of years ago. Good point though - the mud (if there is any) is very clay/claggy and you don't want it to be clogging up your rad if you have a long journey home. Here's a tip - get some tough plastic sheet and make a bib. It probably won't last all day, but it did help - clicky piccy Lawrence
Lawrence ,
I'm sorry to say this and I'm sure others will have noticed looking at that pic BUT You Look Terrified Good Idea though and one I'll be implementing!! Still can't get hold of a Truck Tie-Down Strap but I'm still pestering my Drivers! I don't want to be the only Lemon there with a Day-Glo Yellow Tow-Rope
You probably would look the same, when sat next to my ex (green peace activist, vegan vegetarian, Renault Clio driver) diving my truck for the first time
Lawrence
If you need tow straps just lemme know - it's not surprising how many are used in the Agri industry really

Sorry Pete, i didn't see your message till after work - will pilfer u some on monday if you want? edit - also steve thats not a prob mate - father in law wont want to stay out too long i should think i will await your txt!
How many times did you end up going through Great Alne? lol
thanks for the Straps Andy, I'm now working on a way to link them using Tie down straps and padding the Buckles!!!! Any Luck on the SWR ?
Cheers Andy that would be great
OK, I'm now in the kak!
My works have in their infinite wisdom switched me onto a 4wk pay system! I'm not going to be able to pre-book all the pitches needed for the Saturday (& Sunday in Lukes case) night! It's gonna have to be turn up & hope for the best! Sorry Guys , I will do my best to figure something out! And don't offer to Pay me in advance via Paypal! that's gone t*ts-up and is now in the Red!
