What started you in to the world of radio

I started listening to Radio Luxemburg through the night at a very young age of about 8 then started taking the radio apart and looking at how it worked, I then got my first cb radio at the age of 10, a colt 510 and done my first bit of DX'ing on low band after that the cb radio became legalised and I got rid of the colt and bought a Mustang cb 3000 40 channel legal set but hated it and for me this is when cb radio went down hill. I eventually got rid of that and got into my first lot of ssb radio's owning a cobra 148 gtl dx and ham international concorde 2 which were both expanded for 6 bands and had the legal UK channels on them, this is when I started listening to radio amateurs on the 10 metres and knew one day I would go down that route.

i started listning to my frends am radio that he had in his truck alot of years ago so me and my pals got some and fited them in the cars and it all started then ,i was off for a while then just set them back up but then it was fm and a couple of years ago a lad i know sat his foundation test and that is how i am at the stage i am at now and i have met lots of great lads.

Yep my mate had a cobra 19X am set with a dv27 on a buscuit tin lol thats the first time I saw them and was amazed, I was really young we were in the juniors lol
