new boy on the block Hi to everyone out there , ok ive been away from this scene for nearly 20 years might be less lol ,my question is this i used to own a cobra 148 GTL DX that covered 26-30mhz having been away so long i was wondering what every one is using these days in terms of transceivrs are you using hf trasceivers or still the old mutimode rigs if the latter where do most of these hide nowadays any help clearing these matters up for me would help loads cheers for now regards mick
Re: new boy on the block Hi Mick, loads of us back on after years break. Lots of 148`s still about but a lot are using HF sets as well. 555 has been dead the last few weeks but keep listening on there as it has to pick up soon-I hope! Where abouts are you anyway?

Re: new boy on the block hello and welcome to the Foxtrot Bravo Group. I stil use a CB/Multimode in my mobile and got a couple of HF sets at home, it all depends where you want to be freebanding. I was using a Cobra 148 and have only just recently sold it, if your just gettin back into it i think a cobra or superstar 3900 would be the cheapest option Loads of helpfull people on here who can steer you in the right direction
