Title: How about setting a standard CB Channel for Meet!
Post by: TUFFTEE on September 14, 2005, 09:02:31: You are driving down the road! And you see another Members Vehicle! He or she has'nt spotted you! Where as IF they had had their cb switched on! You could have said hello! and maybe get a reply? So lets set a recognised channel for ALL? Best idea's for a channel not used very much by other user's?
Title: sounds like a plan
Post by: Disco Geordie on September 14, 2005, 09:10:02: Sounds like a good idea to me, never found a channel without a little chatter after time when travelling maybe using a EU channel would work

Post by: TUFFTEE on September 14, 2005, 09:13:48: My Cb is only used for O/R with club members anyway! However what is the EU channel?

Post by: Barry Scott on September 14, 2005, 09:16:53: That is a great idea. I only have a 40 Channel CB so if it is a higer channel I will have to upgrade.

Post by: barmiebrumie on September 14, 2005, 09:18:08: I'm just about to buy a cb so i'll wait to see what happens here & then decide which one to buy,

Title: 2 settings
Post by: Disco Geordie on September 14, 2005, 09:18:21: A lot of cb's have 2 frequency sets 40 Uk channels and 40 Eu channels on a different wavelength

Post by: TUFFTEE on September 14, 2005, 09:22:37: I only have an old cb which has the standard 40 channels!
Title: channle 10
Post by: Disco Geordie on September 14, 2005, 09:25:37: channel 10 is a good idea.
Title: How about setting a standard CB Channel for Meet!
Post by: TimM on September 14, 2005, 09:26:54: I only have a UK CB at the moment so EU channels would be out for me.

BUT.... it's not permanently mounted as I can't persuade SWMBO to let me do it, if I can persuade her then I would buy a new one (which would be EU).

SECOND BUT.... I have seen a lot of other posts on here that suggest channel 30 is 'always' used for off road meets, so I would have thought that that would be a better choice than channel 10.

Post by: landyman Ash on September 14, 2005, 09:28:50: Sounds good. Our club runs on 38 and although we rarely chat in the daytime, its great for off road days as we can all chat and if the sites are big and someone turns up late they can find a club member fast.

Its a good idea and I think will be popular. Good way to meet other MC members at sites too

I like to put the cb on to see who about but all I ever seem to get is foul mouthed truckers up and down the A303.

If my 6 yo is in the Landy then I'm afraid to put the cb on for fear of what he may hear therefore a standardisd channel for Mud Clubbers would be a good idea.

Channel 30 gets my vote.

Tracking them is easy with a couple of radios. The rest you'll have to use your discretion. :twisted:
