Took it's time in appearing on the CB newsgroup, been waiting to see who
would post first.
Anyone wants a CB licence between now and the 8th Dec, send in for it as
usual, a licence will be issued, but won't have to be paid for.
So if I start keying up without a licence just now, chance I'll get
busted, go down in the record books as the last CBer to be busted for
transmitting without a licence?

I have been busy over the weekend, so I only saw the Ofcom Email the
day I posted it on this group.

I have even found the time to update the Web site with the information and a link.

why dont you renew your amateur callsign so you can catch up with your
buddies on 7MHz instead of 27MHz ?

ZPK, another knob who hides behind the newsgroup and never reveals himself..

Very true.
Interesting point though, that means there are more folk busted by the
police for committing an offence over the airwaves than those busted
for licence infringment?
