I've owned this Uniden Uniace 100 since December 1986, and it was second hand when I bought it. Although I have an Amateur Radio Foundation License, I still have a soft spot for this radio. I was unemployed, having not long left school, and saved up £30 from my giro. I bought it (boxed with the manual), from Night Rider, a CB shop which was in the front of a hairdressers shop in the Sandgate in Ayr. I wonder if anybody remembers that shop? Sorry for the poor quality video. The skip appeared very suddenly and I had no time to sort out lighting, Unusually for this time of year it was "local" skip, from within other parts of the UK and also it was after 5pm, well after sunset, when you would expect the HF bands to be shutting down. The first conversation is between Graham (108CT052), a local station in Irvine, and Bill (26CT482) in Kent, England. Other stations overheard include operators in Newport, South Wales and a mobile station on the M20 near Dover. At 3:30, an English station is replying to what is obviously an ignorant Scottish station. Note, these abusive and ignorant people do not speak for this nation. We are happy to speak to any station, English or otherwise. There are idiots all sides of the border and it's unfair to tar us all with the same brush. And to (respectfully) answer your question, the ROMANS built Hadrian's wall. Neither the English or the Scottish ;-) What's more amazing about this clip is that the only antenna I have for CB is a loft mounted 7 foot <b>...</b>
