I wish the listeners a very merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous 2022, and also apologise for lack of episodes and explain why this has happened

In this episode I discuss the terrible flooding that has occurred in Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands and how the Amateurs in those countries are helping with the effort where they can, mention how the Albrecht AE6120 is available for sale in the UK at Nevada Radio in Portsmouth, a new distance learning course being run out of Bath for the Full licence level and a look at the August Radcom, as well as discussing my two latest YouTube videos.

The featured pizza for this episode is the Hearty Food Co. which is the cheap Tesco brand, thin crust pepperoni pizza, available to you for a whopping 67p

I update listeners on the delay of podcast episodes being released, hopefully will get that remedied soon, the issue has also had a knock-on effect on my YouTube channel so I hope to get new videos put up soon as well

This belated episode I discuss Simon the Wizard reporting on the coming soon Albrecht AE6120 CB radio, cover my handsfree mic for my FTM-400XDE, and discuss openings on the 10-meter band with a short audio clip from a twitter and YouTube short of a 10-meter repeater which I believe is in Poland.

The featured pizza is the Domino's Beef Doner

In this episode of the podcast I add more about the possibly upcoming President George II after looking on President's own website, discuss the videos on the Yaesu FT4XE handheld by YouTube channel 'knoxieman', discuss my latest YouTube video where I attempt to get a QSO successfully through the GB7LE repeater, touch on why it really is not really needed to run more power than needed including pointing out it could be a lesson the burner brigades that sit on CB channel 19 could learn (though I know they won't) and touch on how these same individuals could be history because of the EMC compliance rules that are due to come into force, and also a report from the RSGB on a local to me Amateur radio club that has managed 400+ continuous nets since the beginning of the coronavirus lockdowns last year.

I also mention that as this is the third episode I best get it on the usual podcasting services people go to to get their podcasts.

The featured pizza is the Absolute Banger from Domino's

In this one we look at my last YouTube video, the May Radcom, report on a distance record set in the microwave bands and also touch on the alleged President George II multimode CB radio that mockups are doing the rounds on the world wide web

The featured pizza is the Iceland Takeaway Stuffed crust BBQ Meat Feast

In this the first episode of the podcast I pay my respects to the Royal Family after the sad passing of His Royal Highness Prince Philip Duke of Edinburgh, talk about the cheapest CB radio on the market, a ham who tries to cook hotdogs with RF, an oops moment thanks to bad manufacturing of the Moonraker Minor Plus CB radio, and a few other things too including mention of the Coronavirus pandemic of the last year resulting in rally and event cancellations and also my next YouTube video.

No pizza featured in this episode though one should appear in the next one.

In this introduction I (try) to describe what the podcast is all about and what to expect content wise, bearing in mind that this is my first foray into the world of podcasting and I hope to have the first episode in the not too distant future
