Hi I am CJ Henderson CEO Of The American Basketball Association Australia & I have been around radio since the mid 70’s starting out on CB as a teenager and made some really great connections. We had a Browning Golden Eagle in the house and back then I just knew it was expensive as I got older I realized we were broadcasting with a legend. I used CB – upper and lower side-band – HAM and then joined the military as Gunners Mate on board the iconic battleship USS Missouri BB63 (Now In Hawaii) and traveled the world and stepped away from radio.
Now living in Australia 30 years I’ve been bitten by the bug again. I thought Radio was dead as everyone I speak to has not used a CB out here and then those that do just use when hiking or 4 wheeling some businesses to keep in touch with staff out on jobs. So I decided to start looking at how I can connect with other people that Like Listening To Long Distance conversations – and I started looking at the cool ways using technology to connect with radio as well so I created Long Range Listeners!I am trying to get my Aussie HAM license and I am fascinated in all the ways you can pick up radio via the internet – DMR & SDR & Handhelds now days are totally on a new level.
Looking Back – If you think CB’s are only for truckers then you need to meet some of the people here. We used to have Club BBQ’s and everyone got to check out what radio & equipment friends are running in their cars or trucks or Custom Van’s . The Good Old Days!
