Every Sunday from 10:00am 27.285 USB
The Southeast Sunday Morning Net, one of the largest CB radio networks in the UK, has become a staple of the southern radio community. Founded in late 2020, this network has grown exponentially over the past few years, attracting hundreds of radio enthusiasts. What started as a small group of CB radio operators has blossomed into a beloved weekly event, offering an inclusive and welcoming platform for all, whether seasoned operators or newcomers.
The network, operates on Single Side Band (USB Mode), and was initially chaired for the very first time by William 26AM081, whose idea helped establish the net's early success. Under his guidance, the net's concept began to take shape, focusing on open communication, friendly chatter, and technical exchange. However, as the network grew, so too did the demand for a fresh direction.
In 2021, James (26JS007) took over as chairperson of the Southeast Sunday Morning Net. His leadership and passion for the radio community have played a significant role in the network's rapid rise to prominence. Under Stapleton's stewardship, the net has gained a loyal following, with new participants joining every week to take part in the lively and engaging conversations.
A Vibrant and Expanding Community
The Southeast Sunday Morning Net has become more than just a weekly check-in; it's now a social event for a diverse group of CB radio operators who share a love of radio technology and communication. Every Sunday, operators from all over the southern part of the UK join to share stories, discuss technical issues, swap tips, and, most importantly, enjoy the camaraderie of fellow radio enthusiasts.
With a dedicated following, the net has expanded to include not only local UK operators but also a growing number of international participants when band conditions allow who join the conversation, making it a truly international event. The network’s popularity has been driven by its welcoming nature and commitment to maintaining a positive and respectful environment for all members, regardless of their level of expertise.
James : Leading the Way
James, known on the airwaves as 26JS007, has become a central figure in the success of the Southeast Sunday Morning Net. His approachable style and dedication to the community have earned him respect among operators of all experience levels. “I believe that radio is about more than just technical skill,” says James. “It’s about creating a space where people can connect, learn, and grow together.”
Since assuming the role of chair, James has overseen the implementation of more structured net controls, helping to ensure smooth operations and a steady flow of conversation. His leadership has kept the net growing, and his involvement has allowed for the continued success of the Sunday Morning Southeast Net as a key part of the UK’s CB radio culture.
Looking to the Future
As the Southeast Sunday Morning Net looks to the future, its growth shows no signs of slowing down. The network has plans to host more special events and encourage participation from even more operators, both within the UK and globally. Additionally, new initiatives aimed at fostering technical education, mentorship, and collaboration are on the horizon.
