Need help choosing UHF radio!
Hi all, I need some help picking out a UHF radio for my cruiser.
So far i've been using a cheap motorola hand held, but its just not performing well enough. Too un-clear and not enough range, battery doesn't last long enough.
Looking to spend up to $300. Have found some on eBay in GME and Uniden. Prefer the smaller sized ones too. Remote face may be handy for installation, but still not decided wether its totally required.
Being a complete amatuer in this department, im not really sure what to look for.
For example, heres 3 i found on eBay. similar pricing. How can i compare them, and which would YOU buy?

Any info very much appreciated!
Thanks
Mike

If you want to spend the money, Icom is the best. I reckon GME are next followed by Uniden but GME and Undiden are really personal preference.
Have you looked at Prestige Communication? Great people to chat too. Fastest postage I've ever seen (ordered one arvo and arrived at my desk at work the next morning). Highly recommended.

whats it going to squelch out the fukwit on there in every state all day every day sayin shit like "whats going on out there"AJFeroza wrote:Icom
Also, I read somewhere that Icom has brought out, or is soon to, a dedicated UHF CB box specifically for the OZ market.
apart from that, I cant see what a country dedicated one would have...
maybe buttons, fuqin volume, fuqin channels mate, text on the buttons?
A speed camera would have prevented that!
