What radio and what channels do you want in there?

Most are not reprogramable and you also need a license for those channels out of the CB band.

I'm guessing the unit has been programmed for certain channels (like mines, ports etc) and you want it back to stock factory settings? We get our work ones done at a place called National Wireless here in the valley. Not sure if they're around Brissy but the name suggests they're "National"

So you are aware, if you are in possession of a radio which has channels programmed in a licenced band (i.e. not the 40 standard channels), and you don't have a licence for those frequencies then you are breaking the law.

Any new (voice) CB will have 22 & 23 locked out.

I was just pointing out to anyone who may not know, that it is not only illegal to use a radio on a licenced band without a licence, its illegal to own or possess a licenced-band radio without a licence to operate it.

Although detection is hard, the fines can be quite substantial...
