Thanks for the reply. What would a more expensive model do that this one
doesn't?

Better transmitted clarity but most importantly if your in a close
situation have better selectivity , ask kev as I think he uses them more
than me ( both have ham tickets though)

I'm no expert but I used to sell Uniden ones and quite a few people who had
some experience with CB's specifically _didn't_ want them.

GME make a good UHF CB, the remote face unit I use http://tinyurl.com/qxlm8
works the best out of the three units I own, one of which is a (admittedly
older model) Uniden.

Out of curiousity Atec, are Jew's allowed to use Ham radios?


And did you get hold of that place for the used oil at all?

There's some not too bright people on ebay. This unit is going for $290 inc
postage and is 2 years old.

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Uniden-Radio-...QQcmdZViewItem

you can get the same thing for $308 inc postage which is brand new with
receipt and 2 year warranty:

Uniden don't think selectivity should be a feature of their new small
radios so they leave it out
in any high RF area(such as any city or mountain top) you will hear
every signal in the UHF band, that includes all the data signals used by
trunking systems and taxis etc.
and you WON'T be able to squelch it out

their transmitted audio is also awful, usually very muffled and too harsh

GME radios are Australian made and have much better selectivity(though
if you drive close enough to Optus TV Cables you can hear the audio of
one of the channels on CB CH14)

get a GME first
then one of those crappy Icom 400PRO(but do not bump it up to 25 watts
as it will only last a few months)
and as a very last resort get a Uniden
the larger Uniden radios(UH088, UH100 and the newer I think UH095) are
not so bad with selectivity
but their audio is still crap
