I'm going to do a group buy on these $99 Uniden UHF radios that we use on cruises and stuff.

put your hand up if you are serious about getting one, im going to push for $90, need 10 people or more.

The buy should occur in one month (early november)

only reply if you are SERIOUS.

these things are really handy on cruises/saturday night at the gold coast (street racers go on the same channel) etc

Err... Don't get the $78 one..

It sucks. For one it's got less features (Probably about one less) and two it takes 3 AAA batteries. You can get AA batteries from supercheap .. a pack of 4 for $1. Cheap as chips.

$78 isn't on special. That's how much they are week after week to buy.

THIS is the one you want.

NIZ30.. This cb is only used for cruises and the like to keep in contact with everyone about when the poo is on the stick, or the cops are in the pen (In otherwords, when the cops are around) or split second decisions on where to go..

If you want one that will go further, you will have to buy a more powerful unit that sits in your car. We have a little hand held as well as the car unit. The car unit (which also has 20 scanner channels) cost us $580 or some crap which we dont really use unless we are out on a cruise.. which mind you the little uniden hand helds do just fine :D

No.. Because cops play in a pen. And when you are saying "The cops are in the pen. " Meaning the cops are in their playing field with cameras and stuff... Waiting to book you.. So you are in their pen..

Pfft.. I understand it :)

that link seems to have broken

this one worksTry Again

Yeah Slip ya **** put me down for one. But we should be able to get a better deal than $90 for a bulk buy. Firstly ask them for how much for ten....get that price. Then ask now how much for cash?.... And then ask why are they THAT price? You will be surprised how much money you can save....

I just got $40 a tyre off each tyre for the tyres on the 4wd by doing that.. It does work.

Cheers Shitlips

unfortunately gary you knob polishing leaver of sleeping goods at steves, we seem to be the only solid buyers at this stage, so i may just go get the best price i can for us, but if i do that i will contact you with what i can get them for.

its not that $78 one.

ps. i ordered parts off steve. :)

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
