Group Buy: Cb Radios (updated - Dec 23)

[dezz]

toldya

they're stull useful...truckies are always tellin eachother where cops are...so it may be useful

on the same hand, those at the front of the cruise can warn those at the back

[justin911]

ya dezz in country victoria they still use the analogue signals aparantly..

thats why truckies can sometimes get it...

those cb radios definetly cant though...

they dont pickup the 368-370mhz frequency..

but yeah there still cool

[dezz]

nah i meant truckies tell eachother when they have seen a cop....that kinda shit....

[inark]

u will find NO hand helds that have the ability to SEND signals have those bands for a reason. Scanners are completely different to a Radio.

Scanners you cannot broadcast.

[justin911]

i saw one for $1400 that was UHF scanner, and acted as a cb radio....

but yeah i get what u mean

[dezz]

so we're waiting on ferni, jackie and frunkmount to confirm some accessories...

and Abusd, how many units all up are ya after?

[TracidTrax]

so we will be getting a set (2 cb units) ye if this goes through?

[dezz]

hehe nah

nark buys em in 2's and sends 1 to each person....just works out cheaper

[ABuSD]

Thanks nark, im easy if this chap cant get accessories, just lemme know when u need the cesh!!

Im definately gonna get 1 for myself, ive told the boys and if they dont front up with the cash when u need it they can eat a fat one

I may just get 2 cos i know theyre gonna get used!

If i order i get: 2 cbs, 8 batteries, and 1 charger for $110?? (Sorry just making sure)

Does anyone know if i took 2 of these overseas would they still work with each other? Its only dual band mobiles that dont get coverage, cb's are totally different aint they?

Cheers

i think i will just organise the GB for the unit alone... then we organsie a GB through jaycar for the rest or this other dude.... will email him now

[ABuSD]

Sounds good inark!!

[ferni]

yeah do the unit alone, and then do a seperate buy for accessories..

im up for a unit definatly... accessories ill probably just get the throat mic and use AAA batteries/charger i already have.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

good work Ni, accessories through jaycar sounds like a much better deal

[inark]

ok...

waiting for price on units alone including delivery to my joint (can hand em out at the BBQ or meets etc)

Got a price on just the Wall Chargers.... 5 each and total postage would be approximately 12.35 (as one package) so for 13 the total is like 67.35 which is a lot cheaper then Jaycar so i say we go with that.

What say u savages?

[dezz]

i say whatever you think is cheaper, do it

[inark]

ok i just bought 12 of them (cause ferni doesnt need one).

i'll order 12 of the handsets and pay for them now too.

[West]

Just let me know how much and i'll come around fix it up with you Nark.

Thanks.

[inark]

no worries koala!

will wait on payments til they actually get here and i can hand em out to people. easier for me to keep track of stuff that way

[dezz]

nice work knee
