[-Cheers Gosh darn it! If America's CB Radio was like some of the other countries CB Radios, it'd be a whole lot more fun! So does the average Austrailian CB support both UHF and HF channels? Also, do you have AM, FM, and Single Side Band support on your radios? I'd love to see a youtube video of talking on a typical Austrailian CB with both UHF and HF bands. New Zealand would be cool too! In fact, would love to make a page on my web site comparing CB radio in various countries. My website (http://www.roachguts.org/) is presently down, but will be up this wednesday, when my girlfriend gets paid if you'd like to se about it... I've got lots of changes ready to upload to the server the moment I pay the fee... I uploaded a video of my Cobra 29 LTD BT and Ranger RIT 2950DX (though the Ranger needs an antenna, so it's just displaying 28.0000 for now...) I'll order the antenna Wednesday for the Ranger, then a week or so later, I should be on 10m and 12m, assuming my club can re-give me my General Class test (due to a minor mistake on their part). No biggie, I past it once, I can pass it again... Just that time factor that's bugging me.... .................................................. ............ Neither Australia or new zealand cb sets have hf/uhf radios in one (well not that i know of anyway)and only fm is on uhf...26/27mhz both have am and ssb. I am going to import a uhf mobile from China and it covers 400 to 490mhz. New Zealand was first to allow eighty uhf cb channels then Australia followed ( i think) but Australia has yet to allow use on 26mhz. I prefer to have a uhf radio that i can program myself and also have a wider range of freq's.A similar situation with hf cb,I don't want to be limited to just eighty channels,i want to be able to tx/rx elsewhere.It is so quiet and boring here on 11mtrs at the moment.Most people including the idiots have gone up to uhf cb. The standard uhf cb radios here in new zealand are way overpriced for what they can do.Heck a person just needs to go to the alibaba.com site just to see some of the great prices there |

I have decided on getting the LT-9000 and LT-UV3 (both radios are 400 to 490) and the LT-9000 is just uhf.Altho it can be programmed for vhf (one or the other but isn't dual band) |
