hi all

ok i know nothing at all about CB radio....but here is my
situation

Im an australian guy, just taken a job in vietnam, ho chi minh
city.

my girlfriend is in hong kong, my family in australia

vietnam has ridiculously expensive IDD and ridiculously
expensive
broadband - so kinda rules out long phone calls and voice chats
online.

so thinking about CB radio

Why? You have a great opportunity to experience a different
culture
that's both
modern and ancient. Take advantage of your time and don't waste
it on
something
so trivial as CB radio. Try the bun tom, go home, -then- get on
the
radio and
tell everyone about it.

I think he mighta been asking if CB can cover the distance to Hong
Kong or Australia so he can chat with his family in which case CB
is a
definite no.

PS watch out for kids selling cokes.

Wrong as usual, DouGay. CB, conditions permitting, should work just
fine from Vietnam to Australia. And it's not illegal down under; they
can legally answer DX calls, but not initiate them. Whether it's
legal
in Vietnam is another, totally different, question. No matter, since
US "rules" don't apply.

In case you haven't noticed, the conflict ("war" can only be declared
by Congress, and it wasn't) is over, so there's no longer any need to
worry about kids selling cokes.

OK, DouGay: Open mouth, change feet!

Hey anus boy

1. I am not Doug you asswipe

2. Hanoi to Hong Kong is 1000 miles. Hanoi to Australia is 3000 miles.
The guy wants to chat with his family on a reliable daily basis not
call BREAKER TAN FER THAR CQ DX HELLO AUDIOOOOO etc. you fool

3. Kids selling cokes can still cheat you out of a buck
