i know nothing
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 what sort of equipment would i need to get this sort of range? what will it typically cost me to buy? how hard is it to rig up? i know these are really dumb questions, but look forward to some answers that may be helpful. thanks Matt |

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. |

I would suggest getting your amateur radio license, where you can use some
other bandwidth with less interference and use power when needed. That and there are some other tricks for that type of long distance communication. I can't believe some of these yahoos on here, babbling there little NG jibberish. Frank what the hell is wrong with you, what is that crap you posted?

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! |

Actually I have been around. New? No. Just listen alot more than post. But
it just amazes me the class of trash that hangs out to post such drivel and argue over such stupid stuff. I gave the CB Bandwidth and the NG a rest for a while. I had enough annoying people to be around at Fluke. That last thing I wanted was to be annoyed by a bunch of retard waterheads on the airwaves. I pop back up in the NG and answer a couple questions. Which in the end it seems most threads end in a couple baboons trying sling their little e-penis, argueing over childish crap. You know what they say about arguing in NG's, So I need not repeat myself. Obviously you felt the need to reply, so if the shoe fits, wear it. I choose most of the time not to even click on the troll threads. Seems it must just be more fun argueing over the net than on the airwaves anymore. But what I was pointing out was the nonsese, you just seem to take notice, why is that? If your not a bozo on the NG, then you shouldn't need to reply to my comment. But for some odd reason you felt compelled to respone, why is that? Oh I know that is cause I must be "New Newsgroup Moderator". Yeah thats it I'm new to and maybe thinking you can bash on me will make you some how feel more manly. Well keep on, keepin on. I wish you the best of luck and good day to you sir.
