There is a search function. Hit the Advance button, type in a key word or so, something like "uhf" or a couple more key stokes if it not too strenuous.

The answers may help form & refine a narrower question.

One of these:

UHF CB radio

 

And one of these:

UHF CB antenna

 

Consider paying a professional to install it.

I've always preferred GME with all the controls on the handpiece

Good for that but very poor performance if trying to communicate with a vehicle behind you as the signal will be largely blocked or unreliable due to the vehicle and van.

That is why it is important to understand what the OP wants to do with it.

Sadly, he/she has not returned to tell us, so any advise is pure speculation.

Cheers,

Peter

I just bought a dual band Digital Amateur handheld to talk around the world, going through many tutorial videos to learn how to program and use it!

Hi Pieman54,
You've certainly made an impression on your entry to a great forum!

Think about what you want to ask before asking. The first place you should go to is as Whenarewethere stated is the Search, Advanced Search tabs. If you can't find anything there, have a scroll back for up to four pages of the General & Techies sectors, I have added some info there on aerials, etc of recent weeks.

It is up to you to sort out what you want the device to do, where you want to go & then make your decision as to what to buy & get a professional to install it. The major companies - GME (Australian made) & Uniden have been around for years & are very reliable. Oricom is a recent (8 years or so) newcomer & offer good equipment & back up (my new batteries for my hand held arrived in less than a week).

I hope you find what you're looking for & go on to enjoy the forum as most of us do.

Save your breath. He has not signed on since the 27th of August. After the reception he got he probably will not be back.
