Ah awesome news, now i don't have to worry about only having the 40 odd channels i currently use

[Duncan]

seriously though....there are now 40 more to choose from?

Are there any reserved or recommended useages like before?

I guess my vertex cbs might be able to access them with programming

[Deano 1]

[Duncan]

looks like it's programmable to me....http://www.exploroz.com/Forum/Topic/30219/GME_TX-3400_Radio_programming.aspx . try the distributor or a retailer. The guy I got my vertex off is doing it for free.

So you'll be able to hear static over 80 channels now when you press the PTT button on the console Duncan?

Good thing my CB is an industrial unit that is fully programmable with up to 1000 channels of the frequency and band of your choice. I wish I could run different bands at the same time but it requires the laptop/carpc plugged in to switch between band setups
