[G0DF4Th3R]

is it a ufh or uhf radio? where to get one? is any brand fine?

[Boostzor]

Yep most brands are fine its UHF:ultra high frequency just make sure u get 40 channels so u can stay on the same as the rest of us.

[G0DF4Th3R]

Unidens are pretty good... I've got one of their 5 watt handheld jobbies... keeps me happy...

My old man has an icom 5 watt handheld with CTCSS and all.... that seems pretty good too....

Other than that, the most popular radio's on cruises and up at the track are the $100 Unidens everyones talking about here... They're pretty good if you're all in a bunch, but if you get separated, you might need to relay messages....

Now.. if you were really dodgy, you'd find an ex-commercial in car unit, with about 40 watts on tap... but that would be illegal....

EDIT: ignore this....

got a server message saying it was too busy after the last post... so went back and hit post again.... looks like it wasnt too busy after all :-(
