onebobs new CB
Here's some pics of my new CB set up - it's a GME TX3100 running into an RFI glass mount. Antenna SWR after tuning is 1.3:1. Not long after purchasing the news came out that they're expanding the UHFCB channel allocation effective January 2011 with current equipment becoming illegal on January 2014. details here http://www.sydneyfire.net.au/Forum/v...php?f=22&t=285

Love jargon definitions onebob - "expanding" the frequency range, therefore no room for current equipment.
Surely this was foreseeable at the time the transition to UHF occurred, only a few years ago? Either regulatory short sightedness or industry planned obsolescence, IMO. (Says him who knows next to nowt about coms!)

Most frequencies will be new, although some will remain. As most people will not know of the changes, I expect it willl be a nightmare with those on the old frequencies will interfere with those on the new.
