So just so that 'old blondie' gets it right, does that mean we "may" have an additional channel purely used by the hilux club, or is it one of the existing channels that is already programmed into my radio's?

Hopefully yes.... different frequency to what ORRA has but we could also be given the same frequency.. but then we don't need the ORRA license for that frequency anymore

I would have preferred them to be slightly more positive - "To give this matter further attention" might also mean they could say "according to subsection C of the Telecommunications Act of blah blah blah, we regret to inform you that...".

But let's rather consider the glass half-full!

Great. Nou moet julle vir die stadige mense verduidelik hoe werk al die k*k. Wat is die afstand en kostes en al. Wat is beter, n mobile unit of n mounted unit in die bakkie. Waar kan n mens met die slim manne gaan praat in die oos rand area. Baie dankie. Lat weet net asb vir al die ander mense(LR,Ford,Amarok ens) van ons radio's ingeval hulle n insleep diens nodig het.

Methinks this might be a reason for celebrating. Let me give it some thought and I will see if we can run some "specials" on radios for a few days, after we receive the frequency. Watch this space!

1. Join the club
2.Apply for a licence
3.Purchase a radio

Family Dog - Oom Eric is the one to chat too.

Well done Cassie
Ek het amper twee jaar gewag vir die maatskappy se lisensie wat ook binne ons landsgrense is. Ek moet se dit is 'n plesier om nie ander gebruikers te hoor terwyl jy ry nie.
Ek het nou met my onlangse privaat trip LCC frekwensie gebruik omdat die res van die geselskap daarvoor programmeer was. In Caprivi omdat my radio op scan was het ek ouens opgetel op Orra 1 wat in Chobe was, en het dadelik my radio na LCC gestel en weg was hulle gesprekke.

Uncle Eric

Hopefully your special will be not on radios only.What about the accessaries (Arials etc)

Post by **Family_Dog** » Thu May 15, 2014 9:07 pm

Good point Dawie. We try to keep the forum price list as competitive as possible but strong enough to avoid updates every week, which are time consuming. But with the improvement of the Rand lately - bearing in mind that all stock has already been purchased on forward cover which is not cheap - I want to use the same price list but offer an overall discount on goods wherever possible, including antennas & chargers.

For anyone to purchase radios, they will have to be valid members of the Hilux Club, which, at R100 per year, is an absolute bargain. Programming of the radios on the ORRA frequencies (ORRA licence required, but that is easy enough) as well as the new Club frequency. Cassie & I will discuss this as soon as we receive the licence.

Hi guys... just so you know it was a combined effort between Eric and myself.

Now to get the ball rolling as soon as we get the detail of the frequency etc.

Vir die insleep moet hulle maar hulle selfone gebruik... hehe... hulle het die strooi gekoop.. hulle moet maar sukkel.

Rakende mobile vs handheld, dit hang alles af wat jy wil doen. As jy reik aftstand soek dan gaan die mobile opsie die beste wees. As jy meer mobiel wil wees en dit gebruik buite die voertuig (soos op 'n trail of so) dan is handheld beter.

Reik afstand van die radios hang af van omgewings faktore. Handheld sal ek se tipies so tussen 3 en 5km waar 'n mobile unit so 15km of selfs meer kan kry (jou antenne maak hier ook 'n groot verskil).

A big thank you in advance!

Sure someone like Joe Bergh will be able to help, not true? Only thing is that he lives in Paarl now... not around the corner anymore
