Die meeste mense gebruik VHF. 29mhz is nie meer so gewild nie, maar daar is nog mense wat dit gebruik.
Ek sal sê dat jy die VHF roete gaan. Die club is besig om 'n VHF kanaal vir ons Hilux4x4 lede te organiseer.

Re: VHF of 29 meg
VHF radios are now more cost effective than 29Mhz and the reliable operating range is considerably better.

Re: VHF of 29 meg
Dankie vir die terugvoer. Weet jul dalk waar kan ek n detachable face radio kry? Ek kan seker die gewone radio kry maar dan moet ek n roofconsole in sit en hul is bietjie pricy. Enige ander voorstelle?

Remote-mount radios is BAIE pricey! So R7k - R8k plus.
Jy kan 'n Kenwood TK7100 op die front console mount, net onder die kommersiel radio. PM jou epos besonderhede vir my as jy pryse wil he.

Saam met wie wil jy gesels ???
meeste van die ou klubs in die Wes Kaap gebreek steeds 29mhz ...
vhf is net soveel beter !!
ek het albei - maar gebreek NET die 29 mhz, want dis al wat die ou klubs gebruik ...
PS - NIE seker wat die Hilux klub in die Wes Kaap gebruik nie (weet wel van n hele paar Hilux club lede wat wel vhf het)

Re: VHF of 29 meg
Die rede hoekom ek n radio wil insit is as mens saam met n paar voertuie ry dan kan jy komunikeer met die ander. Ek is nuut in die 4x4 gemeenskap en is stadig besig om my bakkie uit te kitt

Re: VHF of 29 meg
You should buy the same as the people that you travel with. Although VHF is the new way all your friend might still have AM so if you got VHF you would not be able to talk to them.
This very same issue is even more of a problem with the Ski Boats where most of the older are AM but now most of the Ports want VHF. All ur fishing buddy's have AM. On the boats you now find that a lot of them have both but they do have more space.
My advice is to get the same as your group.

Re: VHF of 29 meg
VHF no matter what they have they will have to change to vhf, jusft a matter of time. Like cameras going digital. Best person to give you advice is Eric (Family Dog).
God luck with your choice.

TECHNICALLY we all know we need to switch over to vhf, it is simply a better system (I have both and KNOW how much better the vhf is)Haboob wrote:VHF no matter what they have they will have to change to vhf, jusft a matter of time.

the SAD reality is that if this gent wants to ride with any of the established clubs in the Western Cape (well 90% of the clubs), then he WILL need 29mhz ....
Frankly for these outings RENT the 29mhz from the club ... :)

Re: VHF of 29 meg
Yep, it is years since we last sold any 29MHz to CT members. All have been VHF radios over the past seven years or so.
Now here's the thing: We have one GME GX300 29MHz in stock, ex a deceased estate but in "as new" condition. Normal SP is R2150, this is R1200, excluding Antenna. We have magnetic antennas available for it as well as a body-mount antenna, at R390 or R580 respectively. First come - first served. Courier delivery to main centres at R85.00.
