Do you really want 27meg?

All the electronics stores have these really cheap at the moment eg. http://www.biasboating.com.au/radios_two_way.html BIAS $148.90 for a decent GME !! I've seen them for under $50.00 secondhand at Cashconverter stores.

27meg are on the way out - stick with VHF and take a CDMA mobile with you. :)

G'day Tim,

I have a Uniden Sea Dolphin that came out of our project boat (cat)

It still works fine and I will swap for a carton of xxxx gold.

How cheap. Brand New the USELESS things are only $99.00. BRAND NEW

Save your money and your life. # # # # BUY [save-up for a VHF].

Go to "www.acma.gov.au" # #the Aust. Government Communications Authority or your local CoastGuard or VMR [ Volunteer Marine Rescue] for help.

If you are worried about Licences for either you or you radio go to YOUR local C/guard or VMR.

Sure I can understand you already have a 27Meg attenna, BUT when was it last checked for corrosion, connections, SWR [too technical to explain- BUT VITALLY IMPORTANT] Sun Damage ETC ETC.

Too many improbables to rely on, for "Life Saving" conditions.

IF YOU ARE REALLY STRAPPED FOR CASH, buy whats offered [better than NOTHING AT ALL]

BUT IF YOUR FAMILY {CHILDREN, WIFE etc is going out "ON THE WATER" }

For yours & us poor "B's" that have to get out of bed at some ungodly hour of the morning/night .

DO THE RIGHT [CORRECT] THING #
