    I can get the GME for $370 and the Icom for $410. Anyone seen them better than that and where?

    Cheers

    That seems good Garry.

    Prestige communication Prestigecom UHF CB - GME UHF CB Radio are about the same. Thats where mine came from, and they are about as cheap as you will generally find.

    Gary,
    When you get your radio, get a remote speaker. If I remember right, they're not much. A remote speaker from an old mobile phone car kit should work fine.
    I'm audibly challenged so I have mine up near the good ear.

    I was looking at where to mount mine in the 101. I rekon here in the triangle between the roll bar and hood bow.

    I'll be using worm drive hose clamps to hold the remote speaker bracket (the remote speaker attaches to the bracket of course).

    regards
    Mick

    Thanks Mick - that is one of the reasons I want a radio with the speaker in the handset - I am thinking of going with the Icom.

    have several icoms very good radios ic400 pro best of all but in a 101 most radios will need external speaker unless you mount the unit behind your head and full volume

    Just looked at the ic440 on the icom site it has a .5 watt speaker in the mike and a 5w plug for external speaker if your 101 has roll bar like micks you could mount it on the bar right behind drivers seat easy to reach and hear would apply to other radios as well

    Do you have a 12V DC supply in the 101?

    My 101 has separate 12v and 24v systems - the Icom can also be run off either system.
