    Best UHF?

    I need to buy a UHF for the D4.
    I’ve had Icom, Uniden and GME in the past and can’t fault any of them. Been seeing a few Oricoms around also.
    Obviously I don’t want to spoil/clutter the interior so I’m leaning toward one of the units where the actual unit is under the dash and the controls in the mic.
    What do you all recommend ?

    After looking around, check this site out. Normally you can buy here cheaper for the same product found elsewhere. They sell just about everything to do with comms.

    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    Have you considered a 5W handheld. Most nowadays have the facility to remove the antenna and connect an external aerial. My new 80 channel also has a plug in microphone.

    The reason I put it there is because like many others, I go to general chat first. I was looking for fairly quick response and got it.

    Thanks
