Leave it. While not necessary, there are benefits to having 2 UHF's.

Dear Mr MLC.

We know you have a lot to say and having 2 UHF's is only going to allow you to say more, all at once. That can only be a good thing.

ps if you remove the 'roger' beep even more talking can be done.

1x 80 Watt Uniden 80 Channel UH808ONB and a large GME aerial.

80 Watt !! Do your lights dim and a shockwave emanates from your aerial when you are transmitting?

Oops, 80- channel. Although, no harm in boosting the range, 80 might be a touch high though.

There are no emanations unless I bend over.

Noice!

Whats going on with the Coopers though? Is that wear on the sidewall of your driver's front?

Its an unusual event where the temporary driver is vertically challenged and cannot see over the steering wheel. She then proceeds to park the vehicle as close as she can to the curb and ripping off raised lettering and black rubber from said tyres.

Needless to say she will be banned once the new rubber is fitted in March.

Also decided I need to protect the base of my GME aerials. 32 mm rubber stopper does the job fantastically.

Don't be too harsh, it happens while off-roading too. My Bridgestones are doing the same and it's not from gutter bashing, the lettering is getting all cut up too.

SWMBO and I spent the festive season in the Vic Hi Country with Mrs AJ120, her son and their chauffeur. During that time, the discussions on fridges happened to arise and with the help of a quiet and assuming PP member, being the husband o Mrs AJ120, we managed to convince SWMBO that we NEED an ARB fridge. She agreed.

Correct, I have permission to buy an ARB fridge! She said I should do so before the next trip! She also said we need new tyres! Correct, SHE said we need new ones and agreed they should match the T-Van tyres being STT Coopers.

I know this all sounds like BS but its true. The fridge will happen in March when the 4wd show is on to maximise discounts and the tyres together with black Dynamic rims will also be around March.

I offered AJ a beer for his efforts but he doesn't drink, so to be fair, I will continue to let him build stuff for my rig.

mlc - presently in the good books and in acquisition mode.

Sounds like a great result. You should continue to let him hang around and see what else you can get.

Just noticed I haven't added a significant mod to this build-up thread.

Love this camper!
