Winch in the bar.

Hi Palmer,
I was also looking for a tx3440 but GME want $171 to upgrade it to an 80ch, so unless you can get the unit for around $50, then it's not really worth it in my opinion.
Did you end up buying one?
Cheers,

G'day Jamie
I didn't get it in the end. With the cost that were being quoted (and confirmed by you) for the upgrade I decided it just wasn't worth it, so I'm still using my 40 channel hand held Uniden at the moment. It does the job for me until I find a decent in-car unit to come along (at a good price).

+1 for decent UHF.....had GME all my live no problems.....Got an Oricom for the prado and not happy at all.
Pay the money and stay with the brand names that have the reputation.
My only issue with the current UHF's coming out is not not many have manual Squelch, I much prefer the manual squelch over the auto.

There's lots of combo deals on eBay. Though truth be told, I don't have an "approved" bulbar aerial. But considering that the 6db whip is only 80 cm's tall and is fibreglass, I haven't noticed anything unusual with it on forestry roads.
I did use a good dose of lock tight on the screw assembly when fixing to the stock hole on my TJM 13 bulbar, hasn't moved or come loose.[FONT=Century Gothic][B][SIZE=4][URL="http://www.pradopoint.com.au/showthread.php?36057-Ryback-s-Flinders-Red-120"][COLOR="#B22222"]'04 120 Petrol Flinders Red GXL[/URL][/COLOR][/B][/FONT][/SIZE]

Got our UHF, but am still aiting for the aerial that was missed off when ordered it.
And thanks to info from other PPers, have rigged the mic without having to drill into the dash.

All looking good there Craig. We just need to get out so it can get used.

Still waiting for the damn aerial - due to a miss-order, they didn't get the one I wanted in.Comment

What you getting? My base is fine but the whip has been reduced to a stump after two separate breakages along the 1200km of corrugations along the great central road. I will be researching my replacement to ensure outback compliance!Originally posted by Palmer View Post2009 White KDJ120R Manual fitted out for family camping and touring - See my Rig Build at [url]http://www.pradopoint.com/showthread.php?27887-Smithy-s-Rig-Build[/url]Comment
