GREMLIN ALERT Neds post went duff, I'll repost wot I can.
'The Local Ned'
I can get one that serves both freqs then thats what I will get , as it covers 2 of my needs - base to mobile comms , and mobile to mobile comms that base can also listen in on. The UV5-R should cover that with a change of antennas.
Note: Change of antennas really only needed when switching from portable to base use.
Exactly my intention LS- All the PMRs can be used as mobile comms - with the added benefit that the UV5-R - with an adaptor at the antenna socket - can also be used with a base antenna.
The CB will become my early warning system , not my day to day comms system , PMR will do for that.
Also good for whole local territory intelligence gathering....what's going on several hours away from you....this is the early warning that I think you mean?
Once again spot on mate , We'll no doubt hear a lot more breakers on the CB than on PMR , so anything happening locally will be over the CB airwaves in an instant.
No point in having a 4W CB walkie talkie if you're in the middle of the new forest.
CB will still work , but its efficiency will be reduced greatly - just like PMR will be, but as I've said , if I can relay a PMR signal to a repeater then it might offset the reduction in signal strength and range.
See Below.
" Exactly right. Advanced PMR
type radios like the UV5-R allow for complex post SHTF possibilities. WE can come up with standards ( programming protocols) to share across our SUK community to facilitate this. If anyone wants this functionality, by purchasing the same grade of radios PLUS computer cable and software, we will be able to provide the programming as small upload files as e-mail attachments which will configure the radios for them automatically."
