Apparently, most of the towies have moved to TETRA...

It'll be great if you have any analogue freqs for them :P

not sure if the are correct going to run id tracker see what i get.
Jam Communications has 2 frequincies registerd aus wide 24 hours,
QUOTE : yes it is a uhf radio with the normal 40 cb channels and the towie private channel.its also has the capability of having 88 extra channels put into it so if you have a company channel now as long as it is in the right frequency range it can be programmed into this radio. if you are able to listern to police,ambos or fire services in your area they can also be put in. or any other interesting channels you want to listern to. programming has to be done by me as read and write protection is an activated feature on this radio.
the radio itself is $450 and $420 per hand held they are HYT radios . it is a specific type radio that needs to be purchased through me and the towie channel has scrambler enabled on it and push to talk id. no it can not be programmed into any uhf that you might be running unless it is the same type as what is on offer.
