Introduce myself and inquire about licencefree radio

Post by marvin gift basson »

Hi
I am Marvin from Namibia and I joined recently,I am a great fan of the Uri vehicle as I am a Uri vehicle owner myself. I am looking to our conversations and on getting good advice from you.
I would like to know where I can buy licence free two way radio. :thumbup:

Hi Marvin and welcome to the forum! :thumbup:

I'm not sure of the regulations in Namibia, but here such radio's are really little more than toys and don't give much range - the quality is not wonderful and they don't last too long either.

Personally I think you would be better off in the longer term to get a couple of decent VHF radios with the appropriate licences. :winkx:
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.

And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Welcome Marvin. Family Dog (Eric) is our resident guru on radios if you need expert advice and the best service.
Most of us here however have licensed radios due to reliability issues from the license free stuff.

Please post some pics of your Uri :thumbup:
