GME UHF Radio

Choosing the Perfect UHF Radio for Your Outback Adventure

Planning an outback adventure? Don’t forget essential gear like a UHF radio, especially if you’ll be far from city limits. With various UHF options available, from handheld to fixed mount, choosing the right one can be tricky. Here’s a helpful guide to picking the perfect UHF radio for your outback trip:

Identify What Type of User You Are:

• Hikers and Cyclists:

Handheld Units: Having a 5-watt handheld UHF radio such as the TX6160X with a durable, waterproof design (IP67 rating). Perfect for on-the-go adventurers, you’ll need to be sure it has a long battery life too.

• Occasional Outbacker:

Casual Travelers: If outback adventures are infrequent, a permanent UHF installation might not be necessary. A portable, plug-and-play UHF solution like the TX3120SPNP will work seamlessly in any vehicle an be swapped to different vehicles as well.

• The Grey Nomads:

Sticking mostly to paved roads? Look no further than the GME XRS Touring Pack. This pack combines the XRS-330C radio with the AE4018BK1 antenna, creating the ultimate UHF setup for touring vehicles.

• Venturing Deep:

• The Hardcore Off-Roader:

Conquering Tough Tracks: For those who love the most demanding off-road trails, resilience is key. The XRS 4WD Pack is built to withstand Australia’s harshest conditions. It combines the XRS-370C radio with the heavy-duty AE4704B antenna, ensuring you stay connected on any adventure.
