VHF radio
Submitted by pale ale on Sat, 2011-10-22 09:47
Hey guys,
I need to score a new VHF for the boat. Does anyone have a link to the best deals around? My 27meg is buggered so I believe I will need a new VHF antenna too as they are different.
Have seen some icom radios in USA website for $140

i got a icom from the us very happy with it imo they make the best radios
getting the bottom line final answer from a bunch of blokes that use false names and put smiley faces at the end of paragraphs is not the best place in the world to get the information you seek.

May I ask which site you
May I ask which site you ordered it? I know I should buy in Australia, but in Karratha it will be $300 more than USA. If I buy from Perth, postage plus the increased price will still be $200 more than USA. Thats a lot of boat fuel
Oh, and did you order antenna from usa too?

Gday Pale Ale
just bought the GME GX600 from Whitworths. $199 + $22 postage to K-town. Arrived in 2 days. Hard to beat I reckon.
