Mobile Phones

G'day, thread 100379 is one that I started, it maybe the one you are referring too.

The talstra T90 tradies phone has an external aerial socket, you can either use a patch lead or the car kit to attach your aerial. I have one with a car kit and broom stick aerial which works well. A lot of replies in John's thread gave the T90 a good thumb's up.

A good source of information and equipment, including antennas and the patch leads to connect them to your phone is:

They also sell a couple of phones, including the Telstra T96, which is a simple phone but with the blue tick for rural reception. They're only $49, as well. Also available in many phone shops, probably Woolies, BigW etc.
