Hi
Ross, what I said certainly implies that doesn't it.
There is no real difference between the range of a new 80 channel UHF or an old 40Channel unit.
I meant to say this.
Generally the new upper 40 channels are not used frequently, so less swearing etc. However because the upper 40 channels use some of the same space as the old 40 channels, when someone with an old 40 channel radio talks and they are close, you can hear it on the new channel that uses that space, in this example channel 80.
In other words there is interference between different channels when new 80 channel and old 40 channel units are within range of each other. This was always known but going to be a temporary issue until July 2017.
Now it will be a problem forever.
