GME TX610

I got one last week and used it on the weekend, worked very well no problems, uses 4AAA and after 4 hours of driving with a fair bit of talk battery still says full. Much smaller than the uniden's, sound quality is good. Only thing is it doesn't have a volume knob you need to use the up and down arrows to adjust volume between I think 7 preset levels and I found the lowest setting fairly load when not in a car with no noise around, also these are the same buttons to change chanels so you need to hit the mode button to get into chanel change mode.also no jack for a battery charger, it needs to sit in a desktop charger. It looks fairly well made but doesn't say anywhere where it's made, it looks like China at a guess. Overall though i'm happy with it.

Antenna is fixed, if it doesn't say where it's made it's probably not here but it seems ok. I was suprised some of their other radios are made here, I didn't think it would be possible considering the cost you can get stuff made in Asia for.But I'm glad we can still buy some Aussie electronics I thought those days were gone.
