GME TX670

G'day all.

First post - long time reader...

Looking at some hand-held UHF radios. Anyone has the GME TX670?
What are they like for car-to-car comms?

There are some good deals going on right now and I thought they might be worth it...

Cheers

Hey,

The 2 Watt unit will be fine for car to car comms. I have a 2 1 watt units and we get around 10-15kms line of sight so you will get a little more.

I just purchased a GME TX 680. Excellent!

A great receiver. The transmitter is 1 & 3 Watts.

You should be able to pick one up around $200 mark or a bit less.

Cheers and happy trails

GME recently had a promotional sale pack where in the one box for the one price you got a Tx3220 [replaces the Tx3200] in car unit and a Tx670 2watt handheld ,, paid round $320 so the handheld almost a freebee as single unit price for the in car unit is just on $300 ,, both units work fine.

Thanks guys,

I saw the deals - hence my post, but I am after the TX3440 (controls in mic) due to space limitations, and these don't come with a bonus hand-held.

The TX670 sounds like good, budget alternative. I'll see what the others are doing - I might just go all out and get the 5W TX6200...

The 6200 is a good workhorse with lots of features - 5W and 1W settings - Selcall - CTCss etc - at show times they can be on special with a cradle fast charger tossed in etc. Got mine 3 years back for $399 I think.
