UHF radio channels

Could someone tell me what UHF channels the NT and western qld road train drivers use. Just wanted to know so that when I see one closing from behind on a narrow road, I can inform the driver of my intention to pull over to let him pass safely.
Thanks Jon

And I might add...Don't wait until the truck has caught up to you before you apply the brakes to pull over, I have had cases where this has happened and for some unknown reason they seem to do this when there's an oncoming vehicle , that results in the truck also having to almost come to a stop, plan ahead and enjoy your caravaning.

Agreed Doug - getting off the road really early lets you pick a good spot, and if there is a breeze, you can pick the dust free side of the road (avoiding use of the word Dusty, out of respect :-o)
