Re: FESA frequencies
I just noticed the WAERN pdf contains some additional repeaters, channels 371 - 380. Anyone know if these are 'live' and what if any of the old repeaters (mid band) they link to? They are "live" as you put it and link to the old channel e.g. 372 is linked to 54 in Bunbury. I also noticed ...

Re: Amatuer Band Antennas - need help choosing
Hey All. Just wondering what people are using for antennas on their Handheld radios? Looking for a replacement antenna for my VX7R.. so many to choose from. I guess the only thing I'm avoiding are telescopic antennas as they are way too easy to break. Prefer a dual-band antenna (2m/70cm). Seems to ...

Re: W.A Fire Appliances
UPH maybe UPHR as in Urban Pump Heavy Rescue?? otherwise I've got no clue. Correct. With work locations I cannot always get online, let alone this forum, so response may take a while at times.

Having had an incident recently where I was trying to get some 20 odd vehicles out of a dangerous situation at a fire that was threatening houses, we had the road blocked and the trapped vehicles had to reverse about 100m to get out of the danger zone. Those waiting further up at the road block wer...

Slow reload times, limited use in urban interface areas (they dont used the fixed wings near built up areas even) etc.. The hel...
