Reminder on UHF channel 5/35 from ACMA

Come in CB radio users! UHF CB channels 5/35 are reserved for emergency messages only. As peak bushfire season approaches we’re reminding all CB radio users to use other channels so 5/35 are available for emergency services or someone calling for help. https://twitter.com/acmadotgov/status/147060070...

Prestige would have been my go-to as well, didn't know they've gone to online only.

Yep, I think the killer feature is for things greater than voice, like live video from train riders (etc)
