I just bought a Uniden UH400SX in the 80, works well, has the same features as my old TX4400 I had in the Nav, I was going to grab another GME but for the $200 price difference I went the Uniden, I'm all for Australian made when they are competitive on price, but nearly double is a joke.

i went through this but didnt have much luck, Police tend to use digital channels, sometimes you hear something but its rare. I used this site, lots to choose from.

GME 3200 works allright for me. Nice and thin, fits most places.

Good old Uniden UH088 Sundowner for me! Does the job and fits in nicely with the CD player.

Put them in this afternoon, heard a little bit, 466.850 was busy.
I can pick up noise on quite a few channels but it just sounds like someone is keying the mic over and over, no voices, anyone know what that is?
Edit: This page indicates that a lot of these channels are digitally encrypted. Answered my own question

simple little uniden UH012sx with elevated whip, unit fitted neatly in centre console under cupholder,nice and neat and away from prying eyes
I use a Simoco remote head unit, it can be programmed via a PC up to 1000 channels and tunable from 1 to 25 watt, 25 watt is illegal in UHF CB so it is maxed at 5 watt. I have all the UHF chanels in, VicRoads chanels in too as they attend crashes and road blocks in Melbourne so I can find out "Why I am doing only 5 k's an hour on a freeway" and work out alternative routes. In addition it has CFA channels, DSE and SES and police country regions (Rural in Vic have not gobe digital yet). The CFA, DSE and SES I can also transmit and is only there if I get so lost I need real help as I tend to do a lot of stuff alone while out hunting. There are some private chanels in it as well. I also carry a portable UHF that also has the private channels so the car and myself can still talk with a degree of "Not disturbing anyone else". I have another Simoco as well, two units can be hooked up to run a portable repeater unit, that will be done in the near future, in effect the car then acts as the repeater coming in on one channel and transmitts on another which give considerable range. The aerial is a GME, white fibreglass job about 6.5 db gain. I can usually talk in a straight line about 8 to 10 ks on UHF.
Am I passionate, not really, just have learnt that good comms in the Auzzie bush is a life saver.

GME 4400 does the job just nicely
Just finished installing a Icom 440. Now I just need to work out all its features. Nice install as there is no visible signs of the head unit as it is mounted under the drivers seat. I am very happy with how it all went together.
