Ah, is that where the repeater lives? Hmmm. Having just bought a handheld I've been listening in on Ch7. Seem like an interesting bunch. Not necessarily kid-friendly chat, though!

Up at Bribie yesterday for a bit of boogieboarding with favourite daughter and came across a black JK both lowered and gussied up with chrome to the hilt - chrome mirrors, door hinges, grille, light surrounds, wheels, low profiles tyres, aerial, bullbar side steps and rear view mirror. It was daylight, but I'm sure that could see a bit of wire hanging own underneath that hinted at a poorly installed set of ground effect lighting too.

In a situation like that, is one excused from waving? I was a bit concerned that reflected sunlight might cause instant and fatal sunburn to my hand if I were to raise it )

To each his own, and all that, but while it isn't my taste I have seen some nicely blinged up Jeeps. This was not one of them.

No it's on Mt Glorious but Mt Gravatt gives a nice clear unobstructed signal.

I've been on Mt Glorious and because it's so high, you can hear every person talking on every UHF cb channel in south east queensland whether they are using a repeater or not! It's high up there . Channel 40 is full on, as you can hear 50 people all talking to each other...

Aha. There's a fair bit of comms gear up there (looks to be mostly microwave repeaters and a satelite uplink), hence my confusion.

Spotted a nice silver JK Unlimted, flat fenders, possibly a 4" lift and running some very noisy simex tyres this moning up Kedron way. Anybody on here?

If thats my old Black WH with all the gear and decals still on, then thats Damien - he's a family friend who bought that off me over a year ago and moved to townsville - he's also just got a Wk2.
