I have a TX 6160XY. Love it. But I wish I could run it off USB power

[joeys-bts]

I had no idea you were Australian made until recently! ill be picking up a few units soon.

[TheFrog]

I work a lot outside a lot in hilly and flat areas. I have a radio in my car but not always in the car what is the best for hilly and flat ground job sites. Awesome video as always

When will GME build a unit with integrated Bluetooth. The Adventure bike market is screaming out for something they can connect to the Bluetooth headsets and still communicate when out of Bluetooth range.

6:50 Yikes, so where are all the other GME Handneld UHF CB Radios made? I thought GME made 'ALL' it's products in Australia? 😐

With both the 6160 and the 6600 being 5 watt units, can I expect the range on both to be about the same or would the 6600 with the bigger Ariel be substantially better? Thanks. Zak.

Besides the unboxing video you already posted, will there be any more videos about the TX6600S?

[MadMasterNeil]

Whats the range on these products? Can the signal be broadcast or received over say a 15km distance are antennas needed or possible?

[robcollie]

i had to fix the ppt on t tx6160 because the warranty ran out on the radio is there a replacement ppt button.

Hi Tony, I've just purchased a GME TX6165XO. I'm unable to find any comprehensive video tutorial on the Net nor via the GME Website. Rather, I can only find descriptions of the units features. There are a couple of videos which are not created by GME, however, they are pretty lame with unprofessional footage and audio including background noise; the videos do not explain what the CB Radio functions are. Instead, the videos tell you the name of functions with no description. Is there a GME instructional video for the above mentioned 5 Watt Handheld UHF CB Radio? I did listen to your '5 Tips' video, thanks for that!

Hi Tony,
What are the key differences between the TX6600S and the TX6600PRO?

[garystimpsonstimpson]

Can you use this in new York USA the five watts we are 110 voltage

[DM-hpct]

Would you expect a range increase by attaching a longer aerial?

[xxKILLERIMPxx]

What would be the best option for construction/traffic control? Between the tx6600s and the tx6600pro or none of the above?

[phillipevers]

Hi Tony, I'm a first time owner of a TX6160. I just wanted to check when we we are not actively using the radio between trips, is the best thing to leave the radios in the twin charger unit or is there another way to take care of your radios when not using for some time?

How do you setup your uhf cb radio tx6160x

[MrBoxxed]

Question - how long will the batteries be good when unused, how long till I'd need to replace typically. I only use WT a few times a year, but always want on hand for emergency situations.

[SeriousSchitt]

So does the TX6600S use the same external speaker mic as the TX6160?

The other question is, I have an AE4707B Medium Barrel Spring antenna for my vehicle unit, mounted on my sports bar, which is too tall to drive into the garage with it up, and I don't use it frequently enough to warrant having it on while driving down the road, even with it folded down on the MBO24B fold down black antenna mounting bracket, so I just unscrew it until I'm ready to go out hunting. Is it ok to use some kind of copper or nickel based anti seize grease on the thread, or will that somehow impede performance?

Thanks.
