Hi All I have noticed that the Codan NGT AR Voice has a Tx power output of 100 Watts, while other model NGTs have 125 Watts Tx output. The Barrett 950 sold for...
Jeff, It's pretty simple, really - it's the law in Australia. ACA limit HF radios used for recreational purposes to 100W, and Codan, Barrett and ICOM have to...
Hi Chris Thanks for the prompt reply. The thing that confused me was the info on the Barrett website which clearly states 125 Watts for their 950. I guess that...
G'day Jeff, I used to live in Athelstone, but am now in Glynde. You need the NGT AR, and the NGT AR Voice cannot be upgraded to support data - and is priced...

Jeff, Doug and I scoffed a few cleansing ales about a week ago :-) We have formed the first branch of the Codan Old Boys' Networking Club, and I hosted about...
Chris If my memory serves me correctly, his poison was Coopers (Pale Ale I think). Last I heard he was in Indonesia. When you are in touch next please pass on...
Jeff, You missed *lots* of Doug's travels :-) He went to Islamabad with the UN in around 1993, and ended up in Georgia - Russia that is, not a couple of States...
