Somebody had to start a thread on HF radios. lol I've got a Codan HF NGT AR radio and love it. Hooked up with VKS 737 and HF tel. Thanks to the VKS bases in Meekatharra and Adelaide. Top service, top crew. I've been able to get through first time, every time. Take care out there. Rossco

Much of its life has been spent in the Pilbara and Kimberly areas of WA and appears to have been set up as a one person operation. Thanks to Telstra for doing all the hard work for me, and now I’m adding my personal touches to convert it to a remote area camper.

G'day everybody. I'm the proud owner of a 2005, white, ex Telstra 4.2TDi ute. I'm putting on my finishing touches, and converting it to a camper. I live near the Stirling Range National Park in WA and love to take my truck to remote coastal areas for a bit of beach fishing/camping Bremer Bay and Pallinup Beach are not that far away from where I live. I'm a country member of the Western Patrol Club in WA. Stay tuned for DX grunt.....in the flesh ( with pics) Take care out there. Rossco
