give up with your sarcastic crap, your either jealous you cant do the trip because your stuck on that prison island we call taswegia.

or your just a tool. and a tool that isnt of any use while on the track so left out of the toolbox altogether.

I was actually looking at one the other day on special, it was a Uniden for $300, i guess it was a superceded model and was last in stock deal.

And i think i might actually buy it, it was a desktop/in car with scanner and digital interface.

Just be careful of any hidden costs for installation, antenna, coax, etc.. But could be a good investment that you could always sell off after you've finished trecking around

ill do the installation, and i have been looking at long antenna and cabling to ensure i get maximum reception, even if i end up buying a lower frequency unit. And i think ill keep it, after having so much fun driving around Melbourne with all the other Minis.

I didn't see it on the list but im sure its a given. Jerry cans with spare fuel and the spout attachment.
I would change torch to head torch personally. They make it so much easier as you have two hands free to do what you need. Make you look like a bit of a prat but its worth it.

D

Just looked at your list, and i thought maybe an air filter might be a good idea, its pretty dusty out there yea?

Brake fluid wasnt on the list too, but i presume you've got some

I should update the list, i already have a lot of stuff in the car already

Obviously a toolkit, grease, brake fluids, fuel cans, gaskets, and so on that i had for the first stretch of outback.
