Walky Talkies for Europe

[Speculatore]

Does anyone have 4 Walky Talky handsets that I could 'rent' for a week for a road trip through Europe? They need to be PWR446 compatible so we don't stray on to any government or emergency services frequencies.

Or

Can anyone recommend a good make/brand at a reasonable price? We will only need them for a week in June so I don't want to spend the earth on a set.

I can do you a couple of Ladyboys for the week,they can walky and talky.
Failing that how about a tingy tongy.
Just let me know ,David.

I've used these and they are cheapish and pretty good:

Not sure if they adhere to your PWR446 though.

I bought some Binatone 1100s from Argos, £99 for 4. They are rechargeable (although spare batteries might be a good idea) and work fine.

You're welcome to borrow mine but I only have two.

I've just got a few of these... great price and great quality/range.. there's 5-6 cars doing a euro trip and these were chosen by a ham-radio geek petrol head we may have some spares depending in when you're going I should know in the next week or so how many we need :-)

Hey Paul - don't forget to bring those to Wales with you - something I was going to mention nearer the time if anyone had them (we have a couple of sets too)

I would Tony but I would have real trouble trying to get the money from the people coming with me. One of them really is a miserable Tosser!!!

I recommend you get yourself some more generous mates! Have you been making friends in Wetherspoons again?
