Communication technology tool launched for outdoor enthusiasts

Communication technology tool launched for outdoor enthusiasts
October 28, 2024

GME, a family-owned 100% Australian private company, is an industry leader in the RF communication technology space.

As the only Australian manufacturer of UHF CB Radios and Emergency Beacon products, the company holds significant market share in these segments through an ongoing focus on innovation and technology leadership.

GME has today launched its latest range of UHF CB radios, the TX6165 aimed at keeping Australians connected in the outdoors.

With class-leading features, including a high-contrast LCD display, up to 30 hours of battery life and a robust form factor built to handle challenging Australian conditions, the TX6165 range is the perfect tool for outdoor enthusiasts, offroaders and campers, agriculture workers and industrial workers.

GME Safety Expert, Tony Crooke notes “whether you’re exploring Australia’s bushland via 4x4, working in remote areas, or staying connected on the job site, communication is key. And with only 27% of the Australian landmass covered by mobile phone reception, you need the right tech to keep safe.

“This is where the TX6165 delivers; providing rugged functionality for all users, without breaking the bank.”

GME has introduced their newest range of 5-Watt Handheld UHF CB radios, the TX6165.

New, class-leading features such as the large, clear LCD display, 2-Watt speaker and a user-programmable button make it stand out from the field.

The TX6165 features class-leading 5 Watt transmission power, an IP67 ingress-protection rating for outstanding performance and years of reliable use in the harshest Australian environments, up to 30 hours battery life, VOX hands-free mode, and a built-in LED torch.

The new range includes the TX6165 containing a full range of professional grade accessories, the TX6165TP twin pack packed in a rugged carry case and the standard TX6165X for users who just need the basics.

Blaze Orange and Yellow options available for both the TX6165X and TX6165TP.

These radios are serious equipment for users who need rugged and reliable UHF CB communication, for both work and play.
