I realize this company is in Perth WA but maybe if you contact them they will know of someone in the east that can help.

Ejan Communications
08 9451 5000
My company uses them for all our plant CB's.

Hope that helps.

I used to know a bloke in Sunshine that used to modify Grant Pesident units . He did mine for me and I ended up with just over three hundred channels and could slide between channels as well ! Add this to the cross band and a 50w transmission booster and it was highly illigal set up with the communications mob! I used to go up to Sky , sit in the carpark before they filled it full of speed humps , and then started closing it off at night , and fit my 22 foot 5/8 ground plate arial up on my tow bar ! I used to talk to people in Brisbane and Adelaide with my CB!

Just thought of another one I used to frequent:

Truscotts Electronics - 97233860.

Its in the little shopping strip on the corner of Bayswater Rd and Eastfield roads.

Great for anything electronic!!
