So as the momentum is around with more interest in UHF CB and what or indeed if it can be realised and made to work there is another new radio on the market. This time from Midland. This time dubbed the G7 XT-A (Australia) it is working in the 477MHz UHF Band and so makes people wonder if any of the others from this range can be made to work on this band when configured differently.
