Hi Snowys, can I plug this radio into an aerial like this one to increase its range? https://www.snowys.com.au/580mm-heavy-duty-radome-antenna-uhf-cb-21dbi-gain-ae4704b-black

G'day Joanna,
Usually you can do something like that with handheld radios, but I believe an adapter is required. I'm not 100% sure what the solution is, and we don't carry the full range of GME gear. I'd recommend giving them a buzz to get more advice on your specific setup, and if there are further parts you need shoot us an email at service@snowys.com.au. We'll be able to look into a special order for you.
