VHF/UHF transmitter/repeater :y, for police use only... Apparently ::)

Youve been using Google Al, did see that one myself, but not convinced its the same unit, having said that being Radio related is on my list, due to the location near the top of the windscreen and being able to cover the inside of the car.  :-\

 ;D it was the first sensible answer that I found, so I ran with it :y there's an awful lot of shite on tinterweb ::)

Yep, sorry forgot about your prize Al, you win a free Mini Cab fare to Bristol, so you can rumidge around in an Aladdin Cave of spare Omega Parts and selected your items to take home. Will have to the same day that RobG takes he's free trip to West Midlands though, and your probably have to pay your own fare home as well.  ;)

Radio Comms or general use, fitted on the NS of the Panel. Normally a Grey or Cream version of the early philips carin sat nav speaker iirc.
