Australia’s leading communication and safety brand, GME, has launched its Australian-made XRS-660 Handheld UHF CB Radio – a life-saving piece of tech that will help drivers stay in touch, even in mobile phone black spot areas
With limited reception across Australia and New Zealand, it’s important travellers pack the right tech to keep themselves safe and connected while they explore the great outdoors.
The XRS-660 is the first of its kind, with built-in GPS functionality ensuring true location awareness without relying on a smartphone to provide location data, making it perfect for new and existing campers, hikers, 4WDers, and those who work in regional and remote areas.
The device offers several exciting new features:
- The first Handheld UHF CB Radio to feature a Colour TFT LCD screen, providing the ultimate handheld radio display for all environmental conditions – even in full sunlight.
- Bluetooth audio connectivity allows the XRS-660 to wirelessly connect to an extensive range of third-party audio accessories, providing users with new and improved ways to stay connected.
- Rugged IP67 Ingress Protection and a MIL-STD810G rating make the XRS-660 the toughest and most advanced Handheld UHF CB Radio yet.
“For those travelling in remote areas, staying in touch is vital to ensuring they get home safe. That’s why GME is proud to launch the XRS-660 – the first-ever XRS handheld radio with GPS tracking capabilities,” says GME safety expert Tony Crooke.
“Building on the market-leading innovation of GME’s popular range of XRS Connect UHF CB radios, explorers and those out travelling rurally, can now have total peace of mind knowing they can communicate with their fellow travellers or workers while their live location is visible without mobile phone service.”
The XRS-660 Handheld UHF CB Radio is available in New Zealand now (stockists can be found at gme.net.au) from GME and has a recommended retail price of $639. Full stockist list available at gme.net.au/find-a-dealer.
