Chatterbox: Channel for All PNWRiders: 02/06 - Page 3

Humper · 12-14-2007, 11:53 AM

My bad ... sorry forgot to mention I know that any FRS radio will work, what I was interested in is exactly what you mentioned! *LOL*

Does anyone know if the Nady unit is "usable going down the road at speed"

Are the "Included" microphone, etc worth anything?

• Noise canceling in-helmet headset with PTT or VOX operation with500mW, 2-mile range
• Includes special helmet mount headset with noise canceling/wind blocking mic and quick-disconnect

Allright, since no-one replied I move that we officially make 02-08 the designated channel for Northern ID / Eastern WA (drawing a North/South line through the state centered on Yakima and Ellensburg...

It's only 2 sub channels up from 02-06, and if you're really concerned about not being able to switch from one to the other you can just kill the subchannel option and use 02 wide open.

wtf. i bought my chatter box and no one is ever riding! i guess it is winter, but lets make up our minds and pick a channel that works for everyone.

Mine is always on 2-06.. But then again I only ride the Everett area, unless group rides..

TimothyElkins · 02-29-2008, 10:09 AM

Roland · 02-29-2008, 10:12 AM

i have had mine on for about a month and other than one ride when another rider had one i havent heard anything on 0206.

TruWrecks · 02-29-2008, 11:15 AM

I just got a another chatterbox so I will be using it when I ride most of the time. I mostly just listen for traffic unless I'm riding with someone else.

Hey D,

I just picked up a X1 with Bluetooth and I ride in the Puyallup area...I havent heard anything today but will be listening on 2-06...

Almost 90% of the time I ride I have mine on, listening (and occasionally talking) on 2-06 in the Tacoma area.

I just got mine from Cycle Gear. I was also worried about this. The manager said they have a 100% satisfaction guaranty. He said if it gets wet, they will swap me out for a new one. Thats insurance you cant buy.

As far as the 02-06, Ill run it for awhile.....

TruWrecks · 06-07-2008, 08:40 AM

I had mine in the rain many times. Even in a monsoon type downpour. It still works.

shooter2000 · 06-11-2008, 06:17 AM

Dumb question...Does it have any secured channels? I would be afraid of the local 50 listening in...

TimothyElkins · 06-21-2008, 01:50 AM

still no contact with anyone on my box... only in group rides :-(

Mikey · 06-24-2008, 02:54 PM

I just got mine!!! cant wait to use it, I gotta get my bike back first...........

cupOjo · 06-27-2008, 09:54 PM

Is there anybody that can help on the install of this? I have a suomy and cant get the clip tightend all the way.

shooter2000 · 06-27-2008, 10:21 PM

Stitch Jones · 07-13-2008, 10:40 PM

So what channel did you settle on? I hear people breaking squelch on 206, but they don't have anything to say.

I was told I have to carve out some of the foam because my head wont fit in the helmet after the speakers are installed......

I installed mine under the cheak pads. Cutting works too though. If the speakers won't fit under, try buying smaller ones. I'll show mine if you want. I'm free in the morning tomorrow. Call me, we can meet somewhere between Tacoma and Seattle.
