    You guys are welcome, lets give a huge shout out to Joe at Rugged Radios for making it happen as well! All radios (5 sets: 60watt/660+) that were ordered today will have the new channel programed into it. After a little training, we should be able to get all UTV Crazy Rugged Radio owners the added channel. Any and all who are at UTV Takeover we will try to get programed. See you there!

    Sweet so when you order a new set up you just ask for that channel and it will come already programmed , I plan on getting a radio set up soon.

    Yes, I believe that is correct. I believe that eventually they will be added at the production phase like all the other channels are. I did not request this to be a private add-on. Something to consider, but you never know how many Crazies will join in time!

    Okay, just opened up email confirmation:

    UTVcrazy channel: 155.160 225.7 225.7

    I'm sure you frequency knowledgeable people knows what the above means.

    Interesting that it is 155.160....

    That is the same frequency as Rugged Radio's listed Channel 12 on Bank 1 and Channel 82 on Racer-X.....no biggy that it overlaps onto other usage of the same frequency.....happens all the time.

    What I question is that this frequency is primarily designated for Search and Rescue activities, as stated in the Bank 1 and Racer-X of their 3/19/2014 VHF Mobile listing. I can also say it is used as THE Fire, Search, and Rescue for local governmental mutual aid in Lane County, Or.

    While the Lane County usage has really no bearing on UTV Crazy riding activities here (except Cottage Grove, Oregon Dunes), it does veeify this frequency is a primary S&R usage frequency.

    If we do have this frequency, we will need to verify we're not stepping onto local governmental toes before using in our favorite areas.....Dove Springs, Dumont, Ocotillo Wells, Shasta, Oregon Dunes, Quartzsite, Parker, etc etc etc.

    I do request more info on this particular frequency from the powers to be.... ultimately the FCC possibly. If used, I feel we need to be vigilant in doing a radio check before our first ride in ANY area for a governmental overlap....JMO....I am a bit skeptical right now.

    I wont use it. Here is a good reason why:http://forums.radioreference.com/cal...ocal-area.html

    We need to be using one of these with a PL tone:
    1 151.820 MHz 11.25 kHz N/A
    2 151.880 MHz 11.25 kHz N/A
    3 151.940 MHz 11.25 kHz N/A
    4 154.570 MHz 20.00 kHz Blue Dot
    5 154.600 MHz 20.00 kHz Green Dot

    There will be a little more interference and still be technically illegal unless power output is 2 watts or less , but at least nobody will be interfering with "Legit" licensed business/public safety users. The Rugged "Jeepspeed" channel is #1 on this list.

    I hate to keep being a PITA on this matter, but I really don't want to be one who gets slapped a $10,000 fine and loose my amateur radio license......This is so easy peeps and I just don't understand why everyone wouldn't just want to comply. The process is complaint driven. No complaints/interference=No investigation.
