A lot of members in Luxembourg have it.
For long distance you can think to buy a UHF/VHF transmitter.
Also a good supplier:

Got one of these from bobbycrispbox before he emigrated. Never used it so could be persuaded to let it go for a few scheckles. :whistle:

Was thinking £30/€35. Will not be down souff til next again Sunday before heading off to the Pyrenees so can't check it or even see what I've got til then. Can do that on the Sunday and post up. Thought it would be nice and easy if someone on the Pyrenees trip wanted it wrt logistics.

I think John had first dibs, but if most of the bits are there then I'd happily take it off you Del, as Ian says, cracking price :thumbright:
