Hook it up and see if it works. I'm not familure with NDI. Is it a 40 channel, or just a 23 ???

Not sure. I'll pull it out of the cabinet tomorrow and mess with it.
thanks,

Okay... My dad says that it has 40 channel plus the different "bands". Did know exactly what he was talking about but said it ended up being 123 total channels. It has a PA option. Is this gonna be good enough? Does anyone know how far the range is on something like that? /forums/images/graemlins/1zhelp.gif

Thanks in advance!

What kind of range you'll get out of it depends on a few things. I would recomend you take it into a CB shop and have it peaked and tuned. Let them set you up with a good antenna and make sure the SWR's are okay. I like the 102" whip, but it's a big antenna. For a shorter one I'd use a K-40 or a Wilson 5000.
