They do one thing well, and that's to reduce the driver's anxiety, as long as you don't destroy his illusion. Here in the US, they're sold primarily to reduce deer collisions. But they're a scam. One study from the University of Wisconsin showed that of the whistles tested, they only emitted at approximately 35 mph (56 kph). And the sound they made was outside the hearing range of all deer species in North America. At about the same time that study was being done, the State of Georgia, if memory serves, put deer whistles on 50% of their motor vehicles via random assignment. After one year, there was no difference between the vehicles with and the vehicles without the whistles in regard to the number of deer strikes.

@@4wdingMates In a campervan often the difference in 1 bar and no service is sitting the phone on the roofrack and if i put one these aerials up there then it would open up further.

Might buy a booster in meantime, its mainly to hotspot internet or just get internet on the iphone. Thanks.

Hi mate I sold them not long after video as very under whelming results went back to halogen I think at the time. Since had newer versions the dominator x osram is good value. Currently have the 9" lethals by them and they are great for the price and put out good solid light. There has been so many variations of their lights so when people give opinions on them confirm which model exactly and how long they've had it. I have a video of the xtm lights up also which are similar to these underwhelmed also. Also have a video of the osram ones too. I'll post a video soon of my current ones. Cheers and thanks for watching.

AE4704B 2.1 dB perfect for barringtops NSW and Similar terrain plus also city driving too * Aw4706B black 8.1db 2100mm whip - use that one when drove west coast of WA , Nullarbor plain to port Augusta SA , also from port headland via darwin , Katherine , tenaent creek and over to Mt Isa QLD , * Also have the Aw4705B black 6.6db 1050mm too and use it up and down east coast on main highways. When I had the GME tx series uhf had an older 6.6 1m antenna pus a Uniden 3.0 db both on bull bar . Both antennas were great did what I needed .

Over here in NZ there is very limited range of mobile antennas available. Jaycar over here only stock one or two UHF & AM CB antennas.So you are stuck with what they stock..Also mountings,no Gutter grips for vans or cars,no mounts for Bullbars etc.Also they are only selling hand helds now.They dont stock mobile rigs anymore. They dont do GME Oricon or Uniden anymore. Only hand helds for kids.So if wanting to install a mobile UHF or AM CB we need to go to Repco or Supercheap Auto.Even they have a very limited range.So no one over here is speicalizeing in CB or UHF radio anymore.Not like the old days of Dick Smith,he had everything for everyone.We all miss Dicky licky !
