Excellent video Adam! I thought you guys were using helmet comms but this is a great idea. I never liked having the helmet comms always in my ear when Chase and I had them.
Thanks Donnie! It's simple and it works ok most of the time 😊
Very good video on this particular product ! 👍👍. I am curious which band VHF or UHF works best for you on the trails ? Thanks
We're currently using VHF, but we've tried UHF in the past once and it didn't seem to make too much difference. Granted, we haven't ran too many side by side tests, and I would expect one to work better than the other. The terrain around here is tricky, there are weird signal dead spots, even though the distance is short.
Solid video. Would they work on street or is there too much external noise to hear anything?
They should work, but I don't think there is an easy way to get them into the helmet comms, and the speaker mic would probably not work great while moving at a good clip.
uhf will get better propagation in the woods
We tried both and honestly there wasn't much difference. Also, one of the clubs we're part of has reserved VHF frequencies, so we have to use those then.
@@alabamadirtrider probably your antenna doesn't do good in uhf
@@mandytuning Right, I commented in the video that my antenna is a compromise. I have a better Diamond whip antenna, but it's pretty long and just gets caught on more stuff as we're riding. So yeah, we compromise.
Great waffle-free video.
