[QUOTE="RedDirtDigger, post: 300073, member: 2964"] When detecting with someone else in a remote area, I have found that most small dramas/issues etc that you may face in the bush/desert are solved by UHF radio and not my GPS etc. And on longer trips, handheld radios always seem to regularly go flat etc or one or two radios being carried by people in the detecting group will fail. I am just saying that a priority for me is to ensure I have a good 5w UHF handheld on the harness and spare battery in the backpack because the radio has been the most used safety tool on all the longer prospecting trips I have done with other people.
