Is that a Fortuner Truck?

[Martin de Jager]

Wow, car is clean, most scratches removed, Richtersveld and the Eco route was some adventure, but my shit luck at The road to hell, made it even more memorable. Yet I loved every minute of this entire trip.

one of the lighter moments of this trip.

I'm sure you were all glad for good radio comms during that section and the recovery.

A few hand held radios on the same frequencies could have helped the spotters. I have 2 if they are needed in the future.

We used hand helds & the ORRA fixed radios.
Radio Comms were outstanding....
...until Martin's wiring stopped his working.

[Paul#25]

Glad it worked out and everyone got home safely. I hope to travel that area sometime soon.

I was able to make contact with Manny on my way out. According to my GPS 40km away.

The Hand Held Orra Radios proved the usefulness of comms while doing the Recovery
