I've had a look at the vehicle on Derek's site. None on there have any uhf that I can see. Perhaps grab a couple snaps next time you see them.<br>

<div>I can't say I've noticed the aerials you mention. But I have noticed some appliances with the RFI attempt at a ground independent ESA Band aerial (We tried them on Police Bikes like 20 years back).</div>

It used to have a spring mounting option.</div>

<p>Definitely UHF antennas - they appear to be RFI elevated feed colinear with spring traps</p>
<p>Main reason for asking was to save me having to put another radio into my car just for local Fire</p>

<div dir="ltr">Late response. I'm not aware of any IGC channels being fitted onto 'fleet' vehicles*. UHF is used for LMR in the Auckland area, not sure how far down into BOP it goes, possible the vehicles you're seeing roam into the Auckland (UHF) areas, but
the rest are still ESA/75Mhz. Possible they're running shorter antennas.

I am noticing more and more these days fire service utes either running <br>
around with both VHF and UHF antennas or just a UHF antenna only (BoP <br>
region)<br>
<br>
Curious if the utes with UHF only still have full contact with Fire <br>
Comms or are they just set up for local fire ground radio support?<br>
<br>
Does Tauranga have a UHF channel now that is linked to the VHF fire comm <br>
channel?<br>
<br>
Also is there any UHF linking in the BoP region?<br>
<br>
Please don't make me have to go out and purchase a frequency counter and <br>
find myself a friendly ute driver and sit there triggering his mic, lol<br>
