marzman Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Are you getting static? My mate bought a stereo off eBay once and it turned out to be a USA headunit, and therefore it wouldnt receive any of our frequencies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not true mate, they do work but on a shorter wave band and the frequencies have different increments to ours, you just cant receive some stations, majority are ok i thought it would be the amp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
