Hi Nolan

Yes, a UHF radio is a must.

I started out with a 5w handheld and then went to a vehicle mounted UHF, which has better range.

Once a convoy spreads out a bit a handheld doesn't have the range to reach front to back for example.

I still bring the handheld with me as it is good to give spotting advice with, or to climb up a hill to get range in an emergency.

Go for the 5w version over the 2w.

Cheers
Ben.
