Just bought a Landy

As of this week, I'm now the proud owner of a 1987 ex-RAF 90 Hardtop. It's pretty. Still on its original paint, wired for radio... It's even got the RAF roundel and Union Jack stickers.

Just a few questions: can anyone recommend where to get comm radio, PA and stereo systems cheaply?

Depends what you mean by "comm radio" - if you want a Clansman rig then Anchor Supplies

is probably your bestbet. If all you want is CB, then just about anywhere - truck stops, MaplinElectronics (in the UK) etc... Given that it's FFR, I'm guessing 24V electrics, so to make life simple on yourself get a 24V->12V voltage dropper of the type sold for trucks and use that to power generic car-type stereo kit.

In terms of PA, depends on what you want to do.

Welcome to the fold.

This will be 24v electrics, I suppose, like HGVs, so you might need to go to the people who supply truckers. I don't know the details of the post-Series setup, but all the 24v systems I've seen use a pair of batteries in series, and the Land Rovers have them in a box that replaces the centre-front seat. (Unless they have an arctic heater.)
