In the 1960's, LCPT began installing two-way radio systems into its vehicles. Initially it used aerials but soon realised that large 'dinner plates' were a much better option. A few years ago when SC at GM introduced a communication system, it sensibly used the 'dinner plates'. There's definitely a truth in the old adage "buy cheap, buy twice."
