The 1.25-meter, 220 MHz or 222 MHz band is a portion of the VHF radio spectrum internationally allocated for amateur radio use on a primary basis in ITU Region 2, and it comprises frequencies from 220 MHz to 225 MHz. [ 1] In the United States and Canada, the band is available on a primary basis from 222 to 225 MHz, with the addition of 219 to ...
radio amateurs, (semi-) professional users. The Baofeng UV-5R is a handheld radio transceiver manufactured by the Chinese manufacturer Baofeng. This model was the first dual band radio (VHF/UHF) to be successfully distributed by a Chinese brand. It is inexpensive and relatively simple to use (though tedious to program without computer software).
PMR446 (Private Mobile Radio, 446 MHz) is a licence-exempt service in the UHF radio frequency band and is available for business and personal use in most countries throughout the European Union. [ 1] PMR446 is typically used for small-site, same-building and line of sight outdoor activities. Equipment used ranges from consumer-grade to ...
[24] [25] [26] Introduced in the year 2000, the radio was known for its "all-in-one" functionality. It can transmit on all amateur radio bands between 160 meters and 70 centimeters, with the exception of the 1.25 meters band, and the "X" model also has built-in 23 centimeters band capability option. Kenwood discontinued production of the TS ...
In the U.S., license-free operation is also allowed on the medium frequency band, also known as the AM broadcast band. Similar to LowFER, MedFER is medium-frequency experimental radio. MedFER enthusiasts operate under FCC Part 15 rules using 0.1 W (a tenth of a watt) and a three-meter-long antenna between 510 kHz and 1705 kHz, coinciding with ...
The Yaesu VX series is a line of two sequences of compact amateur radio handheld transceivers produced by Yaesu. There is a line of ultra-compact lower-power dual-band (2 m and 70 cm) transceivers that started with the VX-1R and was later updated with the VX-2R and VX-3R. There is also a line of 5 W tri-band transceivers that started with the ...
Shortwave (HF radio) is used by transoceanic aircraft for communications with air-traffic control centers out of VHF radio range. Most countries with HF citizens'-band allocations use 40 or 80 channels between approximately 26.5 MHz and 27.9 MHz, in 10 kHz steps. Due to antenna-length requirements and the band's long-distance propagation ...
Citizens band radio (also known as CB radio) is a system of short-distance radio communications between individuals on a selection of channels within the 27- MHz (11 m) band. In India, this frequency band extends from 26.957 MHz to 27.283 MHz. There are several different channel plans in use.
