In Germany, before the end of 2008, [12] radio control enthusiasts were able to use frequencies from channel 03 through 67 for radio control of any form of model (air or ground-based), all with odd channel numbers (03, 05, etc. up to ch. 67), [13] with each sanctioned frequency having 50 kHz of bandwidth separation between each adjacent channel.
Area code 440 was established on August 16, 1997, in a three-way split of area code 216, one of the original North American area codes, [1] to provide relief from central office prefix exhaustion from increasing popularity of cellular phones and population pressure. [2]
Several hand-held Project 25 radios used around the world. Project 25 (P25 or APCO-25) is a suite of standards for interoperable digital two-way radio products. P25 was developed by public safety professionals in North America and has gained acceptance for public safety, security, public service, and commercial applications worldwide. [1]
In 1997, 440 and 740 were added in additional area code splits. In 2000, 234, and in 2002, 567 were added as overlays. In 2015, area code 740 was overlaid with 220, relieving its rapid depletion. In 2016, area code 614 was overlaid with 380 in the Columbus/Central Ohio area for the same reason. In 2020, 326 was added as an all services overlay ...
The mobile transmits its own code along with that of the destination of the call, either another mobile or a control office. The control software and circuitry within the base station and the central control processing area for the network sets up the network so that a channel is allocated for the audio (the traffic channel).
450–470 MHz: UHF business band, General Mobile Radio Service, and Family Radio Service 2-way "walkie-talkies", public safety; 470–512 MHz: Low-band TV channels 14 to 20 (shared with public safety land mobile 2-way radio in 12 major metropolitan areas scheduled to relocate to 700 MHz band by 2023 [13])
A land mobile radio system (LMRS) is a person-to-person voice communication system consisting of two-way radio transceivers (an audio transmitter and receiver in one unit) which can be stationary (base station units), mobile (installed in vehicles), or portable (handheld transceivers e.g. "walkie-talkies"). Public land mobile radio systems are ...
The Family Radio Service (FRS) is an improved walkie-talkie radio system authorized in the United States since 1996. This personal radio service uses channelized frequencies around 462 and 467 MHz in the ultra high frequency (UHF) band.
