2. Very high frequency - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Very_high_frequency

   The VHF band is the first band at which efficient transmitting antennas are small enough that they can be mounted on vehicles and portable devices, so the band is used for two-way land mobile radio systems, such as walkie-talkies, and two way radio communication with aircraft and ships (marine radio).

3. TV aerial plug - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TV_aerial_plug

   Belling-Lee connectors Flex Type F connectors. A TV aerial plug is a connector used to connect coaxial cables with each other and with terrestrial VHF/UHF roof antennas, antenna signal amplifiers, CATV distribution equipment, TV sets and FM / DAB-radio receivers.

4. UHF connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UHF_connector

   The connector reliably carries signals at frequencies up to 100 MHz. [1] The coupling shell has a ⁠ 5 / 8 ⁠ inch 24 tpi UNEF standard thread. [4] The most popular cable plug and corresponding chassis-mount socket carry the old Signal Corps labels PL-259 (plug #259) and SO-239 (socket #239). [12]

5. Antenna types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_types

   Small monopoles ("whips") are used as compact, but low-gain antennas on portable radios in the HF, VHF, and UHF bands. Whip Type of antenna used on mobile and portable radios in the VHF and UHF bands such as FM "boom boxes", consists of a flexible rod, often made of telescoping segments

6. Two-way radio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-way_radio

   Naval air traffic controller communicates with aircraft over a two-way radio headset A variety of portable handheld two-way radios for private use. A two-way radio is a radio transceiver (a radio that can both transmit and receive radio waves), which is used for bidirectional person-to-person voice communication with other users with similar radios, [1] in contrast to a broadcast receiver ...

7. Land mobile radio system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_mobile_radio_system

   Land mobile radio systems use channels in the VHF or UHF bands, since the antennas used at these short wavelengths are small enough to mount on vehicles or handheld transceivers. Transmitter power is usually limited to a few watts, to provide a reliable working range on the order of 3 to 20 miles (4.8 to 32 km) depending on terrain.

8. Rubber ducky antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_ducky_antenna

   The rubber ducky antenna (or rubber duck aerial) is an electrically short monopole antenna, invented by Richard B. Johnson, that functions somewhat like a base-loaded whip antenna. It consists of a springy wire in the shape of a narrow helix , sealed in a rubber or plastic jacket to protect the antenna. [ 1 ]

9. UHF television broadcasting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UHF_television_broadcasting

   TV antenna manufacturers often rated their top-of-the-line "deep-fringe" antenna models with phrases like "100 miles VHF/60 miles UHF" if the antenna included UHF reception at all. (In the practice of electrical engineering, the frequency range in which an antenna is to be used is an important factor in its design.)
