We are a group of radio enthusiast that
are making use of the internet. The Internet is said to be the death of
radio, we are trying to reverse that trend. By using (VOIP) voice over internet
protocol we can increase the range of our radio systems. This means that you can talk from computer
to CB and PMR446 using the internet . What a twist of fate for hobby radio. |
49MHz DX Have you ever thought
of using the 49MHz band? This frequency band
has been around for years. I remember using this
band years ago when my children were small. Then the radios we had
were single channel sets. Now there are 5
channels using FM. A=49.830MHz B=49.845MHz C=49.860MHz D=49.875MHz E=49.890MHz In my area 2 of the channels
have baby monitors on them, I am sure they will turn them off when they
realise that other people can listen in on the bedroom action. Last week I did a
range test with these radios and managed 200 metres. Well 200 metres isn’t
very good is it. I an going to try the range test again, but this time with a ¼ wave tail attached to the negative
pole of the battery. Well this should
improve the range. TNX Wes uk1ab |
