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.
