Re: [MBZ] OT hand held radio VHF
hi Clay! VHF and/or UHF only refer to the frequency range the radio operates on. your original e-mail subject line acknowledges that you already knew it was VHF, and the frequency you said it works in is definitely in the VHF portion of the spectrum, so i'm not sure why that's a question. FM only refers to how the radio operates on the frequencies it uses. as for FM, most (but not necessarily all) radios in either the VHF or UHF portions of the spectrum would only use Frequency Modulation (FM), as did these. where would it have been used? could have been anything from talking across a campground to janitorial dispatch in a high-rise building,... not sure why it matters, but if you're curious, why not ask the source you got it from? cheers! e Redghost wrote: That about sums up most of the data.

What else is there to know about a radio? IS it only FM or is it UHF/VHF? Where would this thing have been used? thanks for the data I see we have some confusion here. FM is a type of modulation: frequency modulation, where the transmitter's frequency is varied according to the voltage of the (audio) signal to be transmitted. Another type is AM, amplitude modulation, where the transmitter's amplitude (power level) is varied according to the voltage of the (audio) signal to be transmitted. There are others, but these are the main two people run into. Either type may be used with any frequency of transmitter. The problem is that people assume that amplitude modulation has to be used at a frequency that corresponds to the AM broadcast band, about 1 MHz, and FM has to be used at a frequency that corresponds to the FM broadcast band, about 100 MHz. They do not. FM is typically used at higher frequencies because it takes more bandwidth -- the FM broadcast channels are 200 kHz apart while the AM broadcast channels are 10 kHz apart. The frequency bands are (very!) roughly (and subject to disagreement): 300 kHz - 3 MHz Long wave 3 MHz - 30 MHzShort wave, high frequency (HF) 30 MHz - 300 MHz very high frequency (VHF) 300 MHz - 1000 MHz Ultra high frequency (UHF) So, your handie talkie radios are FM modulated VHF radios.

Re: [MBZ] OT hand held radio VHF
FM is Frequency Modulation - the incoming signal modulates the frequency of the broadcast. AM is Amplitude Modulation - the incoming signal modulates the amplitude or immediate strength of the broadcast. FM is not as susceptible to noise interference is why FM radio is clearer than AM radio. This is also why an AM radio will pick up lightning strikes while FM rarely will.
