Adds information to those waves. ________________________________________________ For example, takes information (a microphone) from a voice and adds that to the radio waves (“modulation”). ________________________________________________ Receiver Receives radio signals of all frequencies. ________________________________________________ Amplifies the radio waves of a desired frequency (tuning). ________________________________________________ Converts the information in the waves to audio frequencies: output through a speaker. Transceiver: Transmitter and Receiver in one unit. ________________________________________________ ________________________________________________ 12-13 A Radio StationStation ________________________________________________ Amplifier ________________________________________________ Greatly increases the voltage (the strength) of the electric waves coming out of the transmitter. ________________________________________________ This generally helps your signal reach farther (up to a point). ________________________________________________ Antenna When transmitting: acts like a megaphone, lets the electric ________________________________________________ waves spread out in the desired direction. When receiving: acts like a “big ear” that collects the electric ________________________________________________ wave energy. To be most efficient, antennas must be “tuned” to the radio ________________________________________________ frequency, just like the the transmitter and receiver are tuned. ________________________________________________ Radio Merit Badge, Part 2 12-13 Antennas: The Dipole ________________________________________________ Size of the antenna is based on ________________________________________________ the frequency, or the wavelength. λ ________________________________________________ ________________________________________________ Total dipole length equals half the “wavelength” ________________________________________________ Length (in ft) = 468/f where f=freq in MHz 38.5 in. ________________________________________________ Example: for f = 146 MHz ________________________________________________ Length = 468/146 = 3.2 ft, Transceiver 146 MHz or 38.5 inches ________________________________________________ 12-13 Antennas: “Whips” ________________________________________________ Vertical whips are often attached to a ________________________________________________ magnet. ________________________________________________ Often called “a “mag-mount.” ________________________________________________ Typically, they are ¼ wavelength, but 5 can also be ⁄8 wavelength. ________________________________________________ Magmounts require a metal surface— ________________________________________________ both physically, and electrically. ________________________________________________ ________________________________________________ 12-13 Antennas:Antennas: “Beams” ________________________________________________ Parallel “dipoles” ________________________________________________ strengthen the signal in ________________________________________________ one direction.

In June 2011 the ECC, part of CEPT, published a Decision, ECC/DEC/ (11)03 (the ‘Decision’) on the harmonised use of frequencies for CB radio equipment. The Decision sought to harmonise the technical standards and usage conditions relating to the use of frequencies for CB radio equipment in CEPT administrations.

  • Choosing a Ham Radio
    Choosing a Ham Radio Your guide to selecting the right equipment Lead Author—Ward Silver, NØAX; Co-authors—Greg Widin, KØGW and David Haycock, KI6AWR • About This Publication • Types of Operation • VHF/UHF Equipment WHO NEEDS THIS PUBLICATION AND WHY? • HF Equipment Hello and welcome to this handy guide to selecting a radio. Choos- ing just one from the variety of radio models is a challenge! The • Manufacturer’s Directory good news is that most commercially manufactured Amateur Radio equipment performs the basics very well, so you shouldn’t be overly concerned about a “wrong” choice of brands or models. This guide is intended to help you make sense of common features and decide which are most important to you. We provide explanations and defini- tions, along with what a particular feature might mean to you on the air. This publication is aimed at the new Technician licensee ready to acquire a first radio, a licensee recently upgraded to General Class and wanting to explore HF, or someone getting back into ham radio after a period of inactivity. A technical background is not needed to understand the material. ABOUT THIS PUBLICATION After this introduction and a “Quick Start” guide, there are two main sections; one cov- ering gear for the VHF and UHF bands and one for HF band equipment. You’ll encounter a number of terms and abbreviations--watch for italicized words—so two glossaries are provided; one for the VHF/UHF section and one for the HF section. You’ll be comfortable with these terms by the time you’ve finished reading! We assume that you’ll be buying commercial equipment and accessories as new gear.

  • Two‐Way Radio Week 42
    52 Weeks of Preparedness – Two‐way Radio Week 42 By Don Gardner Clearwater County Office of Emergency Management Can you imagine how you will communicate with your family during an emergency when no cell phones are working? Could this even happen? Yes, it can, and it has, even here in Clearwater County. When disasters occur, the public often loses several means of communicating all at once. If you remember during the fires of 2015 the cell phone system was overloaded and many landlines didn’t work. First responders rely on two‐way radios daily and when disasters strike, and so can we. The are many times you can use two‐way radios with your family and friend like during a disaster, or, more commonly, when camping, hunting, during ATV and snowmobile adventures, and between cars when traveling. It may seem like an old fashion technology, but it is so reliable. There are many types of radios you can use and each provides different capacities and expense. Today we will cover four varieties that could work for you. Family Radio Service (FRS) and the General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) radios are low‐power, inexpensive handheld ‘walkie talkies,’ which can be used for short‐distance communications. Most of these radios are sold as a combo sets with both the FRS and GMRS channels in one radio. You will find them in the sporting goods section of stores. The packages often exaggerates and say they will work for 20‐50 miles or more. Generally, the actual range of FRS/GMRS radios will be significantly less than advertised.

  • Amateur Radio Repeater Basics
    Amateur Radio FM Repeater Basics Al Duncan – VE3RRD Updated October 2007 For a list of frequencies of operation for Canadian Amateur Radio operations, refer to RBR-4 “Standards for the Operation of Radio Stations in the Amateur Radio Service” which can be found on the Industry Canada website at: http://strategis.ic.gc.ca/epic/internet/insmt-gst.nsf/en/sf05478e.html Schedule I lists frequencies for the various “ham bands” in use (Canada is in IARU Region 2). The bands most often used for FM repeater operations (listed in order of popularity) are: 144 – 148 MHz referred to as the “2 meter” band (2M band) 430 – 450 MHz referred to as the “440 band” or the “70cm band” 50 – 54 MHz referred to as the “6 meter band” 28 – 29.7 MHz referred to as the “10 meter band” 220 – 225 MHz referred to as the “220 band” or “1 ¼ meter band” or “125 cm band” 902 – 928 MHz referred to as the “900 band” 1240 – 1300 MHz referred to as the “23 cm band” Note that the name “2 meter”, “70 cm” etc. refers to the approximate wavelength of the radio wave. Within these frequency ranges, “standards” have been created as to what frequencies can be used for repeater transmit (output) and receive (input). In most cases, FM (frequency modulation) is used with repeater operations. The most popular transceivers available today will either be “2M only” or “2M/440 dual-band”, with the occasional model offering three or even four bands of operation. Simplex When you wish to talk to another ham without using a repeater, a “simplex” frequency is used.
