using UHF CB for business
Posted: Tue Dec 08, 2015 8:01 am
From reading the reg's, I believe that the business I am working for can use the uhf CB frequencies (476.4125 – 477.4125 MHz), but cannot claim any exclusivity or "ownership" of the channel we are on. To prevent our radios from hearing other users we have set the tone mode for Tx/Rx to DTCS. Our radios have four channels
Ch 1 476.9250 (UHF Ch 21)
Ch 2 477.0000 (UHF Ch 24)
Ch 3 477.0750 (UHF Ch 27)
Ch 4 477.1750 (UHF Ch 31, UHF Ch 1 repeater input)
our radios are setup for simplex Tx/Rx
are using GP328's and a Kenwood ( not sure of the model).
There are 3 operational UHF Ch 1 repeaters in western australia according to the website http://www.uhfcb.com.au/Channel-1-Repea ... tralia.php and they are
SIL01 Tom Price
PAN31 Pannawonica
PER 01 Wanneroo
Whilst my Centre is in Rockingham, I'm not sure of the frequencies the other 3 centres are using, possible Joondalup Centre could be causing interference on PER01 and they might not be aware of it. Should we be using our programmed Ch 4 (477.1750), or should I make the recommendation that we select another frequency
