145.350

Post by dxermouse »

Ive found 145.350 which often has a bunch of brits or yanks talking on it so im guessing its northern hemisphere chatters sometimes it goes quiet for a bit and sometimes i hear random morse code beeping on it every now and again. I have no idea how it works what am I listening to? from my user manual it says this frequency is VHF ham band 4 and on the unit it says NFM.

From what I can research it appears to be in the Amateur Radio 2m band.

It'll be a simplex EchoLink node. This means it's a transceiver connected to a computer and to the Internet, linked to another transceiver somewhere else in the world (this is controllable / selectable as to where the "other end" is...)

So what you'll be hearing on that frequency are amateur radio operators in and around Perth, talking to other amateurs elsewhere in Australia or anywhere in the world...

There was another thread on that frequency here.

It's perfectly OK and legal to listen in to the conversations, but without the appropriate licence, you're not allowed to transmit and to join in the conversations.

Not only is it perfectly OK and legal to listen to ham without a licence, we encourage it! It's a good first step.

This frequency 145.350 MHz suddenly is not registered anymore in ACMA.

I don't believe it was in the first place, its simply in the assigned Amateur range.

145.350 MHz is part of the amateur band which covers 144 to 148 MHz. We're licenced to use any frequency within those limits. Some frequencies will appear on ACMA for special purposes such as repeaters and beacons.
