Amateur radio band education

These are educational band ranges, not channel assignments or permission to transmit. Check current class privileges and local band plans.

HF (3-30 MHz)

Appropriate HF bands, antenna and licensed privileges can support regional/long-distance paths; propagation varies. Technician privileges are limited-not general HF voice permission.

6 m (50-54 MHz)

Local use and occasional longer propagation; not a guaranteed long-distance path.

2 m (144-148 MHz)

Local simplex and repeaters; use band plans and license privileges.

70 cm (420-450 MHz)

Local UHF/simplex/repeaters; geographic restrictions and band plans apply.

Authoritative rule sources

The app records plans; it does not transmit, configure radios or grant a license. Always use service-authorized equipment and follow FCC rules.
