  4. Amateur radio repeater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amateur_radio_repeater

    Repeaters are found mainly in the VHF 6-meter (50–54 MHz), 2-meter (144–148 MHz), 1.25-meter band (1 1 ⁄ 4 meters) (220–225 MHz) and the UHF 70 centimeter (420–450 MHz) bands, but can be used on almost any frequency pair above 28 MHz. In some areas, 33 centimeters (902–928 MHz) and 23 centimeters (1.24–1.3 GHz) are also used for ...

  5. Amateur radio frequency allocations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amateur_radio_frequency...

    Radio amateurs may engage in satellite and space craft communications; however, the frequencies allowed for such activities are allocated separately from more general use radio amateur bands. Under the International Telecommunication Union 's rules, all amateur radio operations may only occur within 50 kilometres (31 mi) of the Earth's surface.

  6. Radio spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_spectrum

    A radio band is a small frequency band (a contiguous section of the range of the radio spectrum) in which channels are usually used or set aside for the same purpose. To prevent interference and allow for efficient use of the radio spectrum, similar services are allocated in bands.

  7. Amateur radio propagation beacon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amateur_radio_propagation...

    An amateur radio propagation beacon is a radio beacon, whose purpose is the investigation of the propagation of radio signals. Most radio propagation beacons use amateur radio frequencies. They can be found on LF, MF, HF, VHF, UHF, and microwave frequencies. Microwave beacons are also used as signal sources to test and calibrate antennas and ...

    Moxon antenna for the 20-meter band.The antenna is the faint rectangle of wires held in tension by the bent X-shaped support frame. Moxon antenna for the 2-meter band. The Moxon antenna or Moxon rectangle is a simple and mechanically rugged two-element parasitic array, single-frequency antenna. [1]

  9. Shortwave bands - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortwave_bands

    Shortwave bands are frequency allocations for use within the shortwave radio spectrum (the upper medium frequency [MF] band and all of the high frequency [HF] band). Radio waves in these frequency ranges can be used for very long distance (transcontinental) communication because they can reflect off layers of charged particles in the ionosphere and return to Earth beyond the horizon, a ...
