What band is 50mhz?

Six Meters (50-54 MHz) is known as “The Magic Band” to many of its fans, but the best description I ever heard came from a ham I worked during a frantic summer Sporadic-E opening: “This is a great band if you like having Mother Nature pull your chain.”

50.0-50.1 CW, beacons
50.3-50.6 All modes
50.6-50.8 Nonvoice communications
50.62 Digital (packet) calling
50.8-51.0 Radio remote control (20-kHz channels)

Is 6m USB or LSB?

“normal” is above 40m it is USB so 30m, 20m, 10m, 6m, 2m, etc are USB. 40m and below is LSB so 40m, 80m & 160m are LSB.

What bands can a general transmit on?

Generals can transmit on two new longwave bands that are below the AM broadcast band, as well as 10 HF bands that allow worldwide communications in a variety of modes. Many hams who go for the General class license do so because they want those HF privileges.

What bands can a technician class use?

Technician. The privileges of a Technician Class operator license include operating an amateur station that may transmit on channels in any of 17 frequency bands above 50 MHz with up to 1,500 watts of power.

Is 40m USB or LSB?

What band does ham radio use?

As for ham radio, the FCC has allocated a specific set of frequencies that start at the AM radio band at 1.6 MHz and end at 1240 MHz. This range includes two radio frequency bands, Very High Frequency (VHF), and Ultra HIgh Frequency (UHF), each of which has its pros and cons.

Can a Technician do FT8?

In addition to SSB on 10M, Techs can also work digital modes including RTTY, PSK, and FT8.

How much harder is General Than Technician?

General class – slightly harder test, more privileges While Techs are limited to 200 watts on HF, Generals can transmit with up to 1,500 watts PEP on the HF bands. That’s a lot of power! The biggest incentive for upgrading from Tech to General is the increased HF privileges.
