FAQ

Are all PMR446 radios compatible?
Not all PMR446 radios are compatible because these frequencies are specifically designated for lower-powered, shorter range, license-free radios. It is highly illegal to program a higher-performing business radio to these frequencies, as they are intended to operate under an Ofcom license. Ensure you choose radios that are designed to operate within the PMR446 frequency range to remain compliant and avoid legal issues.
What is the difference between FRS and PMR446?
FRS and PMR446 radios differ in frequency allocation and usage. In Australia, the U.S., and Canada, PMR446 radios use frequencies designated for amateur radio operators and military radar. On the other hand, the U.S., Canada, and Mexico utilize the Family Radio Service (FRS) system, which operates on different frequencies around 462 and 467 MHz.
What is the range of the PMR446 radio?
The range of a PMR446 radio varies depending on the conditions. In ideal conditions with no obstructions, it may reach a distance of 2-3 kilometers. However, in areas with obstacles or in crowded streets, the coverage may be limited. It is especially challenging to determine the range inside buildings.
Is CB radio better than PMR446?
Both CB radio and PMR446 have their advantages depending on the intended use. PMR446 is ideal for handheld use, while CB radio's slightly higher power makes it better suited for vehicle-mounted or base-to-vehicle communication. Consider factors such as portability and range requirements when deciding between the two options.

What are PMR radios?

PMR radios are portable handheld radios used for short-range communications that are toll-free and license-free. They are essential tools for communication in a variety of situations, including outdoor activities, events, construction sites and emergencies. In this article, we provide a comprehensive guide to PMR radios, including the types of PMR radios available, factors to consider when selecting a radio, and how to use them. We also provide expert tips on pairing and best practices for use.

PMR stands for private mobile radio. PMR radios are portable or mobile radios used for short-range communications. These radios can be used by individuals, groups, or organizations for communication purposes. PMR radios operate on specific designated frequencies. The use of these frequencies is free of charge, no registration is required, no license is needed. Often it is also called PMR446. The 446 stands for the frequency range 446.000 - 446.200 MHz and is the frequency used with the PMR radio.

Schools and universities can use PMR to respond quickly to emergencies and facilitate communication between teachers and security personnel. PMR can also help participants communicate safely during field trips or other extracurricular activities.

Types of PMR radios

There are two types of PMR radios: analog and digital.

Analog PMR radios

Analog PMR radios are the traditional type of PMR radio. They use analog FM (frequency modulation) to transmit voice communications. Analog PMR radios are affordable and easy to use, and the modulation is clear and crisp.

Digital PMR radios

Digital PMR radios use digital coding (DMR, dPMR) to transmit voice communications. They offer good voice quality, a slightly longer range and more features than analog PMR radios. Digital PMR radios are hardly more expensive, but offer more advanced features.

Choosing the right PMR radio

There are several factors to consider when choosing a PMR radio, including features, battery life, durability and cost.

Features

There are PMR radios with extremely few features that are easy to use - ideal for untrained personnel, or family members who want to use PMR446 radios on the fly. Better equipped units offer features such as beeps, adjustable squelch, selective call and much more. All important features, but you have to learn how to use them. These are important functions, but you have to learn how to use them first.

Battery life

Battery life is a major factor to consider when choosing a PMR radio. It is important to choose a radio with a long battery life to avoid frequent recharging. The battery life of a PMR radio may vary depending on the type of radio and the type of use. In security applications, PMR radios should have a standby charger where radios can be kept on standby with a full battery at all times.

Ruggedness

PMR radios are often used in harsh environments and conditions. It is important to choose a radio that is rugged and can withstand harsh conditions. Look for a radio with a rugged, waterproof housing and rubberized handles for easy handling. Some radios are also dust and shock resistant. Also try operating the radio while wearing gloves.

Price

PMR radios come in a variety of price ranges. It is important to choose a radio that offers a balance of features and cost. More expensive radios usually have more advanced features, longer battery life, and better durability. Inexpensive radios usually offer few accessories to go with them, such as headphones, protective pouches, belt clips, etc. More expensive radios usually have more advanced features, longer battery life, and better durability. Less expensive radios usually also lack accessories, such as headphones, protective pouches, and belt clips.

Using PMR radios

To use a PMR radio, you need to know how to pair radios.

image
Pairing radios

In order to establish communication between PMR radios, the respective settings of the devices must match each other. This requires selecting the same channel and subchannel and setting the same CTCSS or DCS codes. CTCSS (Continuous Tone-Coded Squelch System) and DCS (Digital-Coded Squelch) are techniques used to reduce interference from other users on the same frequency. To pair PMR radios, do the following:

  • Turn on both radios and set them to the same channel and subchannel.
  • Set the CTCSS or DCS codes in both radios to the same values.
  • Test the radios by sending and receiving messages.

Operating PMR radios.

To use a PMR radio, turn it on, select the desired channel and subchannel, and set the CTCSS or DCS codes, if necessary. Press the PTT (push-to-talk) button to send voice communications and release it to receive communications.

Follow these best practices when using PMR radios:

  • Use a clear, concise tone of voice in communications.
  • Keep the radio away from your mouth to avoid speech distortion.
  • Listen for a moment before transmitting to make sure the channel is clear
  • Avoid transmitting sensitive information.
