FAQ

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.

On which frequency do truck drivers transmit?
Truck drivers typically do not broadcast on amateur radio frequencies, but instead use CB (Citizen Band) radio, which does not require a license in many countries. In Europe, truck drivers mostly use the 27 MHz frequency, although channel 9 (27,065 MHz) is reserved for emergency calls and channel 19 (27,185 MHz) is often used for general road traffic.

Which is better PMR or CB radio?
Whether PMR (Private Mobile Radio) or CB radio (Citizens Band Radio) is better depends on the user's specific needs and application scenarios. PMR radios are easy to use, do not require a license and provide sufficient range for short-range communications, making them ideal for private or semi-professional use, such as communications during outdoor activities or on construction sites. CB radio, on the other hand, has the advantage of being able to communicate over longer distances and having a larger community of users, particularly among truck drivers and certain hobbyist circles. CB radios also typically offer more channels and the ability to install antennas for better range. For those who value greater reach and a vibrant community, CB radio might be a better choice, while PMR stands for simple, license-free and cost-effective operation.
