FRS Frequencies

From Megawiki

FRS radios can use a maximum of 1/2 Watt of transmit power on any of 14 frequencies. They operate around the 70cm band from 462.5625 MHz to 467.7125 MHz using Frequency Modulation [FM].

Maximum bandwidth is 12.5KHz with 25 KHz spacing.

Signal Scrambling is permitted on FRS - most commonly implemented through frequency inversion ala Cobra and Kenwood. The use of CTCSS is also permitted.

The specific frequencies for FRS are...

Channel 1 462.5625

Channel 2 462.5875

Channel 3 462.6125

Channel 4 462.6375

Channel 5 462.6625

Channel 6 462.6875

Channel 7 462.7125

Channel 8 467.5625

Channel 9 467.5875

Channel 12 467.6625

Channel 13 467.6875

Channel 14 467.7125

You may note that the first 7 FRS frequencies match up with the simplex frequencies for GMRS radio gear. .
