6 Using a PMR 446 Mhz radio
To communicate between PMR devices they need to be set all on the same frequency +
sub-channel code and within receiving range (up to max. 10 km in ideal conditions).
Since the PT-1116 operates on licence free 446 MHz frequencies, all other licence free 446 MHz
PMR radio's will operate on the same radio frequencies. Therefore, privacy is not guaranteed.
Anybody with a PMR set to your radio frequency can overhear the conversation.
If you want to communicate (transmitting a voice signal) you need to press the PTT-button .
Once this button pressed, the device will go into transmit mode and you can speak into the
microphone. All other PMR devices in range , on the same channel and in standby mode (not
transmitting) will hear your message. You need to wait until the other party stops transmitting
before you can reply to the message. To reply, just press the PTT-button and speak into the
microphone..
If 2 or more users press the PTT- button at the same time the receiver will
receive only the stongest signal and the other signal(s) will be supressed.
Therefore you should only transmit a signal (press PTT- button) when the
channel is free.
The range of radio waves is strongly affected by obstacles such as
buildings, concrete/metal structures, the unevenness of the landscape,
woodland, plants, humidity ... This implies that the range between two or
more PMR's may in some extreme cases be restricted to a maximum of a few
tens of meters. You will soon notice that PMR works best when there is a
minimum of obstacles between users.
