What frequency is the 10-meter band?

28.000 to 29.700 MHz
The 10-meter band is a portion of the shortwave radio spectrum internationally allocated to amateur radio and amateur satellite use on a primary basis. The band consists of frequencies stretching from 28.000 to 29.700 MHz.

How far can you transmit on 10 meters?

Go here for in depth propagation information. Ground Wave (How far can I transmit?) Ten meter ground wave (direct) propagation is much more predictable than “sky wave”. Local contacts up to 40 or 50 miles or more can be expected 24 hours a day and is very useful for local communication.

What frequency in the 10-meter band is known as the CW QRP calling frequency?

24.925 – 24.930 Automatically controlled data stations. Novices and Technicians are limited to 200 watts PEP output on 10 meters. 28.060 QRP CW calling frequency. 28.070 – 28.120 Data.

Is 10 meters USB or LSB?

NOTE: The “standard” and internationally used and accepted mode on 10 meters is USB, NOT LSB. Please refrain from using LSB ON 10 METERS! When you upgrade to the General or the Extra license class, similar rules apply to your band edges. On 160, 75/80, and 40 meters, use LSB.

What is 10 meter ham radio?

The 10 Meter Band consists of frequencies stretching from 28.000 to 29.700 MHz. This means that you can still use a standard CB antenna- just be sure to get an antenna that has a power rating that will handle the power output of your 10 meter radio.

What is a 10 meter CB Radio?

The 10 Meter Band consists of frequencies stretching from 28.000 to 29.700 MHz. This means that you can still use a standard CB antenna- just be sure to get an antenna that has a power rating that will handle the power output of your 10 meter radio. Out of the box, you will not get Channel 19 with a 10 Meter Radio.

Can a technician talk on 10 meters?

Technicians can talk around the world, too! Techs can operate in CW (Morse code) mode on HF on the 40-, 15- and 10-meter bands on a narrow swath of frequency segments, as well as RTTY (radio teletype) and data on the 10-meter band.

What is the frequency range of a 10 meter network?

The Novice sub-bands consist of two frequency ranges; one for CW and Data operation, and the other for SSB phone operation. 28.000-28.300 MHz is a very active part of 10 meters for CW operation. 28.300-28.500 MHz is probably the most active part of the 10-meter band.

How many watts can you operate with a 10 meter radio?

With the elimination of Morse code testing requirements for U.S. amateurs in February 2007, Technician-class licensees who have not passed a code test may operate with up to 200 watts PEP using CW and SSB modes in a portion of the 10-meter band. Uniden President HR2510A, a mobile 10-meter radio.

What are the 160 meter band frequencies?

The 160 Meter Band frequencies are just above commercial AM broadcast bands. The HF bands are where you are going to find most of your DX or long-distance stations. These frequencies span from 3.5 MH (80 meters) to 29.7 MHz (10 meters).
