EMISSION TYPES

Below are two links to descriptions of emissions.

Example:  16K0F3E

In the above example, the 16K0 is the bandwidth, in this case, 16.0 KHZ

The "F" is the first digit.

The "3" is the second digit

The "E" is the third digit.

Hence this is 16 KHZ FM, single channel, voice (telephony)

Bandwidth
This is the required bandwidth of the transmitter.
The above example represents "16.0kHz bandwidth".
The decimal point is replaced with "H", "K", "M", or "G".
These define as:
H = Hertz
K = Kilohertz
M = Megahertz
G = Gigahertz
 

In the above example, the 16K0 means 16.0, as the "K" represents Kilohertz. Here are the three digits for the second part of the designation:


1st Digit
A = AM (Amplitude Modulation), double-sideband (Your standard AM)
B = AM, independent sidebands
C = AM, vestigial sideband
D = Amplitude and Angle Modulated carrier
F = Angle Modulated, frequency modulation (Your standard FM)
G = Angle Modulated, phase modulation
H = AM, single-sideband, full carrier
J = AM, single-sideband, suppressed carrier
K = Pulse, amplitude modulation (PAM, PSM)
L = Pulse, width modulation (PWM)
M = Pulse, phase or position modulation (PPM)
N = Emission of an unmodulated carrier
P = Pulse, no modulation
Q = Pulse, carrier also angle-modulated during pulse
R = AM, single-sideband, reduced or variable level carrier
W = Pulse, two or more modes used
X = All cases not covered above
 
2nd Digit
0 = No Modulation
1 = Digital, on-off, no modulation
2 = Digital, with modulation
3 = Single analog channel
7 = Two or more digital channels
8 = Two or more analog channels
9 = Composite, one or more digital channel, one or more analog
X = All cases not covered above
 
3rd Digit
A = Aural telegraphy, basically Morse code, as in A1, on/off keying
B = Telegraphy for machine copy (RTTY, fast Morse)
C = Analog fax
D = Data, telemetry, telecommand
E = Telephony, voice, this is the old A3 (Amplitude Modulated Voice.)
F = Video, television.  The old F5 was standard fast scan television.
N = No Information
W = Combinations of the above
X = All cases not covered above

    (a) The GMRS transmitter channel frequencies (reference frequencies

from which the carrier frequency, suppressed or otherwise, may not

deviate by more than the specified frequency tolerance) are 462.5500,

462.5625, 462.5750, 462.5875, 462.6000, 462.6125, 462.6250, 462.6375,

and 467.7250.

 

    Note: Certain GMRS transmitter channel frequencies are authorized

only for certain station classes and station locations. See part 95,

subpart A.

 

    (b) Each GMRS transmitter for mobile station, small base station and

control station operation must be maintained within a frequency

tolerance of 0.0005%. Each GMRS transmitter for base station (except

small base), mobile relay station or fixed station operation must be

maintained within a frequency tolerance of 0.00025%.

The first three are listed as having an 11.25 Kilohertz bandwidth while the last two permit a 12 point 5 kilohertz wide signal.  Also, continuous transmissions are permitted on four of the five Murs channels which is bound to cause havoc with those attempting to share with voice and other modes.

CW frequencies include code practices, Qualifying Runs and CW
bulletins.

RTTY = Teleprinter Bulletins = BAUDOT (45.45 baud) and AMTOR-FEC
(100 Baud).  ASCII (110 Baud) is sent only as time allows.

Code practice texts are from QST, and the source of each practice is
given at the beginning of each practice and at the beginning of
alternate speeds.

On Tuesdays and Fridays at 2330 UTC (6:30 PM EST), Keplerian Elements
for active amateur satellites are sent on the regular teleprinter
frequencies.

A DX bulletin replaces or is added to the regular bulletins between
0100 UTC (8 PM EST) Thursdays and 0100 UTC (8 PM EST) Fridays.

In a communications emergency, monitor W1AW for special bulletins as
follows: Voice on the hour, Teleprinter at 15 minutes past the hour,
and CW on the half hour.
 
All licensed amateurs may operate the station from 1500 UTC to 1700
UTC (10 AM to 12 PM EST), and then from 1800 UTC to 2045 UTC (1 PM

        Mobiles transmit 45 MHz below the base (824.040-848.970) and
    are usually repeated by the base. Channels are 30 kHz apart.
        Channels 800-832 are also identified as Chs 991-1023.

        Transmissions are FM. Ground stations repeat the airborne
    half of the conversation, and transmit a continuous tone when
    idle. From one to four channels are assigned in a particular
    area.

Notes:

CWs = Morse Code practice (slow) = 5, 7.5, 10, 13 and 15 WPM
CWf = Morse Code practice (fast) = 35, 30, 25, 20, 15, 13 and 10 WPM 
CWb = Morse Code Bulletins = 18 WPM

CW frequencies include code practices, Qualifying Runs and CW
bulletins.

RTTY = Teleprinter Bulletins = BAUDOT (45.45 baud) and AMTOR-FEC
(100 Baud). ASCII (110 Baud) is sent only as time allows.

Code practice texts are from QST, and the source of each practice is
given at the beginning of each practice and at the beginning of
alternate speeds.

On Tuesdays and Fridays at 2230 UTC (6:30 PM ET), Keplerian Elements
for active amateur satellites are sent on the regular teleprinter
frequencies.

A DX bulletin replaces or is added to the regular bulletins between
0000 UTC (8 PM ET) Thursdays and 0000 UTC (8 PM ET) Fridays.

In a communications emergency, monitor W1AW for special bulletins as
follows: Voice on the hour, Teleprinter at 15 minutes past the hour,
and CW on the half hour.
 
FCC licensed amateurs may operate the station from 1400 UTC to 1600
UTC (10 AM to 12 PM ET), and then from 1700 UTC to 1945 UTC (1 PM to
3:45 PM ET) Monday through Friday.  Be sure to bring your current
FCC amateur license or a photocopy.

Channel 403 = 5403.5 USB (USA/UK)[HFpack UK][UKFM]

 

Notes:

 

1) Dial Frequency: Above listed frequencies are dial frequencies as you see them on your radio. The centerofchannel offset is already figured out for you.

 

2) Worldwide: The worldwide standard mode for Amateur Radio on 5MHz is Upper Sideband (USB).

 

3) USA: Only USB voice with 2.8kHz bandwidth is authorized in USA

for all General class or higher licensees.

 

4) UK: Voice, Digital, and CW modes within a 3kHz bandwidth are authorised in UK for holders of experimental or N.O.V., and channels are often described by the centreofchannel frequency (dial+1500Hz) or the formal "Foxtrot" designators FAFBFCFEFM.

 

5) Germany: DRA5 Experimental Beacon, operated by DARC (DK0WCYbeacon team), transmits propagation data (dial+1500Hz) CW/RTTY/PSK31.

 

6) Canada: Experimental Station VO1MRC operated temporary CW beacon on Chan 267 (+1500Hz), and Voice QSOs on a specific schedule; on 2021 Dec 2003, VO1MRC transmitted voice on Channel 327 while receiving on Channel 346 and 3807.5 kHz LSB (Marconi Radio Club of Newfoundland). VO1MRC on CW also reported on carrier freq of 5260.5kHz.

 

7) Finland: Finnish Club stations may apply for authorization to operate the 5MHz channels with maximum power of 50 Watts on USB only. The USB dial frequencies for Finland channels are: 5288.6, 5298.6, 5330.6, 5346.6, 5366.6, 5371.6, 5398.6 kHz.

 

8) HFpack: HFpack, The HF Portable Group, maintains daily and weekend skeds and a network of Echolink HF base stations in North America on 5371.5kHz. HFpack operators give priority to HF portable and mobile stations. Everyone is welcome, base, mobile, portable. In the event of an emergency, the HFpack net is activated on this channel. For more information:

http://www.hfpack.com

HFpack Website

 

9) USA Channel Activity Observed:

CH 330= Emergency Nets, General Purpose, Nets

CH 346= General Purpose

CH 366= General Purpose

CH 371= Mobile Calling, Emergency, Echolink, Nets

CH 403= Calling, DXing, Awards, WAS, General Purpose

 

10) Evening/Night Guidelines: 5MHz channels are a shared resource with many users. Amateurs are secondary users and must yield 24 hours per day to primary government stations on the channel (mostly Data and ALE). During evening and night, the propagation range is increased, and interference is more likely. As ham activity increases, the transmission time of each operator is usually kept to a minimum.

EMERGENCY RADIO FREQUENCIES ASSOCIATED WITH

EMERGENCIES AND DISASTERS.

This is a list of both ham and nonham frequencies being used for disaster operations for Hurricane Katrina aftermath along the Gulf Coast.  Undoubtedly some of these are outdated, and also true, some of them, if not most, will be used for other disasters.

NON HAM frequencies are not available to ham radio operators with special licesne and permits
