Congratulations to the International Amateur Radio Union on its 100th anniversary!
My first device was a Motorola TALKABOUT T42 two-way radio. 😅
The T42 China version is a public band for two-way radios that does not require a license, starting at 409.7500 MHz (channel 1) and increasing in increments of 12.5 kHz until 409.9875 MHz (a total of 20 channels).
Transmitting power: 0.5 watts
Channel bandwidth: 12.5 kHz
Powered by 3 x 7-series batteries.
Officially stated battery life of 18 hours, dimensions (width x height x depth): 4.8 x 13.6 x 2.7 cm, weight: 79 grams (excluding battery)
The packaging available for sale domestically is only in two-piece sets.
The T42 is available in a three-pack version for use in other countries, using the PMR446 frequency band. The frequency range is 446.0 MHz - 446.2 MHz, with a total of 16 channels.






I have completed my first successful call with my son; signal strength is 59.🤣
Choose a "formal" device to register and obtain a call sign, and look forward to communicating with everyone.😊
