These use a 1.6MHz repeater shift system as opposed to the alternative 7.6MHz and 9MHz systems found elsewhere in the band. Here you will find the RU240 to RU270 FM/DV repeater output channels. The use of amplitude modulation (AM) is also acceptable within the All Modes segment but users are asked to consider adjacent channel activity when selecting operating frequencies. Here you can find a mixture of telephony and other modes that include facsimile (fax), radio-teletype (RTTY) and slow-scan television (SSTV). This area of the 430MHz band is allocated to any mode with a maximum bandwidth of 25 kHz. A small segment for Personal Weak Signal MGM Beacons at the top edge is available in the guard band. Such transmissions cause severe interference to weak-signal users listening for far away beacons. Please do not transmit in this segment especially if you are using FM equipment. This area of the band is allocated for IARU Region-1 propagation beacons only. In addition to the separate CW sub-band this is the area of the 432MHz band where operators make long-distance (DX) contacts. This is where you will find Morse (CW), telephony (SSB) and machine generated mode (MGM) activity such as JT65C and FSK441. Narrow-band modes with a maximum bandwidth of 2.7 kHz are always located at the low frequency end of any VHF or UHF allocation. Occasionally you may also hear JT65C EME activity around 432.065MHz. This 100kHz wide sub-band is allocated to modes with a maximum transmission bandwidth of 500Hz.Įarth-Moon-Earth (EME) activity using CW may often be found in the bottom 25kHz of the band. 432.000 – 432.100MHz Telegraphy (CW) and Machine Generated Modes (MGM) The area between 431.000-432.000MHz is used for voice Internet linking but it is recommended that you consult with the RSGB Emerging Technology Co-ordination Committee before considering use of that sub-band.
Between 430.8250 to 430.9750MHz are located the 7.6MHz repeater system output channels RU66 to RU78. Here you will find a variety of Internet voice gateways, high speed digital links and digital repeaters. The lower 2MHz of the band is allocated to modes with a maximum transmission bandwidth of 20 kHz. And because of this UK users occasionally suffer interference from repeater output channels that are located in other nearby European countries. The major impact of this is that in the UK we must use a repeater system with output channels that are reversed from that commonly used in Europe. However our allocation is also located in a particularly sensitive area of the spectrum where the Primary User can effectively determine what usage is made by the Amateur Radio Service throughout much of the 432MHz band. There are common areas, particularly the weak signal segments of the band used for CW, SSB and MGM modes and the Amateur Satellite Service. Therefore the UK plan is modified somewhat from the European model. However there are particular problems associated with band planning within this area of the spectrum.Īlthough it is based on the International Amateur Radio Union (IARU) Region-1 band plan, many European countries have considerably smaller allocations than we enjoy in the UK. With 10MHz of bandwidth from 430– 440MHz there’s plenty of room for everyone. The UK 432MHz band (70 Centimetres) has considerably more bandwidth than all the amateur radio bands between 136kHz to 28MHz, 50MHz, 70MHz and 144MHz put together.

The maximum peak envelope power allowed in the 432-440 MHz range is 400W (26dBW) for Full Licensees, 50W (17dBW) for Intermediate Licensees and 10W (10dBW) for Foundation Licensees.
Additionally the 3MHz sub-band between 435-438MHz is allocated to the Amateur Satellite Service for both up and down links to/from orbiting satellites. The remainder of the band between 432-440MHz is allocated to the Amateur Service with Secondary status. Illustrative map of the 100km Charing Cross Radius.Location Restriction: In addition it is very important to note that the band between 431-432MHz is not available for use if you are located anywhere within a 100km radius centered near Charing Cross, London.Power Restriction: In 430-432 MHz, the maximum peak envelope power in this area of the band is 40W (16dBW) effective radiated power (ERP) for Full and Intermediate Licensees and 10W (10dBW) ERP for Foundation Licensees.The band is allocated to the Amateur Service with Secondary status and includes additional restrictions in parts of the band. The Seventy Centimetre (70cm) band within the UK is 10MHz wide commencing at 430MHz and extending through to 440MHz. 432MHz Band: 430.0 – 440.0 MHz 432MHz Band Licence Conditions
