What are amateur radio high frequency bands? A radio operator explains
In terms of radio frequencies, the spectrum is divided into categories. In amateur radio, high frequency (HF) encompasses frequencies below 30 MHz, very high frequency (VHF) is from 30 MHz to 300 MHz, and 300 MHz to 3 GHz are ultra high frequencies (UHF). This article will discuss how and when to use each of the HF allocations.
