I'm new here, got an important question.
I need to know what is the safest vhf frequency to use as an amateur with one of the Baofeng radios?
Please don't beat me up. I just found out it's illegal, I should stop doing it immediately but right now it's our only way to communicate.
I'm a farmer. Moving equipment down the road around curves over hills is our biggest problem. We have to use handhelds. The midland gmrs don't have enough power and uhf doesn't work as good.
I'm looking into business radios and the vhf business band that might work, but for now what's the safest vhf frequency I won't be on with police ,ems, etc?
Seems I read 144-148 is the amateur range. I've never heard another person since I've had these and I'll repeat again I'm getting off these ASAP just is these a safest frequency to use for now?
Thanks
