G5 uhf 380-430

[landsharkca]

I've done many researches and readings trying to figure out which agencies might use that range, and the result is................... close to none.

So my question to the unication vets here are:

1. Purpose of that frequency range?
2. Can I modify it to monitor ..... 450-500?

Thanks!!!!

Military and Federal users.
420-430 there is quite a bit of users.

Also, other countries have other bandplans.

As for modification, it usually takes quite a bit of work to take something that far out of band.

I have the G5 with the low UHF, being a retired USAF guy, listening in to my old job (aircraft maintenance) is kind of fun (now that I don't have to go out in the heat, cold, rain, or snow myself).

Most DOD sites are migrating to P25 systems in this band. The down side to this is many of the sites are either partially or fully encrypted.

With one exception, all the military installations in my area are on this system:

If you want the 450-500 range, get the G5 that supports that range.

Right now though, I do not see the 380-420 UHF G5 for sale on the Unication (US) site.

Went back to the Unication US site and their brochure is now showing two low UHF pagers available. My apology, last I had checked neither of the low UHF pagers were listed.
