Differences between a UHF & a VHF radio?
Selecting what band you want your radio to operate on is one of the most important communications decisions you will have to make. All bands/frequencies have their advantages and disadvantages. In a metropolitan area, or in a building, a higher frequency in the UHF or 900 MHz band may be a better choice. In a rural area with fewer buildings, VHF is probably a better choice to fulfill your communications needs.
