WHAT DOSE LPD MEAN ON INTEK 446 PMR?
LPD is short for “Low Power Device” Low Power Device 433 MHz (LPD433) transceiver radios are short range, licence free communication devices used throughout Europe. In some states however voice is not allowed over LPD. They operate in the UHF band from 433.075 MHz to 434.775 MHz with 25 kHz channel spacing, for a total of 69 channels. These devices are Frequency Modulated (FM) with a maximum legal power output of 10 mW. LPD devices must only be used with the integral and non-removable antenna. LPD was introduced to reduce the burden on the 8 PMR446 channels over shorter ranges (less than 1 km).
