WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FREQUENCY, A BAND & A CHANNEL?
A – An example of a “Frequency” would be “154.740 Mhz”. This may be a local Police Frequency. You can store this frequency in one of your radio’s “Channels” for monitoring & scanning (similar to the presets on your car stereo). A “Band” is a range of frequencies, for example, the “VHF-Hi” Band ranges from 136 to 174 Mhz. The more “channels” & “Bands” your scanner has, the more interesting frequencies you can store, scan, search & monitor!
