I'm sorting out a UHF radio and filling in some blank channels with some frequencies that may be useful one day.
I have all the simplex channels in from 433.400 MHz to 433.5750 MHz and have added the obsolete 433.600 MHz and all the local repeaters.
I have the following Raynet UHF simplex frequencies
433.700 MHz
433.725 MHz
433.750 MHz
433.775 MHz
There are two UHF Raynet Repeaters in the UK. I can't find much info on this other than this:
438.400
430.800
FM, Voice repeater
Base TX on 438, mobiles TX on 430 (-7.6MHz repeater shift.
This is a 7.6MHz split repeater pair in the 70cm "wide" repeater section.
432.775
434.375
FM, Voice repeater
Base TX on 432, mobiles TX on 434 (standard +1.6MHz repeater shift) No info on access tones or RX TX on what.
I've found more...
433.700 71 Primary UHF operating frequency
433.7125 71a Reserve
433.725 72 Secondary UHF operating frequency
433.7375 72a Reserve
433.750 73 Tertiary
433.7625 73a Reserve
433.775 74 Reserve
438.8125 75 Engineering
438.825 76 Engineering
438.8375 77 Engineering
438.850 78 Engineering
438.8625 79 Engineering
438.875 80 ENgineering
438.8875 81 Engineering
438.900 82 Engineering
438.400
430.800 84 70cm repeater (Mobile Rx)
(Mobile Tx)
438.3875
430.7875 85 70cm repeater (Mobile Rx)
(Mobile Tx)
438.4125
430.8125 86 70cm repeater

Re: Raynet frequencies
there are no Raynet frequencies..
sorry to say but any allocations in the aRSeCB bandplan are not official.
it's just their suggestion.
there is no such thing as any allocation..
aRSeCB don't make the rules, so their suggestions are invalid and unenforceable.

Re: Raynet frequencies
Oh for goodness sake - not that old bash the RSGB stuff again. I shall be blunt. As far as I'm aware, NO amateur bands have any form of official allocation except repeaters where the RSGB act as the licence holder for OFCOM.
RAYNET have no special status, the same as everyone else - but they do need their own band plan to enable real communications to be effective if they are ever needed. I've been involved in three real requests from the authorities since 1980 - so this is hardly common - but to function, they need to circulate a list. Of course anyone can use those frequencies in the same way that the radio club who have used 145.550 every Thursday evening for fifty years have no one-upmanship.
It's called common sense. You are entitled to dislike the RSGB and RAYNET if you wish. You can operate on any frequency that is available in your licence and nobody can shoot you. However - if others wish to use ham frequencies for emergency communications - real and practice, OFCOM support this service and do use it when it is necessary. Indeed in UHF we're all subject to instant ejection by the real band primary licencee.
If somebody wishes to join RAYNET, it's a pretty important thing to know where they will be operating. You don't want to be a member of the RSGB and RAYNET - that's totally cool, but just pack in the constant knocking. It's a hobby - we all like it for different thing, and in today's climate tolerance is expected from everyone. Sadly some people just want to knock what others enjoy.
I sell radios to business, marine and ham users and if somebody wants RAYNET channels programmed I'll happily do it for them. I don't care if they are members or RSGB members - that's a personal choice. Why do you find it so objectionable. Those frequencies are 'official' RAYNET ones - for their members. So there ARE RAYNET frequencies, for RAYNET members. Like there are TV talkback frequencies, calling channels, groups and slot numbers for other groups - OFCOM are not interested, nor the RSGB in many cases.

Re: Raynet frequencies
Thought they had been replaced by mobile phones and network radios ?

Re: Raynet frequencies
I think I'll just put these in:
433.700 MHz
433.725 MHz
433.750 MHz
433.775 MHz
I wont bother with the rest, it all looks decades old anyway. I'm just looking for something useful to fill some empty channels. There doesn't seem to be a whole lot on 70cms other than those four above and the 8 simplex frequencies and a good handful of repeaters which is around 16. that is about 38 channels used.

Re: Raynet frequencies
Was on about the user services, why use a bunch of hobbyists for communications when the same can be achieved with mobile phones and network radios..

Re: Raynet frequencies
Because network radios and mobile phones will be useless in areas with no internet or phone coverage. Two way radio is more reliable and can be used anywhere.

Re: Raynet frequencies
If I must use 2m/70cm, I use the Note 10 frequencies specifically to avoid having to interact with everyone else.
