Business Band Radio - this article deals exclusively with land mobile radio (LMR) or professional mobile radio systems (PMR, PLMR) in the United States. See the VHF and UHF Radio Services page for pages dealing with radio systems and allocations in other countries.
Officially called the "Industrial/Business Radio Pool" under 47 CFR 90.35.. within part 90 of the FCC rules (which covers land mobile radio in general - including public safety services). Known as LMR (land mobile radio), PMR (professional mobile radio) or PLMR (professional land mobile radio) as well as just the Business Band.
High HF and VHF/UHF Land mobile radio service authorized under Part 90 (Land Mobile Radio Services) of the FCC rules. FCC eligibility verbiage states: Persons primarily engaged in any of the following activities are eligible to hold authorizations in the Industrial/Business Pool to provide commercial mobile radio service as defined in part 20 of this chapter or to operate stations for transmission of communications necessary to such activities of the licensee: (1) The operation commercial of business activity; (2) The operation of educational, philanthropic, or ecclesiastical institutions; (3) Clergy activities; or (4) The operation of hospitals, clinics, or medical associations.
Business Radio is not to be confused with license free or simple license services available for land mobile and portable or walkie-talkie radio purposes in the United States. These VHF/UHF services include FRS and GMRS, MURS and CB. FRS, MURS and CB are all heavily used as a low cost alternative to the hassle of business band.
Below 25 MHz (2000 kHz - 25000 kHz)
2 MHz - 25 MHz, below 25000 kHz below 25 MHz. The FCC considers industrial/business allocations above 25.0 MHz to be intended exclusively for local communications. For the purposes of land mobile, 2-25 MHz is considered "HF".
Specific frequencies:
- 2292 kHz 2.292 MHz - fixed or mobile
- 2398 kHz 2.398 MHz - fixed or mobile
- 4637.5 kHz 4.6375 MHz - fixed or mobile
- 5167.5 kHz 5.1675 MHz - Alaska Emergency frequency (dial frequency in USB mode)
- 2000 kHz - 25,000 kHz - businesses may apply for frequencies in the fixed/mobile bands between 2-25 MHz for base/mobile/fixed purposes, however, use of frequencies between 2 MHz and 25 MHz is limited to backup systems, emergency communications circuits, remote areas where VHF/UHF services would not provide the coverage or range required. Examples include geophysical exploration, telecommunications repair systems or backup systems used by telecom companies in emergencies, and other specialized purposes. Many of these licensed have been depreciated in favor of UHF/SHF SATCOM or satphone based systems.
VHF Low Band 25-50 MHz
The 25 MHz, 27 MHz and 29 MHz frequencies are shared with numerous other services worldwide, including the HF SSB marine mobile service.
Removed 27.555 MHz, 27.615 MHz, 27.635 MHz, 27.655 MHz, 27.765 MHz and 27.86 MHz from list..there are no active, canceled or expired licenses for any of those frequencies.

What are the VHF low band channels frequencies? What frequency is 30MHz? What is 27 MHz? 49MHz range 27MHz band
Frequencies below 150 MHz may continue to use 20K0F3E or 16K0F3E "wideband" FM mode (also known as 25 kHz bandwidth or 20 kHz bandwidth). In the land mobile / business radio industry the term is often “25 kHz channels” or “25 kHz bandwidth”. VHF low band is not subject to the 2013 FCC narrowband mandate. However, narrowband FM may be used on low band. Some licenses will be authorized for 11K0F3E, 16K0F3E and 20K0F3E emissions.
The 25 MHz band (25.02 MHz - 25.32 MHz), 27 MHz (27.43 MHz - 27.53 MHz) and 29 MHz (29.71 MHz - 29.79 MHz) do actually have licensed business use as of 2020. The 25 MHz frequencies used for oil spill response as well as other land mobile purposes. The 25 MHz frequencies have frequency-specific regulations, including the permissive use of FSK tone signalling, impulse transmission for datalink or other purposes, with a maximum FSK datalink or signalling power output of 50 watts and a maximum of 3 minute bursts. These are allowed on a primary basis on 25.02 MHz, 25.06 MHz, 25.10 MHz and 25.18 MHz and on a secondary basis 25.14 MHz, 25.22 MHz, 25.26 MHz and 25.3 MHz.
The 27 MHz and 29 MHz frequencies are also used for land mobile and offshore ship-to-ship communications. These bands are shared with military/government allocations as well as the fixed/mobile bands and numerous other services in other countries.
While the FCC regulations do technically allow for business licenses on 27.555 MHz, 27.615 MHz, 27.635 MHz, 27.655 MHz, 27.765 MHz and 27.86 MHz in certain rural areas for forestry and logging communications (maximum power 150 watts), there are no active, expired or canceled licenses for any of these frequencies per the FCC database. The 27.41 MHz to 28.0 MHz band is still used by military and government stations, but the majority of signals heard there are from unlicensed CB freebanders or outbanders.
The 27.54 MHz - 28 MHz band is shared with military/government users per NTIA regulations.
Any frequency between 30 MHz and 88 MHz may be used by the military (25 kHz steps) and there are various sub-bands allocated to exclusive government used by the NITA that fall within 29.8 MHz - 49.9 MHz (30-50 MHz).
The military and government have exclusive allocations for the 25.33 MHz to 25.55 MHz, 26.48 MHz to 26.95 MHz, 27.54 MHz to 28 MHz, 29.89 MHz to 29.91 MHz, 30 MHz to 30.56 MHz, 32 MHz to 33 MHz, 34 MHz to 35 MHz, 36 MHz to 37 MHz, 38.25 MHz to 39 MHz, 40 MHz to 42., 46.6 MHz to 47. MHz and 49.6 MHz to 50 MHz bands.
FM voice bandwidth 25 kHz permitted under FCC regulations. Emission designators 20K0F3E and 16K0F3E are common for FM voice, 20K0F3D and 16K0F3D for DTMF and other tone-modulated signaling, alerting systems and 20K0F2D, 19K0F2D, 16K0F2D, 20K0F1D, 19K0F1D, 16K0F1D, 16K0G2D, etc. telemetry are also commonly found. The 25.02 MHz - 25.32 MHz band, 27.43 MHz - 27.53 MHz band and 29.71 MHz - 29.79 MHz band are shared with marine mobile, the fixed service, mobile service, land mobile, CB radio bands and 27 MHz marine radio, 29 MHz CB and marine services or fishery radio services (in other countries), paging systems, telemetry (fixed/mobile) systems. The 27.500 MHz to 39.475 MHz band (25 kHz steps, or in some implementations, 12.5 kHz steps, FM or NFM) is used throughout Asia for fishery radio communications, ship to ship and ship to shore. This service was originally designed in China but has spread throughout Asia. Usually referred to as "FM Fishery Radiotelephone" or "Dedicated Fishing Boat Radio-telephone" The 25 kHz step (480 channel) version is the most commonly used. No CTCSS or DCS tone squelch or coded squelch is uses on the "Dedicated Fishery Radio" or "Asian Fishery Radio" service. In other words, it is carrier squelch (CSQ) only. Due to the significant overlap (up to the 39 MHz band) that this service has with VHF low band, it is worthy of mentioning here.
The 30-50 MHz VHF low band business bands may be (and frequently are) used within the United States by the US military for various purposes - non frequency hopping uses include: range control, aircraft advisory and secondary air traffic control purposes, air-to-air and air-to-ground communications, land mobile (tactical comms) - both in frequency hopping (FH) and single channel (SC) mode. The US military have their own sub-bands within VHF low band where they are the primary authorized user. However, NTIA and FCC regulations permit use of any frequency between 30.000 MHz and 87.975 MHz (25 kHz channel spacing) on a non-interference basis. As long as they're not interfering with the primary licensed user for a given area, they may (and do) use frequencies within the VHF low band business bands and the VHF low band public safety bands. The military use wider than normal FM deviation and a non-standard 150.0 Hz tone squelch. Most scanners, receivers, SDRs, etc. will decode 150 Hz as 151.4 Hz.
VHF Mid Band 72-76 MHz
Note that in most of the world, VHF mid band is 66-88 MHz. It is used for land mobile, plus the OIRT FM broadcast band, the 4 meter (70 MHz) amateur radio band, 78 MHz VHF CB (Thailand), RHA68 67 MHz - 72 MHz license free CB-like service in Finland, and the 69 MHz CB service in Sweden.
Special purpose use only. The 72-76 MHz band is shared with 72/75 MHz remote control frequencies under Part 95. It is also shared with very low power assisted listening audio transmitter Part 15 systems operating in the 72.0 MHz - 73.0 MHz, 74.6 MHz - 74.8 MHz and 75.2 MHz - 76.0 MHz bands per 47 CFR 15.237.
The band 74.8 MHz to 75.2 MHz is exclusively allocated to the aeronautical radio navigation fixed service for ILS marker beacons operating on 75 MHz. 74.8 MHz to 75.2 MHz operates as a guard band for the 75.0 MHz marker beacons (part of the ILS system).
Part FCC Part 90.35, 72-76 MHz is not used for traditional land mobile purposes like the other bands are. 20K0F3D, 20K0F2D, 20K0F1D emissions are commonly found for fixed telemetry links. 20K0F3E regular 25 kHz FM voice emission is found for operational fixed links using voice and/or mixed voice/data.
Used for point-to-point links (voice and data), call boxes, telemetry, paging system links, industrial control purposes, radio clock control, etc. The California Highway Patrol CHP hybrid VHF/UHF/700 MHz system uses 72 MHz and 75 MHz, as well as microwave systems, to link remote receiver sites for its VHF low band statewide land mobile network. Several other systems in various places nationwide operate similar systems using the mid band for linking remote sites and providing back-haul audio link capability. The 72 MHz frequencies are also heavily used for low power point-to-point data links, for example controlling a GPS-based clock system. These systems generally transmit in the 2-10 watt range and cover schools, college campuses, manufacturing sites, etc. The 74 MHz and 75 MHz frequencies may be used for industrial process control, telemetry and other specialized uses. Public safety users utilize these frequencies for back-haul purposes as described above as well as to control tornado sirens, for roadside emergency call boxes or other specialized purposes.

VHF High Band 150-174 MHz
This band is usually the band what is referred to simply as "VHF".
There are several spots in the 150-156 MHz and 157.45-160.2 MHz bands where the 7.5 kHz channel steps are ignored or other band plans seem to have been "dropped in", resulting in odd channel steps and offsets (10 kHz channel steps, 3.75 kHz offset, etc.) This is most evident around 150.775 MHz, 150.7975 MHz, 150.800 MHz, 150.805 MHz, 150.8125 MHz, 150.815 MHz, the 154.4525 MHz, 154.45625 MHz, 154.46375 MHz, 154.47125 MHz, 154.47875 MHz, 154.4825 MHz, 154.490 MHz, 154.4975 MHz, 154.505 MHz, 154.515 MHz, 154.5275 MHz, 154.53375 MHz, 154.540 MHz, 154.5475 MHz, 154.555 MHz, 154.570 MHz, 154.585 MHz, 154.600 MHz, 154.610 MHz, and 154.640 MHz portion, the overlap between the VHF marine band starting at 156.000 MHz (public safety allocations continue from 155.9925 MHz in 7.5 kHz steps up through 156.240 MHz, which land mobile allocations overlapping marine channels 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 60, 61, 62, 63 and 64. Some of these marine channels are available in limited areas - where land mobile allocations in the 156.000 MHz to 156.240 MHz region are prohibited).

VHF 220 MHz Band 216-222 MHz
This portion actually consists of multiple services. The 216-217 MHz Low Power Radio Service (LPRS), the 217-218 MHz AMTS and land mobile radio service, the 218-219 MHz service (which is covered under Part 95 as a Personal Radio Service), the 219-220 MHz AMTS and land mobile radio service (shared with amateur radio) and the 220-222 MHz band covered under Part 90 as a land mobile service.
217-218 MHz band / 219-220 MHz band is allocated to the AMTS service on a primary basis. Amateur radio (1.25 meter band) has secondary prilivges on this band. The 217 MHz band may also be used for VHF trunking systems, including land mobile systems, inland from waterways to avoid interference to the marine AMTS system.
217-218 MHz trunking systems use 3.125 kHz offset / 6.25 kHz offset frequencies with 12.5 kHz channel steps. for example 217.63125 MHz, 217.91875 MHz, 217.78125 MHz, 217.70625 MHz, etc. Mobiles transmit 2 MHz higher (repeater inputs in the 219-220 MHz band, for example 219.63125 MHz, 219.91875 MHz, 219.78125 MHz, 219.70625 MHz, etc.). DMR and other digital narrow band modes are used.
47 CFR § 90.259 - Similar propagation characteristics to the VHF high band, used for trunking systems and other purposes nationwide. Standardized channel pairs, band plan and channel numbering per FCC rules. Not all frequencies are available for business users. Some frequencies are only available in certain areas. Paired systems use 1 MHz offset (mobiles transmit 1 MHz higher for repeater input).
5 kHz channels, 5 kHz steps, 2.5 kHz offset. 220.0025 MHz, 220.0075 MHz, 220.0125 MHz, 220.0175 MHz, 220.02225 MHz, up to 221.9925 MHz, 221.9975 MHz.

UHF Band 406-413 MHz
Like the 169-172 MHz, use of these frequencies is limited to fixed stations transmitting hydrological or meteorological data. These frequencies are referred to as the "Hydro Channels" and are shared with federal government stations on a secondary basis. The 406.125 MHz and 406.175 MHz frequencies may be paired with 415.125 MHz and 415.175 MHz. Narrowband F1D and F2D emissions.

UHF Band 421-430 MHz
Note: This band is only used in certain areas - specifically in and near Detroit, MI, in and near Cleveland, OH and in and near Buffalo, NY. Frequencies fall within 420-450 MHz 70cm amateur radio allocation. In the areas listed, amateur radio use is not permitted below 430 MHz. The entire 420-450 MHz band is shared nationwide with military users and prohibitions exist in other areas. All operations (including mobiles) are limited to an 80km (50 mile) radius of the center locations as defined in FCC rules 90.273, 90.275, 90.279, 90.281, and 90.619. Public Safety users have additional sub-bands allocated (423.0000 MHz - 424.3875 MHz paired with 428.0000 MHz - 429.3875 MHz). 12.5 kHz channel steps. Repeater inputs +5 MHz split (same as the regular 450-470 MHz UHF band).
Detroit and Cleveland
- 422.2000 MHz - 422.9875 MHz (input frequencies 427.2000 MHz - 427.9875 MHz) - simplex and duplex repeater pairs
- 424.4000 MHz - 424.9875 MHz (input frequencies 429.4000 MHz - 429.9875 MHz) - simplex and duplex repeater pairs
- 425.0000 MHz - 425.2375 MHz (simplex only)
Buffalo
- 424.4000 MHz - 424.9875 MHz (input frequencies 429.4000 MHz - 429.9875 MHz) - simplex and duplex repeater pairs
- 425.0000 MHz - 425.2375 MHz (simplex only)
Like the UHF-T (UHF-TV) band 470-512 MHz, the 421-430 MHz band was allocated to alleviate pressure in large metro areas where frequency congestion is a significant problem. Detroit, Cleveland and Buffalo are located near large Canadian cities. Frequency coordination with Canada is performed for license authorization in these areas.
UHF Band 450-470 MHz
The UHF band follows a standardized repeater pairing system. Mobiles transmit +5 MHz split. For example, a repeater operating on 451.375 MHz has a mobile input of 456.375 MHz. A repeater operating on 464.775 MHz has a mobile input of 469.775 MHz. The input frequencies can, and often are, used for simplex operations as well. 6.25 kHz offsets and 3.125 kHz offsets may be used. The 454 MHz band and 459 MHz band may be used for business purposes under Part 22 paging licenses in urban areas where frequency congestion is a serious issue. Analog FM as well as various digital voice modes and trunking systems may be used (for example, DMR, Motorola TRBO, NXDN trunking, IDAS, DMR Tier 3 trunking, etc). The same +5 MHz offset applies. For example, a mobile transmitting on 459.30625 MHz for a repeater output of 454.30625 MHz.
The 450-470 MHz land mobile systems that use repeaters must use the band plan and the +5 MHz split. Inverting the input and output frequencies is not allowed like it is on the the amateur bands.
462.5375 MHz, 462.7375 MHz, 467.5375 MHz and 467.7375 MHz are the guard band channels between Part 90 and the Part 95 allocations (FRS and GMRS. These frequencies may only be used with narrow band digital modes (NDXN or NEXEDGE, IDAS narrow, DMR, etc.). If used as part of a trunking system, 462.5375 MHz and 462.7375 MHz are used as repeater outputs, paired with 467.5375 and 467.7375, respectively. There are reports of these four frequencies being used as simplex frequencies at very large events (radio rentals, etc).

- Group A1 - Simplex operations or paired operations. If the system uses a pair (5 MHz offset), the fixed station or base station operates on the low side (451 MHz, 452 MHz, 462 MHz) and the mobile / portable stations operate on the high side (456 MHz, 457 MHz, 467 MHz) as per UHF band plan. 20 watt ERP power limit for fixed stations / base stations. 6 watt ERP power limit for portable or mobile stations. Fixed station antennas may be up to 75 feet above the ground. Voice users are primary users, non-voice users are secondary. Single-frequency simplex systems are very common and may be found on the low or high side frequencies. Group A1 frequencies are only available for assignment within an 80 km radius (50 mile radius) of metropolitan areas.
- Group A2 - Simplex operations or paired operations. If the system uses a pair (5 MHz offset), the fixed station or base station operates on the low side (451 MHz, 452 MHz, 462 MHz) and the mobile / portable stations operate on the high side (456 MHz, 457 MHz, 467 MHz) as per UHF band plan. 20 watt ERP power limit for fixed stations / base stations. 6 watt ERP power limit for portable or mobile stations. Fixed station antennas may be up to 75 feet above the ground. Voice users are primary users, non-voice users are secondary. Single-frequency simplex systems are very common and may be found on the low or high side frequencies.
- Group B - Data and telemetry (including telecommand - remote control) are the primary users of these frequencies. Voice is permitted, but only on a secondary basis to non-voice uses. 6 watt ERP power limit for fixed stations, 2 watt ERP power limit for mobile and portable stations. Base stations (fixed stations) may be licensed as mobile stations. Fixed station antennas may be up to 20 feet above ground.
- Group C - Telemetry / data (non-voice) and voice systems, shared. 6 watt ERP power limit for fixed stations, 2 watt ERP power limit for mobile and portable stations. Fixed station antennas may be up to 20 feet above ground.
- Group D - Alarm system telemetry, wireless links back to central office control station. 2 watt power limit, antenna at the central alarm control station may be up to 20 feet above ground.
Under FCC rules Part 90.267, low-power 12.5 kHz and 6.25 kHz "splint" or "splinter" frequencies in the 450 MHz to 470 MHz band are broken down into different groups:
- Group A1 - low side of frequency pair (451 MHz, 452 MHz, 462 MHz) - maximum 20 watts (base stations) - high side of pair, portables or mobiles: 6 watts. Only available within 80 km radius (49.7 mile radius) of larger metro areas. Low or high side may be used for simplex purposes, or frequencies may be paired for repeater purposes. The vast majority of these frequencies are used for simplex purposes only.
- Group A2 - may be shared with non-voice users (for example, telemetry), low side of frequency pair (451 MHz, 452 MHz, 462 MHz) - maximum 20 watts (base stations) - high side of pair, portables or mobiles: 6 watts. Available nationwide. Maximum height for fixed stations is 75 feet above ground. Low or high side may be used for simplex purposes, or frequencies may be paired. The vast majority of these frequencies are used for simplex purposes only.
- Group B - Group B frequencies are available for non-voice operations on a primary basis. Voice operations will be permitted on a secondary basis. Base, mobile or operational fixed stations will be authorized on Group B frequencies. Fixed stations may be licensed as mobile. Maximum height for fixed stations is 20 feet above ground. Base or fixed stations have a maximum power output of 6 watts. Portable or mobile stations have a maximum power output of 2 watts. The vast majority of these frequencies are used for simplex purposes only. These frequencies may be used for short-range data links, control systems for clocks, bells or other alarms in schools or on campuses, sprinkler systems at golf courses and numerous other datalink systems.
- Group C - Group C frequencies are available for voice and non-voice operations on a co-primary basis. Only mobile operations will be authorized on Group C frequencies. Stations may operate at fixed locations for a temporary period of time. No stations operating at a permanent fixed location will be authorized on Group C frequencies. Maximum height for fixed stations is 20 feet above ground. Base or fixed stations have a maximum power output of 6 watts. Portable or mobile stations have a maximum power output of 2 watts. Group C low power frequencies are heavily used for simplex portable radios on job sites and for similar purposes. While the frequencies in group A1, A2 and B are also used for on-site voice radio walkie-talkie purposes, Group C is more frequently encountered.
- Group D - Only available for central alarm signaling and telemetry purposes in urban areas, except in rural areas where coordination is required. Operation on Group D frequencies is limited to 2 watts output power for mobile, base or operational fixed stations. Fixed stations used for central station alarm operations may utilize antennas mounted not more than 7 meters (20 feet) above a man-made supporting structure, including antenna structure.
Except for itinerant operations on Group C, wide area operations will not be authorized. The area of normal day-to-day operations will be described in the application in terms of maximum distance from a geographic center (latitude and longitude).
A hospital or health care institution holding a license to operate a radio station under this part may operate a medical radio telemetry device with an output power not to exceed 20 milliwatts 20mw 0.02 watts without specific authorization from the Commission. All licensees operating under this authority must comply with the requirements and limitations set forth in this section. The 6.25 kHz channels have more strict frequency stability and bandwidth limitations compared to the 12.5 kHz channels. The 6.25 kHz channels are generally only used in heavily urbanized areas where frequency congestion and interference are problematic.
Some specialty business users (race frequencies, such as those used by NASCAR teams, other racing users and for on track operations) often use frequencies outside the standard low power frequencies. Due to the temporary and low power characteristics of these types of users, interference is usually not a problem. Individual track facilities have their own on-site radio systems, often including licensed repeaters and use of portable (temporary) itinerant frequencies. Larger events use the 450 MHz / 455 MHz broadcast cue (IFB/STL) frequencies.
Frequencies from the lists below, plus the standard itinerant UHF frequencies 451.8 MHz, 451.8125 MHz, 456.8 MHz, 456.8125 MHz, 464.5 MHz, 464.55 MHz, 469.5 MHz and 469.55 MHz are often used for inter squad radio (intra squad radio) militia prepper squad radio using low power 16 channel short range low probability of intercept 450-470 MHz handhelds such as the Luiton LT-458, Baofeng BF-888S family, Retevis handhelds including the H777 family and higher quality UHF radios including those by Motorola, Icom, Kenwood, etc.

UHF-T Band 470-512 MHz
Note: This band is only used in certain areas, and in those areas only certain sections of it are used. 470 MHz to 512 MHz is allocated to UHF TV channels 14-20 - hence the UHF-T or UHF-TV designation. In larger urban areas, channels are "borrowed" and re-assigned to land mobile.
The FCC has mandated that users vacate these frequencies in the “near future“ (whatever that means...2020? 2022? 2025?) as part of the transition to Digital Television (DTV) and the general push towards public safety use of the 700 MHz band. The largest users of the 470-512 MHz UHF-T band include massive public safety radio systems in several massive metro areas, including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and numerous others.
Like the 450-470 MHz band, UHF-T has a standardized repeater input/mobile transmit and repeater output/simplex split or offset. Instead of 5 MHz, its 3 MHz. For example, a repeater operating on 470.6875 MHz has a mobile input frequency of 473.6875 MHz associated with it. In areas with the band starting at 470.0000 MHz, the first available frequency is 300 kHz up from the edge of the band, 470.3125 MHz.
The original band plan called for 25 kHz steps with 12.5 kHz offset channels. As of 2020, the 470-512 MHz band does not require use of 12.5 kHz channels narrow band modulation (NFM, DMR, NXDN, P25, etc.) emissions. However, many cities where the UHF-T band is used suffer from extreme land mobile radio channel congestion. Therefore, they are forced to use narrow channels (12.5 kHz channels and 6.25 kHz channels) anyway. Note that, as with the 450-470 MHz band, there is distinction between public safety and business users. In the interest of clarity and context, however, the discussion on the UHF-T band will include public safety radio systems.
A good example of this would be the FDNY Fire and EMS dispatch systems on the 482 MHz and 483 MHz band and their associated Motorola Type II trunking and Project 25 trunking systems that operate in the 482 MHz and 483 MHz region with the 6.25 kHz channel step. FDNY's fire dispatch system utilizes a half-duplex "split" frequency setup with base stations (dispatchers) transmitting on the low side and mobiles replying on the +3 MHz input mobile transmit frequency. They are not set up like a traditional repeater, however. FDNY fire dispatch frequencies 482.00625 MHz, 482.01875 MHz, 482.03125 MHz 482.04375 MHz 482.10625 MHz and 482.23125 MHz transmit narrow FM (12.5 kHz bandwidth) on the 6.25 kHz channels. The same is true for the FDNY EMS dispatch system, however the EMS dispatch system operates as a traditional simulcast repeater system.
In some areas, all public safety and a large amount of business radio operates in the 470-512 MHz T-band or TV-band. These cities (and their associated metropolitan areas) include: Boston, MA, Chicago, IL, Cleveland, OH, Dallas/Fort Worth, TX, Detroit, MI, Houston, TX, Los Angeles, CA, Miami, FL, New York, NY/N.E. New Jersey, Philadelphia, PA, San Francisco/Oakland, CA and the Washington-Baltimore metro area.

800 MHz/900 MHz band 809-940 MHz
Most of the systems the 800 MHz and 900 MHz land mobile bands are trunked radio systems. It is important to note that the 806-824 MHz and 851-869 MHz bands are shared with public safety systems.
Some on-site business systems use the 900 MHz band, including the Motorola DTR 900 MHz FHSS frequency hopping spread spectrum handheld radios, which operate 1 watt transmit power on the 902-928 MHz ISM and Part 15 band using frequency hopping digital voice.
Current examples include the Motorola DTR410, DTR550, DTR650, DTR600 and DTR700 radios. These radios operate with 50 kHz channel spacing and 8-level FSK digital FHSS 902-928 MHz band (channels start at 902.525 MHz and continue to 927.475 MHz, 525 kHz from band edges for a total of 500 available channels at 50 kHz channel spacing), in compliance with Part 15 of the FCC rules - specifically 47 CFR 15.247.
A full listing of the Motorola 900MHz FHSS digital on-site license free business radios frequency hop set frequencies list is available here. Basically, starting at 902.525 MHz, every 50 kHz up to 927.475 MHz, is one of the frequencies used by the Motorola FHSS 900 MHz “ISM band” license-free on site digital business radios.
The DTR 900 MHz digital business radios offer performance comparable with UHF walkie-talkies as far as in-building coverage goes.
The 902-928 MHz band is shared with numerous other services and devices, including analog and digital cordless phones, UAV or drone radio control, other remote control/radio control systems and backhaul telemetry links, analog and digital video senders, point to point audio links, ISM services, 900 MHz WiFi or 802.11ah Wi-Fi and various other telemetry and data networks and services.

Common Itinerant and Low Power Business Frequencies
Maybe you were looking for US federal government itinerant frequencies (Federal Common Use Frequencies)?
See also: commonly used CTCSS tones and DCS codes for popular UHF and VHF business frequencies, popular retail store frequencies and tones, as well as popular and default FRS/GMRS CTCSS tones codes privacy codes listing.
Can businesses use FRS radios? Yes they can under Part 95 of the FCC rules. Only the 5 MURS frequencies and the 22 FRS frequencies may be used without a license, however.
Often heard at construction sites, special events, shopping malls, stores, gas stations, etc. There is also movement in the hunting community away from CB/11 meter and VHF marine towards licensed Part 90 land mobile/business radio systems.
See hunt club radio frequencies and American militia tactical VHF/UHF tactical frequencies and channel plans for VHF/UHF and UHF radios - Baofeng, etc. as well as UHF intra squad radio (or inter-squad radio, or ISR) intra-squad radio frequency plans.
These frequencies are often supplemented with heavy use of FRS frequencies. Use of all 22 FRS frequencies is permitted by businesses under the FCC rules.
Note the Motorola, Kenwood, Vertex, Baofeng, etc. on-site business radio default factory codes channels frequencies settings and available frequencies in a separate section below - these are not FRS/GMRS frequencies. Motorola FRS and GMRS radios use the standard 14 or 22 FRS channels.
All Part 90 frequencies above 150 MHz must operate in narrow band mode or use digital voice modes that meet the FCC narrowbanding requirement.
- Narrow band FM voice emissions include 11K2F3E (sometimes listed on licenses as 11K3F3E or 11K0F3E), 10K5F3E, 10K0F3E, 9K20F3E, 9K10F3E 8K50F3E, 8K00F3E, and 6K00F3E.
- Narrow FM voice/data (11K3F3E, 11K2F3E, 11K0F3E, 9K20F3E, 11K3F3D, 11K3F2D, 11K3F1D, 11K2F9W, etc.), DMR (7K60FXE, 7K60FXW, 7K60F7W, etc), IDAS or NXDN NEXEDGE (4K00F1E, 8K30F1E, 8K30F7W, etc.) and Project 25 P25 (8K10F1E) are the most common.
- Itinerant

Do I need a license to transmit on 151.625 MHz? Yes, you do. You need a license to use all the business band frequencies, including 151.625 MHz, 151.505 MHz, 158.400 MHz, 151.955 MHz, 151.700 MHz, 151.760 MHz, 464.550 MHz, 464.500 MHz, 467.925 MHz, 467.875 MHz, 467.900 MHz, etc. Only the 22 FRS frequencies, the 5 MURS frequencies and the 40 CB channels do not require a license. Getting a business license for the Itinerant channels is extremely easy.
Most of the transmissions you'll hear on these frequencies are from portable handheld radios - walkie-talkies, but sometimes high powered mobile radios or even portable repeaters are heard. Portable or temporary repeater output frequencies may be any of the VHF low or VHF high frequencies. On the UHF band, input frequency is 5 MHz above output frequency. In many situations all frequencies are used for simplex only. The 457 MHz, 462 MHz and 467 MHz frequencies are simplex use only and are often used for on-site communications using portable handheld radios. Several of the itinerant frequencies may be used as repeater output channels, repeater input channels or for simplex/talk-around purposes. Examples include the 464.500 MHz, 464.550 MHz and 469.500 MHz, 469.550 MHz frequencies. 464.550 MHz may be used as a repeater output (paired with 469.550 MHz) or both frequencies may be used for simplex purposes. The 457/467 MHz frequencies are also used by shipboard and dockside repeaters or simplex systems aboard ship (10 MHz offset or 10.225 MHz offset). The itinerant frequencies in the VHF bands do not have a set pairing or offset like the UHF bands do.
The default channels / frequencies for most job site / contractor / construction site crews will vary. Many crews use FRS, MURS or CB for on-site communications, especially if multiple contractors and subcontractors are working together on a large site. The default out of the box factory UHF channels are also often heavily used.
See the factory portable radio frequencies and available frequencies listed in the section below.

Scroll down to see the Baofeng factory programming plans, Retevis factory default frequencies, etc. Note that some of these frequency plans are no longer used and/or may not be the frequency plan that a radio for a specific country, region or market is programmed with. Be sure to scroll through the entire list. Knowing which radio services are legal in your country or region is often very helpful. Be sure that the radio you're ordering is for the radio service that is appropriate to your country and/or region.

Militia Tactical Radio Programming Channel Plan Frequency Plan Tactical Baofeng Frequency Plans
Motorola refers to CTCSS and DCS as "codes", Kenwood and other companies refer to CTCSS as QT (Quiet Tone) and DCS as DQT (Digital Quiet Tone). The terms "PL" and "DPL" are still heavily used in the two-way radio community to refer to CTCSS and DCS, respectively. Baofeng radios refer to CTCSS as CTCS and DCS as DCS. Transmit CTCSS is T-CTCS and receive CTCSS is R-CTCS. Radio programming software will refer to tone encode (transmit) and decode (receive). An example of this is the Retevis series of radios - QT or DQT Enc is CTCSS or DCS encode (transmit) and QT or DQT Dec CTCSS or DCS decode (receive).
Higher-end VHF and UHF handheld radios are simply sold by the band they operate on, and the end user (or vendor) programs the radio accordingly. This is changing by the early 2020s and the flooding of the market with inexpensive Chinese radios that often come with factory default frequencies out of the box. Some of these radios have received FCC approval for Part 95 (FRS, GMRS or MURS) usage, while others have Part 90 land mobile authorization (with the programming software of course). See also: commonly used, popular and out of the box factory default FRS and GMRS frequencies channels codes tones.
Users often buy radios and use them on whichever frequencies they came programmed with from the factory, regardless of which band and/or frequencies the radios happen to be programmed with from the factory.

WalMart and Sam's Club will often use different CTCSS or DCS tones/codes, especially when their store is part of a larger shopping center with the potential for interference. 151.820 MHz, 151.880 MHz and 151.940 MHz are often found using simple carrier squelch (CSQ). However, in some instances the narrowband MURS channels will have a CTCSS (PL) or DCS (DPL) tone or code programmed in as well, depending on local requirements and interference due to other nearby users. As of the early 2020s, some WalMart and Sam's Club locations appear to be depreciating their VHF MURS radios and replacing them with Motorola UHF business band radios. This could be due to the steadily increasing popularity of MURS radios (cf. Baofeng MURS radios, BTECH MURS radios, Retevis MURS radios, etc.) and the resulting increased interference due to Wal-Mart's heavy use of carrier squelch [CSQ].

Note: the UHF version has the "old channel plan" - which includes 464.325 MHz, 464.825 MHz, 469.2625 MHz as well as FRS / GMRS frequencies 462.575 MHz, 462.625 MHz and 462.675 MHz. Older-generation Motorola, Kenwood, etc. UHF radios did include 462.575 MHz, 462.625 MHz and 462.675 MHz as "business band" frequencies even though they've always been part of the GMRS (and now also the FRS) license-free services. It is still legal to use those frequencies for business purposes. Any of the 22 FRS channels may be used for business purposes. Using FRS for business is legal.

Default Channels Frequencies
On channels 1 through 22, the user may set any one of the 38 CTCSS codes or 104 DCS codes. For channels 1-22, the radio defaults to privacy code setting OFF. Users may use group or individual calling modes (enabled through radio ID functions and DCS setting) for selective calling on channels 1-22. On extra channels 23-50, the user may only select the channel, as the CTCSS or DCS code is hard-programmed for that particular channel. See the frequency and codes for the extra channels below:

Retevis RT1-VHF RT1 RT-1
Default Channels Frequencies Retevis RT1 VHF default channels frequencies May be out dated as newer versions are shipped. Default frequencies may be replaced with VHF MURS or 149 MHz Freenet or other frequencies depending on the radio's intended market. Using the frequencies shown below without a FCC license is illegal in the USA. Some vendors are showing images of the VHF RT1 radio transmitting on 136.025 MHz, others show the RT1 transmitting on 136.225 MHz. Use of any frequency in the 136-137 MHz band is strongly discouraged. The VHF aircraft band extends up to 137 MHz. Do not transmit in the aircraft band!

These are the default tones/codes for each channel. The CTCSS tone or DCS code may easily be changed by using free programming software (such as CHIRP or the manufacturer's software) and a programming cable. Taking the time to switch to a non-default tone/code is strongly recommended. It is very easily done and quick to do and will resolve interference issues caused by other groups using similar radios with similar default CTCSS tones/DCS codes (in other words, another group using radios with the same factory default settings).
The transmit power setting may be switched between high power and low power on channels 1-7 and 15-22 only. Channels 8-14 must be set to low power under FCC rules. For most applications, your radios do not need to set to high power.

Motorola Code (CTCSS tone and DCS code, aka PL tone and DPL code, channel guard, tone, subcode, subtone, sub-channel, privacy code, etc.) list:
Note: there are other non-standard CTCSS (PL) tones available, including 69.3 Hz PL (69.4 Hz PL in some radios), 159.8 Hz PL, 165.5 Hz PL, 171.3 Hz PL, 177.3 Hz PL, 183.5 Hz PL, 189.9 Hz PL, 196.6 Hz PL, 199.5 Hz PL, 206.5 Hz PL, 229.1 Hz PL and 254.1 Hz PL. The military standard 30-88 MHz VHF FM (SINCGARS) tone of 150 Hz is usually not included in land mobile equipment, but scanners will usually decode 150.0 Hz as 151.4 Hz and some radios will allow the two to be interchanged.
There are also numerous additional non-standard DCS or DPL codes available

Midland CTCSS and DCS Privacy Code List
Unlike Motorola, Midland counts the CTCSS tones and then starts back over at 1 for the DCS codes. Code 0 or NULL is carrier squelch (CSQ). Midland uses the standard Motorola 38 CTCSS codes for some radios (38 CTCSS codes + 83 DCS codes). Note that DCS codes 84 to 104 are non-standard codes.

Common On-Site Retail Store Frequencies Channel Plans
This is a dynamic list and is a work in progress. It is an attempt to consolidate multiple databases and lists currently residing in various parts of the Internet. Like most of these lists, this will never be complete or 100% accurate. Businesses will often simply buy radios and use them without bothering with licensing or frequency coordination. Use of the license-free FRS and MURS frequencies is also very widespread. Individual stores may change frequencies and/or CTCSS / PL or DCS / DPL tones or codes - tone/codes, especially in areas where multiple groups are using the same frequency - to meet their specific needs, even if this means deviating from a nationwide or regional chain channel plan.

*Target
Target has several frequency plans in use. Larger stores are individually licensed. Channel 1 often features a low-power (under 5 watt) base station transmitter system, used for paging staff. At stores using 467.750 MHz for channel 1 located in shopping centers with restaurants, interference from Long Range Systems coaster pagers (which also operate on 467.75 MHz) has been noted. 467.925 MHz, 467.8 MHz, 467.85 MHz and 467.875 MHz are used by numerous other stores, causing a monitoring headache for somebody with a scanner.

- Many stores simply use carrier squelch - CSQ, but 67.0 Hz PL, 71.9 Hz PL, 74.4 Hz PL, 77.0 Hz PL, 100.0 Hz PL, 136.5 Hz PL, 131 DPL, 205 DPL and numerous others have been logged.
Most stores use 154.570 MHz and 154.600 MHz as their primary frequencies with CSQ. In areas where interference is an issue, stores will use one of the other MURS frequencies and/or CTCSS or DCS tones/codes as appropriate.
Sam's Club appears to use CTCSS or DCS more often than Wal-Mart, with 131 DPL / 131 DCS as well as 74.4 Hz PL noted. Carrier squelch appears to be the norm unless there's a compelling reason (repeated issues with interference from other MURS users) to use CTCSS or DCS (tone squelch PL or DPL).
