License free - often used as an alternative to the 31 MHz band license free band, 26/27 MHz CB band, 155 MHz Hunting Radio Service or the UHF PMR446 service. Very similar in function to the RHA68 VHF mid-band license free land mobile service and the 78 MHz VHF CB service in Thailand.


The free frequency range in Sweden of 69 MHz (new from 2016) is divided into 8 license-free channels with transmitter power max. 25 W ERP (ERP = power including antenna gain / antenna gain). In addition, there are ten channels with a maximum of five w power. 69 MHz is planned for "land mobile traffic" and can be compared to a license-free variant of haulage radio (trucks, delivery trucks, taxis), which can now be used freely by everyone, in the same way as 31 MHz in the paragraph above. One difference from 31 MHz is that 69 MHz needs slightly shorter antennas because the wavelength is shorter. Another difference is that 69 MHz is slightly less exposed to noise disturbance from electrical appliances. For 69 MHz, there are both portable devices (walkie-talkies) and devices for mounting in vehicles. It is permitted to place vehicle devices in places other than vehicles and connect to the external antenna for extended range. The design and location of the antennas are of great importance for the range. People interested in radio technology usually talk on 69.1875 MHz (channel 8).
