License Free VHF CB like service available in Germany only. 6 channels with 12.5 kHz bandwidth (narrow band FM). Similar to MURS in the United States and 245 MHz VHF CB in Thailand. Like MURS, the Freenet frequencies are interleaved with business or commercial band frequencies that require a regular business radio license to operate on. German law prohibits using the Freenet frequencies at elevations of 600 meters or higher (no transmissions from mountaintops, etc.) although this is apparently widely ignored.
Maximum power output 500mW / 0.5 watts. German law permits handheld transceivers only (only portable radios may be used). Simplex only. Repeaters are strictly prohibited although the law appears to be murky regarding interconnection between Freenet VHF devices and other bands and/or Internet linking (eg. to CB networks or PMR446 networks).
Much like the MURS service, there is some use of these frequencies with modified amateur radio or commercial equipment capable of transmitting at much higher power levels.
