RHA68 - VHF FM license free radio service - Finland only. Similar to the Thailand 78 MHz VHF CB allocation, Italian 43 MHz VHF 43 CB service, the Swedish JAKT Radio 31 MHz hunting radio service. VHF mid band 66-88 MHz band, FM voice. Very close to the 70 MHz (4-metre) amateur band. Finland authorizes 70.0 MHz to 70.3 MHz as the 4 meter band. RHA68 channel 13 (70.2 MHz) falls within this allocation.

The channels may be referred to by their sequential number or by alphanumeric designation per Finnish law. Power limit is 5 watts for hand-portable stations and 25 watts for mobile stations on all of group A channels and on group E channels 15, 16 and 18–21. Base stations may only be used on group A channels with maximum transmitting power of 15 watts.

FM voice, appears to be standard 4 kHz or 5 kHz FM - 16K0F3E or 20K0F3E emission, 25 kHz channels.

67.5 MHz - 72.325 MHz FM - middle of the band is 70 MHz, cf. 72 MHz, 74 MHz and 75 MHz. Falls above and below the 70 MHz or 4-meter amateur band (where available)

Relation to 4 meter amateur radio band (70 MHz band). The RHA68 frequencies fall within the 66-88 MHz VHF mid band (sometimes called "VHF low band" or "VHFL". The 4 meter ham radio band also falls within this spectrum. The 66-88 MHz spectrum is used for land mobile two-way radio in many areas. It is used for broadcasting as part of the OIRT FM band (65.9 MHz to 74 MHz) in Russia and Eastern Europe. Interference from OIRT FM broadcasters is possible. The lower part of VHF mid band falls within the original Band I broadcasting band plan (47 MHz to 68 MHz) for FM radio and TV broadcasting.
