Berget Forum

Ok short: If the radio works on legal frequencies, and you program and use the allowed frequencies with the correct settings on the radio, the radio is legal.

So yes, correctly programmed Wouxun KG689 400-470MHz is a good radio to use and legal. And so is many more. But if you program them wrong or use it wrong its illegal.

So it very much depends on the people using the radios.

But some radios, that is manufactured with a specific band/freuency and settings like FRS/GMRS isnt legal in Sweden, or Europe for that matter, the corresponding radios are called PMR in Europe and work on 446MHz.

... and on PMR the legal transmitting power is 0.5W (not 0.5mW).

Would this one be ok/legal to use?

LMR UHF Intek HT-460S

Freq. area 400-470 MHz
4W/1W


And Im a noob at this radio stuff

Thank you.

Taken from this: http://www.motorola.com/walkie-talkie/e ... nglish.pdf it appears to be a PMR radio, so its on the right frequencies.

Is MOTOROLA TLKR T60 suitable for berget use ? http://www.motorolasolutions.com/XU-EN/ ... Radios/T60

You can use it for comms within your squad, but thats about it. The channels used with the so called Berget radios are usually programmed to a bunch of different frequencies around 430-435mhz. Pretty sure theres a list somewhere on the forums of all the frequencies used at the event.

Thanks guys!

do we all have to use radios?

No, other methods of communication are just as allowed. Cellphones, morse-code, runners, signal flags, ...

Do bear in mind that the use of carrier pigeons and smoke signals will be frowned upon.

OMG you made me laugh so hard
2 in our team only have PMR:s so don't know if thats a problem..

Although its range is limited and the transmissions aren't secure whatsoever, the ancient technique of shouting works rather well in the midst of combat.

When not in combat, whistling, snapping your fingers or slapping someone on the butt to draw their attention and then whispering the message or using hand signals works fine, too.
Interpretive dance is usually not suitable for tactical operations, but make for some rather interesting safety briefings

In all seriousness, unless your squad absolutely needs radios to communicate with each other, 2 will be plenty. 1 to talk to your platoon commander and 1 spare.

i have an puxing 888 and 2 of my partners in crime have PMR:s and the third partner in crime i'm no sure about
