12 meter tape

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The frequency range from 24.89 MHz to 24.99  MHz is called the 12-meter band . It's in the short wave spectrum and is a WARC band . The name is derived from the approximate wavelength of this frequency range.

Propagation conditions

The 12 meter tape is very dependent on solar activity. In good conditions, DX connections are possible during the day , and there is almost no opening at night. Connections of an intercontinental nature are not possible during the sunspot minimum .

Band plan

The amateur radio - band plan sees the IARU -Region1 as follows:

Frequency range Max. Bandwidth use
24.890-24.915 MHz 200 Hz CW, activity center QRP 24906 kHz
24.915-24.925 MHz 500 Hz Narrow band, digimode
24.925-24.929 MHz 500 Hz Narrow band, digimode, automatic stations
24.929-24.931 MHz - International beacon project, no broadcasting
24.931-24.940 MHz 2700 Hz all operating modes, digimode, automatic stations
24.940-24.990 MHz 2700 Hz all operating modes
