This is a list of FCC-licensed community radio stations in the United States.The listing is limited to stations with Wikipedia articles, which applies to nearly all community licensees that are "full-power" stations but not to low-power FM community operations (LPFM or LP, for short), some exceptions aside.
ITU Region 1 corresponds to Europe, Russia, Africa and the Middle East. For ITU region 1, Radio Society of Great Britain's band plan will be more definitive (click on the buttons at the bottom of the page). Low Frequency (LF) (30 to 300 kHz) 2200 metres (135.7 to 137.8 kHz) Medium Frequency (MF) (0.3 to 3 MHz) 630 metres (472 to 479 kHz)
Letter beacon. Signal of letter beacon D on 5137.5 kHz. Letter beacons are radio transmissions of uncertain origin and unknown purpose, consisting of only a single repeating Morse code letter. They have been classified into a number of groups according to transmission code and frequency, and it is supposed that the source for most of them is ...
Adjacent frequencies are often used by illegal operators using modified CB or amateur radio equipment. Operators sometimes refer to this activity as freebanding. The Industrial/Business Radio Pool of the Private Land Mobile Radio Services has several channels just above the Citizen's Band, at 27.430, 27.450, 27.470, 27.490, 27.510, and 27.530 MHz.
In an FM two-way radio system, CTCSS encoder levels are usually set for 15% of system deviation. For example, in a 5 kHz deviation system, the CTCSS tone level would normally be set to 750 Hz deviation. Engineered systems may call for different level settings in the 500 Hz to 1 kHz (10–20%) range.
Ten-code. Ten-codes, officially known as ten signals, are brevity codes used to represent common phrases in voice communication, particularly by US public safety officials and in citizens band (CB) radio transmissions. The police version of ten-codes is officially known as the APCO Project 14 Aural Brevity Code.[1]
