Use that VHF Radio the right way!
When you look at a VHF radio, it might seem like a no-brainer to use. Just click on a button, talk over the mic and that’s it. But there’s a lot more than meets the eye. There are some important things to know about how to use that VHF radio you just bought.
A lot of people have been subscribing to to the Free VHF Radio Usage Printout. We’ve come up with this printout to serve as a guide for first time VHF radio users… or even for those who have been using it for quite some time now but still need to know vital information.
This printout contains info that every NZ VHF radio user should know about. It has a list of channels being used in NZ and what these channels stand for. It also differentiates “Pan-Pan” and “Mayday”; when you should use one over the other.
Overall, the guide is something that can come in handy for when you are planning to take your radio out during a trip.
