To provide additional channel capacity within the UHF CB Band the ACMA will over the next 5 years change the majority of the current wideband 40 channel use to narrowband 80 channel use. During this time wideband channel use will be gradually phased out as users upgrade their existing radios. This means that the new Oricom narrowband radio you have purchased will have more channels than older wideband radios. Some of these channels are locked and cannot be used, (see the attached channel chart for more information). When did this take place? Early in 2011 new AS/NZS Standards came into effect allowing operators to use additional narrowband channels and also use narrowband transmissions on some current wideband channels. This increased the number of channels up to 80, 75 of which are useable voice channels. What issues may users experience during the transition phase? When a new narrowband radio receives a transmission from an older wideband radio the speech may sound loud and distorted simply adjust your radio volume for the best listening performance. When an older wideband radio receives a signal from a new narrowband radio the speech may sound quieter - simply adjust your radio volume for best listening performance. When operating a narrowband radio or Channel 41 - 80 interference is possible from wideband radios transmitting on high power or on adjacent frequency. The issues described above are not a fault of the radio but a consequence of mixed use of wideband and narrowband radios. It is expected that as older wideband radios are removed from service that this issue will be resolved. Most radios in use will be narrowband eliminating this issue.
