Low Band PMR and 4m Ham band
The PMR radio system for the Shetland Islands Council (SIC) Roads dept. is being re-engineered (summer 2023) with new base station radios and a new IP based microwave link network.
I thought I would set myself up with the ability to monitor, and test coverage, both mobile and at home. I found my old FM1100 and also was given a selection of other ones by SIC, as well as the PDP to program them.
My plan is to configure the radios for both 4m ham band and SIC roads network.

| Collafirth Hill | 85.225 | 71.725 | 103.5 |
