VHF radio stations

VHF radio stations operate on very high frequency radio waves, typically between 30 MHz and 300 MHz, used for two-way communication. They are common in marine, aviation, emergency services, and land mobile applications because they offer clear signal transmission over short to moderate distances. VHF radios transmit voice, data, or images, facilitating real-time communication. Their signals are less affected by obstacles than lower frequencies but have limited range, usually a few tens of miles. Proper licensing and operation standards ensure effective, reliable communication, making VHF stations essential for safety, navigation, and coordination in various industries.
