Why has the ACMA increased the number of available UHF CB channels?
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 radio’s.
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 will 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.

When installing your radio in your vehicle, check that during
installation you do not damage any wiring or vehicle components
that may be hidden around the mounting position.
For optimum performance your radio needs to be installed
correctly. If you are unsure about how to install your radio, we
suggest you have your radio professionally installed by a UHF
specialist or Auto electrician. When installing the radio, avoid
mounting it close to heaters or air conditioners. Never press the
PTT or CALL button before connecting the antenna to the radio.

* The primary use for these channels is repeater operation using 750 kHz offset.
Channels 1-8 and 41-48 inclusive are used for mobile reception and channels 31-38
and 71-78 for mobile transmission. In addition, any designated repeater channel may
be used for simplex operation in areas where it is not used for repeater operation.
† Speech telephony shall be inhibited on these channels.
‡ At the time of production Channels 61, 62 and 63 are guard channels and are not
available for use.
Channel 5 and 35 (paired for Duplex repeaters) are reserved as emergency
channels and should be used only in an emergency.
CTCSS and DCS will not operate on Channel 5 and 35.
A list of currently authorised channels can be obtained from the ACMA website
in Australia and the MED website in New Zealand. Channel 11 is a calling
channel generally used to call others and channel 40 is the customary road
vehicle channel.
Once contact is established on the calling channel, both stations should
move to another unused "SIMPLEX" channel to allow others to use the calling
channel.
Channels 22 and 23 are for Telemetry and Telecommand use, voice
communications are not allowed on these channels.
Channel 9 and above are the best choices for general use in Simplex mode.
