What does air band mean?

The aeronautical band or aircraft band is the name for a group of frequencies in the VHF radio spectrum allocated to civil aeronautical radiocommunications, sometimes also called VHF, or pronounced "Victor". Different parts of the band are used for radio navigation aids and air traffic control.

In most countries, a license is required to operate airband equipment, and operators are tested for proficiency in procedures, language, and phonetic alphabet usage.

What are the frequencies in the aviation band?

Between 108 and 137 MHz

Aviation band radios use VHF frequencies and channels that are different from those used on the ground because they are reserved specifically for use in the avionics environment. Typically between 108 and 137 MHz. Aviation band radios are divided into COM for voice communications and NAV for navigation.

Unauthorized use

In most countries, it is illegal to transmit on the aeronautical bands without a proper license, although a separate license may not be required, such as in the United States, where aircraft stations are "licensed by rule." Regulations in many countries also limit airborne communications to aviation bands. In Canada, for example, airband communications are limited to communications necessary for “the safety and navigation of aircraft, the general operation of aircraft and the exchange of messages on behalf of the public.”

Aviation band intercom

Aviation band walkie-talkies refer to walkie-talkies that work in the aviation frequency band. This kind of walkie-talkies usually have the advantages of higher frequency, long transmission distance, strong anti-interference ability, etc., and can provide clear and stable communication services.
