SuperStar 3900 frequencies?
 
I recently purchased a SuperStar 3900. It has several modes AM FM LSB
USB CW. Each mode has 6 bands A B C D E F. I would like to know if
anyone can tell me the frequencies for all the channels on these bands,
or the frequencies of one band and the jump in frequency between bands.
I found them for AM but would like them for the rest.
here is the link for AM

Thanks in advance,
Bo

Modes and "bands" are not the same thing. You are confusing "frequencies"
and the type of emission. Now, you CAN have 27.385 AM, or 27.385 USB, or
LSB, or FM, but the two things are not dependent on each other. The
so-called "bands" of channels. are groups of frequencies that *may* go
outside of the CB band. Word of caution: Make sure you KNOW where you are
actually transmitting!! *Some* of these frequencies are assigned to the
Amateur Radio Service and the "hams" DO monitor those frequencies. Contrary
to myth and legend, the Feds DO respond to complaints of unlicensed
operators on these frequencies! And the legitimate users of those
frequencies will not hesitate to turn in people who encroach there. UPS,
for example, got a warning citation for this some time back and told its
drivers that they would be terminated if even caught with an "export" radio
in their trucks! And UPS is not alone. What makes it so obvious and easy to
find unlicensed operators in that part of the 28 MHZ area is the fact that
28.000 thru 28.300 is restricted to Morse Code and digital modes. Somebody
talking on AM up there stands out like a sore thumb.

So be careful and stay out of that area if you don't have the license. Just
friendly caution.

Thanks for the help. This is my first post in this usenet group. I was
a little leary seeing as most of the activity here seems to be childish
behavior. I was glad to see an answer. I am most interested in the LSB
frequencies. How would those corospond with the AM frequencies. Also
what about USB. Thanks for the warning about the Ham frequencies, I was
aware of those and will be sure to stay out of the. I am more
interested in the SSB.
Thanks again for your response,
Bo

If you want to stay in the legal area, 38 is a commonly used ssb channel. If
you plan to freeband, go to this website
http://www.bellscb.com/cb_radio_hobby_freebandfreqs.htm
and learn what frequencies to avoid.

Thanks for the input, that link was no good. Does anyone know what the
jump is between A B C D E F ? Is there a list somewhere of the regular
LSB frequencies?

Thanks in advance,

What you are not understanding is that no matter what the MODE
(AM/FM/LSB/USB/CW) is, the transmit FREQUENCY does NOT change. 27.185Mhz AM
mode, is no different than 27.185Mhz LSB mode; the only difference is the
type of MODULATION.

Check out the whole site, it's a very good one...

Sorry, they changed the link since my last visit. This one is good.

The C band on your radio should be the legal CB frequencies.
Also if you are on channel 1 band C, AM, USB, LSB,AM are all the same
frequency, just a different mode of communication. They all take place on
channel 1 but you transmit and receive a different signal depending on what
mode you use.

Why on car radio and home stereo, me push AM, me get one set of frequency,
and then when push FM, me get another set of frequency?

Me not know why. Me not understand.

Thanks everyone for your input. I understand now. Thanks for the links
guys. Its good to know I am surrounded by people who came out of the
womb knowing all that is radio. Its a good thing yall never had newbie
questions, because there may not have been anyone around to insult you.
Seriously thanks to those who explaned it to me and I will read up on
it some more.

they know illegal radio so well because they are all gayboys who use
the "extra" illegal channels to hook up. In between money making stints
in Petro toilets, that is.

I get the impression that this may have been a Troll post, but it really is a valid point.

It is far too common to refer to a broadcast band by the modulation method used rather than the
band of frequencies used. Here in the UK we refer to those radio broadcast bands as "MW"
(Medium Wave) and "VHF" (Very High Frequency). These bands are also commonly referred to as
"AM" and "FM" simply because the MW band uses Amplitude Modulation and the VHF band uses
Frequency Modulation.
We also have a band called "LW" (Long Wave), which also uses AM.


Regards,

Peter.

The spacing between channels is usually 10KHz, with some channels having 20KHz between them.
The usual jump between bands is 450KHz, which takes CH1 just one channel above the CH40 on the
band below it.

AM, FM, SSB, LSB and USB are not frequencies or channels. These are ways to use the
frequencies, different methods of putting your voice onto the frequency you have selected.
You may use a channel for AM, FM or SSB... but only one of these at any time.

There is some information about what sideband is on this site...
http://www.citizensband.radiouk.com/
There is also a list of the standard CB frequencies for England, Europe and America (Europe
uses the same band as America, but with FM). This is a UK based site, so the section on CB
rules will not apply in America, but radio works the same way wherever you are.


Despite all the abuse on this group, there are some decent, helpful people here. Some of us
just sit watching the group and waiting for something intelligent to reply to.
Although only small in number, the idiots are very noisy as they have nothing better to do with
their time. The best thing you can do is ignore the idiots, don't even give them the time of
day. Their messages are like junk mail... just one response will justify 1000 more junk
messages.

Regardless of the wave length, you can transmit an AM, FM, SSB or CW signal.
MW, LW and VHF are just different frequencies.

As long as the law permits it :~)

Our MW and LW bands are both used with AM, our VHF band uses FM. Technically it is possible to
use any mode on the frequencies, but not legally.
Because such bands are always used with AM or FM, they often get referred to by the mode
used... which can be misleading.

Bands of frequencies.
I don't know how many people in the UK still listen to MW or LW when VHF
broadcasts, using FM, provide much clearer audio and stereo broadcasts.

Peter.

We are only allowed AM and SSB on 11 meters in the US, but many so called
export radios have FM though rarely used and cw mode for the supposed 10
meter radios that hams would never buy and easily convert to cover 10, 11,
and 12 meters.

MW, LW and VHF are just different frequencies.

I worded it wrong, but thats what I meant to say.

There are always holdouts on dying modes of communications. The "CW vs. no
CW test" war is raging on in the US as an example.

Peter.

We have FM, it's all we are allowed.
America will not make FM legal and we will not make AM legal.

So, where does that leave the "illegal CB causes interference" argument?
Simple, AM and SSB must cause interference because they are illegal here, and FM must cause
interference because it is illegal in America.
And, as America have a distance rule, once you reply to someone beyond that distance, you will
start to cause interference.

The answer is simple... as illegal CB causes interference, make it all legal so it will not
cause interference :~)

You mean like America still using AM CB?
