What is PMR446?
PMR446 stands for Private Mobile Radio, operating on the 446 MHz frequency. This radio system is specifically designed for license-free communication over short distances. PMR446 allows you to maintain contact quickly and easily, without the need for a central office or mobile provider.
The big advantage? You don't need a permit. Anyone can use PMR446, both for business and personal use. This makes the system extremely accessible and popular throughout Europe.

The power of PMR446 walkie-talkies
Our PMR446 radios are designed for clear sound, ease of use, and robust performance. These devices operate on license-exempt frequencies, making them legal and readily available for use in a wide variety of situations.
Key features of PMR446:
- Frequency band: 446.0 to 446.2 MHz
- Transmission power: maximum 0.5 watt (license-free)
- Number of channels: depending on the brand and device, 8 to 16 standard PMR channels, often supplemented with subchannels
- Compatibility: All brands are compatible with each other on the same channels
Many of our models also support CTCSS subtones, which means you're less likely to encounter interference or unwanted eavesdroppers.
Tip: Pair your walkie-talkie with a matching headset and microphone for hands-free communication! Or opt for a separate speaker microphone .

Analog and digital PMR446
Did you know that in addition to analog, there are also digital PMR446 models? These use the dPMR446 protocol, which offers better sound quality, increased channel capacity, and encrypted communication. This provides extra protection against eavesdropping.
A good example is the Kenwood TK-3401D, a digital PMR446 radio with excellent performance and privacy options.
