Will Icom440 (and other outdated work when new 77 channels are activated

[pc3]

Might be the wrong spot, but others might want to know as well. Will our current UHF's work when the new channels come on line ? or will we have to buy new UHF units ?

[jazzaD1]

short answer, yes they will continue to work, the 'new' frequencies are slotted in between the existing frequencies

I believe the icom 41S & 440 etc can be taken to specialist icom dealer to be programmed to receive the new additional channels.

Thanks folks,

If it can be programmed I might look into that I think.

I think this has been done and dusted before - several times. Search is your friend.

That said... why not simply phone an Icom dealer and ask?
