Radio Frequency List
The FCC prescribes that model boaters use specific frequency ranges to control their craft. These are 27 MHz, 50 MHz (requires a Ham Radio license), and 75 MHz. Many Club members use radios in the 75 MHz band. A relatively new radio control opportunity is the result of technology advances. R/C radios are now available to control boats using 2.4 GHz radios. These have a great advantage, in that the transmitter and receiver establish a unique link, much like your garage door opener. No more problems with two radios on the same channel! You should investigate these at your local hobby shop. They are relative inexpensive and can give you (and only you) a number of functions for your boat.
