Which is better, vhf or uhf - Motorola Radius Vhf Sp21 2 Way Radio Walkie Talkie With Charger P23rrb23f2aa

Based on the information you provided, it seems like the Kenwood TK-2000 radios you have may have been programmed with the wrong band split. The TK-2000 is available in both VHF and UHF frequency ranges, and it's possible that the radios you have are actually UHF models, despite being listed as VHF frequencies when you read the radios.
To check if your radios are UHF or VHF, look for a label on the back of the radio that specifies the frequency range. If it says UHF, then the radios can only accept frequencies in the 400-440 MHz range. If it says VHF, then the radios should be able to accept frequencies in the VHF frequency range.
If you've confirmed that the radios are indeed VHF models, then it's possible that the band split settings may need to be adjusted in the programming software to match the specific VHF frequencies you're trying to program. I recommend checking the manual for your programming software to ensure that you have selected the correct band split settings before programming the radios. If you're still having issues, it may be helpful to contact Kenwood customer support for further assistance.

uhf is not compatible with vhf

the BF888 is NOT a vhf radio, it is a UHF radio so it will NOT program VHF frequencies

They are simply different MHz of frequency wave. You should choose according to your environment. VHF works best out-of-doors or line-of-sight, especially around rocks, hills, dirt and trees. UHF has a better ability to work in and around buildings, metal, concrete, and brick. Either will work short distances radio-to-radio and line-of-sight. You will just get better range when using VHF or UHF in the environments described.

Best regards.

The model number for a VHF radio has a letter K in the position where a UHF radio has a letter R. For example,
AAH50RDC9AA2AN = UHF while
AAH50KDC9AA2AN = VHF

With BK radio the "H" tells you it is VHF "U" is UHF. So LPH, GPH, DPH, GMH are all VHF.A EPU would be a UHF. Michael

Go to walmart but UHF/VHF connector,one that you can connect both wires too and then plugs into TV.Cable IF

MU21CV is a UHF radio.

MU= UHF
MV = VHF

You can find a frequency chart on page 10.

If your tv tuner on vhf only goes to channel 13 you will not recieve uhf channels if you are hooked to cable tv. You can do a search for mid band to uhf converters (converts uhf to vhf).We used to use them in the early 80's. Even if you can find one it will only go to channel 22.

would a MU21CV be a VHF or UHF????
