A VHF band BDA is a communication device that receives signals in the VHF frequency range and retransmits them at a higher power or to a different location. These BDAs play a crucial role in extending the communication range of VHF radios, especially in areas with obstacles or terrain that may otherwise hinder direct communication. The VHF band typically ranges from 136 MHz to 174 MHz
