Used in analog walkie-talkies and communication systems. In addition, old cordless phones and baby monitors transmit unencoded NFMNarrowband Frequency Modulation voice. These older devices are most commonly found in the 49 MHzMegaHertz (MHz) 10^6 Hz Part 15 band 49.82 MHzMegaHertz (MHz) 10^6 Hz – 49.9 MHzMegaHertz (MHz) 10^6 Hz region. FCC type accepted 25 channel analog cordless phones can be found in the 43-49.98 MHzMegaHertz (MHz) 10^6 Hz range. They can also be found in the 27 MHzMegaHertz (MHz) 10^6 Hz, 40 MHzMegaHertz (MHz) 10^6 Hz, 864 MHzMegaHertz (MHz) 10^6 Hz and 902-928 MHzMegaHertz (MHz) 10^6 Hz regions.

Newer devices utilize the DECT protocol, which is harder to decode.
