Dear All, I'm new is radio and hope to get some answer from expert here. I have an 6dBi antenna which existing using in my dlink wireless router. Can use in my UHF walkie talkie? Please advice. Thanks
 

Can you hear that WiFi signal on your UHF walkie talkie? That's your answer. Not knowing what frequency your router uses, or what band your walkie talkie is made for, I would think it's a very safe bet to say, no, you can't do that.

Most 802.11 routers started out using the 2.4Ghz spectrum. They can be a lot higher than that, but that's a pretty common frequency range. So is your UHF radio using 2.4Ghz? I kinda doubt it...
