Default Beginner Radio question

I am sure this will be covered in the sticky above but as I am looking to possibly purchase in the near future, I thought I'd just through this out there.

Plenty of searches about the best radio between the manufacturers but the question comes down to frequency.

There are loads to choose from - 11 to 60 divided between the low and high sections. The question is there a difference between the low / high? Does one just pick a number like the lottery? I understand the fact that 2 people with the same frequency can't operate their planes at the same time but does one really just pick a frequency at random or is it based upon what one might choose to fly or even flight location?

Thanks, Hansen

BTW - I was looking at the Futaba 6exas radio. Off to do some more searches.
