If you have any updates or comments on surveillance frequencies, call us down here at The Hotline MBBS, we have around 3 gigabytes of power with our two nodes combined, Special interest groups include Scanner & Radio Sig, a UFO SIG and plenty of others. Our Scanner SIG & File area has many Files pertaining to Scanner & Radio related topics.. The Hotline BBS 304-736-9169 I would like to thank the Medic from Las Vegas and GEnieScan for there contributions to this file. A few ideas: Drive around with these freqs in your scanner, bugs use low wattage so you will have to be pretty close to monitor. Another idea is the next time a concert comes to town, get as close as you can to the arena and search through these bands, this could also be done at stage shows, etc. Let me know how ya do.
