Sometimes 123.450 AM and 123.100 AM. Sometimes the pliots talk to each other via these frequencies (ASTREA to ABLE, ABLE TO ABLE(special times more than one up))

Update. Scratch 123.100, it's 123.025 that they use not .100

Wierd stuff. Let me ask, the calls you hear on 5008, is that a scanner that properly follows status bits? And did you hear the TAC11 calls on the same radio or an older scanner that doesn't follow status bits?

I'm trying to figure the pattern out as to what they're doing.

John, Very Glad to Have you. Please jump in and post away on the forums. We need a little stimulation to get them moving.. It has been slowly gaining momentum. I hope we (all of the forum users) can develop 'the spot' for scanning info in the SD area. The old site was only basic information and laid...

There aren't many. Perhaps the MudShack near 6500 El Cajon Blvd, but they're expensive. Anyone know of any more?

Re: Decided to put a outside antenna on the Truck

. It has a spray liner so it will not be able to stick to the bottom of the bed. The antenna wire is going to be ran outside of the passenger side door onto the hood area where the wiper fluid goes out. I am wondering if when I shut the door for the first time if it will cut the wire. Do I have to ...
