Hello, The Icom R-7000 general coverage multi-mode ( AM/FM/CW/SSB ) scanner/receivers which covered from 25 MHz to about 2 gHz covered the 800/900 range with no frequencies blocked.
I still have one, but they are useless for monitoring the present digital transmissions.

Even if there were, it would be difficult to enfource.

I looked up scanner frequencies of 460.XXX range with a PL123.0 and scanned up and down but heard nothing. Maybe it's blocked somehow. Just wanting to listen in since we are in all this hurricane and flooded event situation. Any advise? ______________________________ _________________ BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/ listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org Message delivered to wz8q....@gmail.com ______________________________ _________________ BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/ listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org Message delivered to jolkeene...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org Message delivered to sota...@yahoo.com _______________________________________________ BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org Message delivered to kk...@arrl.net _______________________________________________ BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org Message delivered to n...@usa.net _______________________________________________ BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
