That is cool, Tim. You bagged your first fed freq. I bagged my first around '77 or so with my first synth scanner, the Regency Touch ACT-T16K. It could search but was very slow. You had to do 1 MHz at a time or you did not have much chance of getting anything. My first freq was 165.2375 (165.240 rounded up on the old scanner). Still in use even today! At that time the 163 range was hot. Also 165 and some 167. It was all "in the clear" until the early 80's when the B of I got inversion scramblers. I ordered a de-inverter from Grove and was right back on em! Haha! Then came the DVP. But that was often more trouble then it was worth, so back in the clear.

A friend gave me this list from RCMA that was dead nuts on! I had nearly everything, but things keep changing on the G bands, so you have to keep up with it all of the time. Now with P25 everything is changing. It's almost like starting over. Good time to be in this hobby.

You will get many more freqs if you keep searching. Get a scanner that reads NACs. It will help a lot.
