For our listeners in the Glen Burnie area...

[skipshark773]

Ive got a couple of frequencies for the MVA (according to the FCC ULS) but I cannot confirm their use (too far away from my location) Can any of our members in the Glen Burnie area take a listen and find out what the deal is?

Is this only used by the Glen Burnie branch or by other branches as well?

 

[skipshark773]

I'm not sure. WPGY272 shows repeaters at the Glen Burnie location only and WPXR944 appears to be low power portables used at Glen Burnie. Both of the licences show Glen Burnie as the only location. This makes sense since GLen Burnie is the location of the MVA headquarters. I didn't see any other locations listed or any other licences in the ULS for the MVA.

They're quite literally in my back yard; time to put those in and see if I can hear anything (although if they just use them inside the building, it may be futile we'll see) :wink:

Same here...I'll see what I come up with. The only sure freq I hear MVA directly on is 39.10.

 

[skipshark773]

ah, very good! thanks alot you guys.

I'm blocked out over here by a strong data carrier on 460.475, and a much weaker one on 460.225. 460.3375 has been inactive here; I've had RecAll on it most of the morning and nary a peep.

oh well, it was worth a shot anyways. Thanks alot mike.

I just got them added this evening and the freqs are clear of noise. So, I'll see what happens when they open for business tomorrow.

 

[skipshark773]

ok, with any luck we'll have some new frequencies to add to the database for the MVA...
