Also heard here on 4724, 6739, 11175, 13200, and 15016 (as well as 8992). All had the "echo" too.

I dont think that model has sideband capabilities....

Could be either the result of an alert status change due to the N.Koreans possibly getting ready to test fire an ICBM or a massive military exercise going on in the northwestern Pacific. Check NORAD and milsat frequencies as well.

Hi Crista

If you're thinking about an AOR, look at the 8600. Expensive but it should out perform one of the AOR handhelds.

OR if you can stretch to it, an AR5000

I've thought about it ,buut handhelds suit my needs better..
Besides all you really need is the proper antenna...
and reception should be fine..
I havn't really noticed ANY difference between Handhelds and Bases/Mobiles
Except Costs!!
And if your power fails then the Mobiles/BAses are just paperweights at that point..
Thank you though for your advice.
Warmest regards,
Crista

You are aware that you can operate most base radios off 12 volts right? I can operate my entire radio room off of my deep cycle battery and solar panel indefinitely.

If you're interested in a hot receiver, consider the Yupiteru MVT-7100

It's an older model so you can usually find them on ebay at a good price. Coverage is 0.1 khz to 1.6 gHz cont., AM,FM,WFM,USB,LSB is very hot on the military aero band. I've owned one for several years and enjoy it.

I have heard at least 6.....the two ones I heard clearly said Andrews, and were on 8992, 6739, 6712.....

Barely heard a female voice giving them out on 4724
