So, the military has RUINED MY LIFE! well. hmmmmm. perhaps that's a bit of an over reaction.
I just am just curious if anyone has first-hand (you/trusted friend, heard/monitored it yourself) experience with military of any branch utilizing 12.5kHz splits, in AM. Not FM. Not NFM, I also know who the Civil Air Patrol is, so let's not bring them up, k?
Now I personally cannot remember having ever run across anything other than suggestions that its obviously possible that it could/would/should be in use (and maybe reports of air show demo-teams?). The manufacturers of mil-spec radios often advertise as much and with SDR the sky is the limit.
I, until very recently, have cursed all designers that have made scanners that do not allow anything other than a default 12.5 search range for MilAir frequency ranges of the most commonly used bands of 138-144 and 148-150.xxxx, as well as the 225-400 range, though in my mind it has been somewhat justified with the 225-400 range.
I am fairly certain I am eating crow now. I am wondering though is this something that has been reported but I overlooked, or something relatively new. I promise I will sheepishly fade into the background and never mention it again if it turns out I just was the last one to figure this out.
Details will follow if there is any interest, comments.
