Trying to program a bc246t using arc 246. I can't find frs, cb,murs etc. in downloadable form in radioreference. Are they there?

They are not downloadable if you mean via the web service. I am not sure we have any common frequencies that are downloadable by the Web Service. Just as a point of reference, I think those come pre-programmed in your radio.

The do, at least in the scanners I have, and you go into their SEARCH mode. However, I programmed them into a bank in my 396 so I could have more control over them.

re: where are citizen frequencies

Thx a million for the suggestions, Great forum and great members!

I also would really enjoy the common freq.'s listed, both military, fed, and personal in the data base so I could down load them and program them how I want in my scanners. And to echo above this forum and site is fantastic.

I don't think that those "common" frequencies will make it to the DB. This was discussed in the beginning of the site and since there is no "National" or "World Wide" page, it was decided to make them static, first on the site and then moved to the Wiki when it got going. I would suggest you bite the bullet and just make up what you want on your own.

Thanks for the reply. I will do that.

I have a bank with FRS, GMRS, MURS, "local control" and some other common frequencies in it.

If I come up to a construction site or industrial park, there is a strong chance I will find something going on on one of those.

Would it be practical to have such a list on the site? I suppose there are about 50-100 frequencies that are worth checking anywhere in the country,

What I had in mind was a unified list that would be easier for someone to program in, possibly with one of the programs that allow frequency harvesting from websites.

I know little of the nuts and bolts of running a website, so this may be too hard.
