Found it - I logged 30.02 and 30.22 as Canadian pagers in 1988. I may have logged it earlier but unfortunately I lost my logs from the 70s and 1980-1987.

I've heard the 30.020 MHz paging before and its apparently of Canadian origin. I imagine the 30.220 MHz paging I heard is as well.

^Some great catches kkn50!

I'm going to pay some more attention to the lower 30s and 26/27 MHz freeband range as those sets of frequencies seem to be more and more active. Interesting that the 30.02 and 30.22MHz pager frequencies are still in use today!

Could this one be...

Niles Flash Cab Association F-1 (Niles, IL)

Matt

I'd be surprised if it was. In the 90s, I believe they were on 150 MHz.
