Business using a Military Air Frequency

[WX9RLT]

I was scanning the military air band, the upper 300's.
In the Rockford area.
Exact Freq: 356.725

The business was using the mil air on a freq. range of 350
Does this happen a lot?

Which mode was the traffic you heard using? AM? NFM? Analog? Digital? My first thought is that you might have been hearing an image of another frequency, but it's always possible that someone was using a frequency that they weren't supposed to.

FM mode, sounds like general FM voice, that a local business is using for daily operations.
I thought an image too, but I am pretty sure I ruled that out.

That's odd what type of radios could they be using to cover that band in FM mode?

If I had to venture a guess, I'd say the business in question acquired some CCR "walkie talkies" and is using one of the programmed "test" frequencies.
