[pb_lonny]

These are my loggings from the long weekend just been, both scanning my programmed frequencies and also searching the bands. I heard a good mix of signals with 451.275MHz being a new signal, possible taxi / delivery drivers.

Interesting that you noted your UHF CB Rx. Out of interest, was the traffic on UCB 35 emergency traffic?

I suspect I know the answer unfortunately. Would be nice if people would follow the licence conditions!

Yes I log all frequencies in use

UHF CB 35 was some kids playing around

At least it wasn't a traffic control company. Those are always fun discussions when they pop up on the emergency or repeater channels.

Nowadays it's just a report straight to the ACMA unfortunately, since they're so very often unwelcoming when you call them up on "their" channel!

Yes I know what you mean, I have heard a lot of people using this and channel 5 as a general chat channel.
