The Race Control is utilizing Marine 78A (156.9250) as they did last year to coordinate boats leaving and...

...Med Tech is somewhere and since it appears that the Johnston analog site is shut down, the MotoTrbo system makes sense. Now, the trick is to figure out where they are...

I just programmed ICE TG 562 into my TRX-2 today and I am picking up Access Ambulance on the Fall River, MA, the West Bridgewater, MA and the Johnston, RI towers (only 3 ICE towers that I am currently scanning).

I don't know of anyone specific in your area but, if one exists, I would suggest you contact a local full-service TV sales/repair shop in your area that does OTA TV antenna installations as I'm sure they would be able to install an antenna mast for you. The other option (although it might be more co...

Hello, I also see a HobbyTown listed off of I-93 Exit 4 at the Apple Tree Mall in Londonderry, NH. It is on the opposite side of the highway from the former Rivendell Ham Store. 73 Eric Is that HobbyTown in Londonderry, NH also a RadioShack Express location?

As a followup to my post #35 above regarding a carrying case for the SDS100, I have some interesting information to pass along.
