Looking back over about six months of notes, here are some things I have
caught that I am not 100% sure of the user. I am still fairly new to Federal
monitoring having been involved in the hobby almost strictly as aviation and
police scanning, so while some of these may be common to many of you, they
are new to me. All freqs in MHz.
33.06 - possibly military, meter strength about 50% so may have been skip,
somewhat
informal discussion of food, seemed to be unaccented American
English
33.375 - open mic, heard two occasions (I know it's not a birdie)
36.885 - law enforcement, probably skip, 1620 hours unknown date
37.00 - heard late last summer, strange "electronic" clicking sounds
(radar???)
38.4 - voice heard on several occasions, did not seem to "roll in" like skip
but did seem
distant
39.32 - heard in November, callsign "Robert Seventeen"
49.56 - possible military, faint voice, heard late summer afternoon
139.85 - heard near Devens, very loud & clear, discussion of moving trailers
140.35 - military, heard twice in evening
148.65 - heard voice once early AM
149.75 - one voice logging in evening
164.425 - heard early AM, law enforcement
164.86 - seems to be park rangers
165.235 (also 165.24???) - busy at times, law enforcement related, "India"
callsigns
including "One India One Hundred", "India one three eight I am with
India one
eight eight", "Alpha one seven one"
165.375 - "This is Boston...can you copy Nelson?", mention of aircraft,
"Timberwolf
Command Post, Boston..."
165.44 - "One yankee seven seven five for a radio check"
166.1 - loud and clear voice heard twice, ???

was on
162.55
168.725 - data all night long one evening (this was in my scanner for a
while, not sure
why, but that is the only one time I have ever logged anything on
this freq.)
169.575 - open carrier with PL 141.3; simplex surveillance with PL 167.9
169.625 - multiple radio checks, mention New Haven (CT???)
169.915 - data bursts around sunset & sunrise one day last autumn, otherwise
nothing
else ever heard on this freq.
