Well Chuck, the days of the slow search scanners are over so I would say do 
the entire bands VHF & UHF bands.....
As far as time goes, it depends WHEN (time) & WHERE (location) you are 
searching.  Sometimes around 0900 hrs or so might prove to be be more 
effective..   Some feds operations are heavily involved with radio use & 
it's easy to snag....  other's aren't so talkative, so vary the times you 
search if it's possible.

Hey folks looking for all those reports on saturday, around 2000 hrs 
local!!!

Ken
