[FedCom] Search 162.890 - 174.000 in Salina, Saline County, KS

[Rankin, Robert L]

The freq. for the Eisenhower Library is from several years back.  Protection units were from the GSA police.  I can't recall offhand which of those two very commonly used GSA freqs they were using, but it was one of them at that time.  The Truman Presidential Library in Independence, MO also has such guards and they have uhf handhelds, but I don't know the freq.
 
I can hear most of the Smok(e)y Hill (I see it spelled both ways) activity here about 30 mi. west of Kansas City if they're flying high enough, but there's vhf activity at several MOAs in MO and KS and I have a hard time differentiating one from another unless the pilots mention a location.

Thanks Robert,

Yep there is still a FBI RA in Salina (was told he bought house here in Abilene.)

Figured if ever wanted Eisenhower I would ask them for them, but will check those 2 you

provided and see if active.

Most of the drug check point acty is happening on 155.610 which is the old Abilene PD

dispatch freq (well the last two indictions have been on that freq)

Smoky still on 148.1 for comms w/ the Tower/ OPNS / Maint & Ground to Air on 316.9 &

309.9 & various VHF freqs for the flying units in AM modulation (asked guys @ range one

day for them (VHF freqs) and they politely said "not NO, but NO".  UHF no problem but

the VHF they keep close-hold.

>I get through Salina once in awhile and hear very little on the fed bands.  I assume

there's still an FBI RA out there, but I wouldn't expect much radio action.  You might

be able to hear the security at the Eisenhower Presidential Library from Abiline that

used to use 415.200 or 417.200 simplex.  Sporatic ICE (Border Patrol interior

checkpoints on the interstates) and DEA activity maybe.  There used to be a USAF

presence at the former Schilling AFB in Salina around 148 MHz. as it was an ACC fall-

back base and the Smokey Hill MOA gives some occasional B-2 runs.
