[FedCom] Seek and Search

[Bill]

I think your missing the point.

When someone asks for a list of frequencies, first who are they? Lets open 
up a little
give-n-take first.  See if your for real or just a gimmee gimmee gimme.

When I say Search,  I will never direct anyone to the net.  So many of those 
lists are
from the 80's and 90's and outdated and have never been updated by real 
sources.

USE YOUR SEARCH BUTTONS ON THE SCANNER !

I'll give them directions on where to search and report back, but remember.
Not all frequencies are used in all areas.  Search, Seek, research and yee 
shall
be rewarded.  Slum and take only, and you get nothing.

IT'S A SIMPLE PROCESS.
