AS to where the Government "A-Band" begins has always been a discussion.

Many folks will say 406 [NTIA], however based on finding a "White Whale", I say Nope, and there are always exceptions.

And it won't hurt to add 6 Mhz to your monitoring Pleasure.

Inspired by Tilde Bill I set my BC436HP for the federal bands and did some band scanning. 

I got a hit on 409.1MHz. Probably the peninsula. They are on DMR color 1 slot 1.

Display reads Net 0 site 0 TG 2.
I got two user IDs not that it matters.

I could have sworn if heard  guy mention ADSB, but I do that kind of decoding so that is probably how my brain is warped. I got one woman with the record function but her radio manners were less than ideal so I have no clue what she said. Screaming at the top of your lungs really doesn't help communications. 

A Google search on 409.1MHz DMR finds nothing.

BTW I think the UHF band starts at 406MHz.
