Message-ID: <537@ihuxf.UUCP> Date: Thu, 23-Jun-83 15:37:31 EDT Article-I.D.: ihuxf.537 Posted: Thu Jun 23 15:37:31 1983 Date-Received: Sat, 25-Jun-83 17:51:59 EDT Organization: BTL Naperville, Il. Lines: 61 Are there any other scanner enthusiasts or short wave listeners in the Northeastern Illinois area who care to exchange information as to frequencies of interest? USENET seems like a good place to exchange this information. My first contributions in this endeavor are: o+ The Drug Enforcement Agency of the U.S. Justice Department has a few repeaters in the Chicago area. The one on 418.9 mHz is used for undercover surveillance operations. It makes for good listening. o+ If you're into listening on the short wave bands, tune to 11.249 mHz USB to hear Air Force 1 (the president's plane) and Air Force 2 (the vice president's plane).
