Occasionally I hear something. My Kenwood 440 went off to
be repaired so I can't listen there at the moment. I'm
going to ask the guy to open it up so I can check it out a
little more. TO me it's a good band for region
emergency/disaster comms. I"m interested in seeing it used
more by public service nets etc. SO far not much, but
occasionally I'll hear a qso on it.
WHat we don't use we lose.
