Happy New Year everyone!
Great message Jim. It's good to see some traffic on the list.
I know I've been silent of late, but work has had me traveling a lot and I
am now a brand-new, first-time grandfather and our new grandson, along with
my son and daughter-in-law have been living with us since just prior to the
birth of my grandson in October. We've gone from being a family of 2 to a
family of 5. So, my free time has been severely limited.
I still plan to fire off an occasional topical email to this list, though.
Monitor till it hertz!
Ron Miller

Regarding military air, The only Narrow Band Fm you get in the 225-400MHz
band is from 380MHz to 400MHz, There is also some satellite NFM in the band.
here are the steps to do a search on the vr-500
Hit the v f o key, the third one down from the power button.
Next enter a lower frequency then hit the lower right or enter key
Next hold the function key, (push to talk), and the 3 key until you hear a
long beep.
Now enter the upper frequency and Press the enter key again.
Hold the function key and 3 again until you hear another long beep.
Finally, hold down the function key and tap the 3 key. This will initiate
scanning of the search window you have specified.
Pressing the function key and tapping the 3 key, you will hear 2 high beeps
then a low beep. If you leave it on low beep the search function will hold
on a frequency for 5 seconds before scanning resumes.
Leaving the Set mode is as easy as pressing CLR.
To set a memory enter a frequency or pause on a desired frequency. press
the function key and tap the 2 key. Then while still pressing the function
key press 2 again.
