SEARCHING FOR AND TEMPORARILY
STORING ACTIVE FREQUENCIES
Good references for active frequencies are Radio Shack’s “Police Call
Radio Guide Including Fire and Emergency Services,” “Aeronautical
Frequency Directory,” and “Maritime Frequency Directory.” We update
these directories every year, so be sure to get a current copy.
If you do not have a reference to frequencies in your area, or if you want
to search for unlisted frequencies, use a limit search or direct search.
