This afternoons pass on the fo29 as it came up the east coast had 3 mobils on simplex talking to each other.They did not appear to be amateurs. They all had Strong southern accents.As the bird made its way north,their mobil flutter disappeared.When the sat was parallel with North and south Carolina they were were rock solid.They were discussing their location on the Beltline,which means nothing to me here in Michigan. They were on 145.950 mhz.Does this make sense to anyone in that area? WB8RJY

If you'd like I can post fliers on I 95 while between here and there. Imagine some bored trucker looking at the fliers board when he sees......

I shot an arrow in the air. It landed I know not where.
The dude owns a "cb" shop and has an "engineering degree". Chatting with him for 20 minutes let him know that I knew. Kept arguing with me about who owns what spectrum.
It took 10 minutes of explaining the use terrestrial FM on a protected sub band for his eyes to tell me he got it.
Explaining that all we need to know is where they are and then have the Federales waiting down the road. Literally.
The touch of fear tells me that the message is on it's way.
