  I have been using that site over the last few weeks - initially for the
Tas./Vic. Bush fires, and yesterday for the Qld./NSW floods. It appears that
only large City areas Syd./Melb./Bris. Use APCO P25 (Govt. Radio Network).
The outer and semi rural areas still seem to be using 'analog' open channel
comms.  on the 467 - 469mHz band, which they been using for many years.

  Unrelated Topic: Does anyone know the mod./trick that allows the Uniden
BC-72/92XLT scanner to be used as a 'frequency counter' probably part of the
"Close Call" feature.

  Cheers,

  John Barnhill
