    Highly likely to be encrypted anyway id think. One idea is that they
    are using some of the ESC band channels as A 1/4 wave for
    ~250-300mhz is also a 1/2 wave at 500-600mhz. Would be cool if
    someone could do close call on their scanner next time they see one,

            How do you figure 300Mhz? The length could be tuned for some
            other<br>
            harmonic? (I've not heard of spectrum at 300Mhz being used
