Re: Re: 380 MHz Federal Trunk System

Very little traffic and not interesting. Somebody mentioned it is possibly 
Camp Pendleton Marine base.
About 60-70 miles South of me.

If you have come here to find out about the 785D you have come to the right place! In fact the discussion of the BC-785D and how it works is the only acceptable topic on this list. Any discussion about anything other than the BC-785D is OFF TOPIC. I hope this is clear to all group members..
