A GENERAL GUIDE TO SCANNING
Reception of the frequencies covered by your scanner is mainly “line-of-sight.” That
means you usually cannot hear stations that are beyond the horizon.
HAM RADIO FREQUENCIES
Ham radio operators often broadcast emergency information when other means of
communication break down.
The following chart shows the voice frequencies that you can monitor:
