I have a quick question, if someone could help me, I just always wondered, what frequencies are Ham radios/CB radios are in? In one of my area that is out in the country I can get a real strong signal thats I think in 149.  ? mhz I cant remember the excact number, but would that be a ham radio frequency? |

Yeah, 149 MHz falls into the 2 meter amateur band. You can see a list of ham frequiencies on the ARRL website. [pdf]CB (11 meters) is just below the Amateur 10 meter band. That runs from 26.965MHz to 27.405MHz. Hope this helps73, KB2MOB |

I think 149 is also used for Civil Air Patrol. Here in E Tn. it was used at one time as a CAP packet frequency....Tim-KD4RNC

Maybe I am asking this question to the wrong people, but you seem to be knowledgably. Living in Johnson County Texas, Lillian area, I am trying to find scanner frequencies for the local volunteer fire department. And I think there is a frequency that they use to talk to county and state fire departments. Am I off base here? I would like to program them into my older Radio Shack scanner just so I can see what is going on when I hear the sirens, but can not for the life of me find any active numbers. I did ask one of the volunteers and he gave me a run around, basically, if you are not a fireman you don't need those numbers.. Ideas? Thanks.
