What frequency or frequencies do you hear all these aircraft on so often ?

I lived in a unit about a year ago and i didnt even and i was using a desktop discone with a grove preamp and i could hear aircraft up to 500 km away on the he ground on a full signal strength and the audio was clear as anything. Regards Lino. Your unit must of been about 1000 meters above sea leve...

Hi Lino, I picked up my AH-7000 second hand with no coax or connectors, but the antenna had never been used so it was virtually brand new and i already had and use Belden 9913 for the feedline. I used to use a preamp and down here in the country you need all the help you can get as well as a high an...

Hi Lino, What testing/practices did you use to determine that the Icom AH-7000 is better than the Diamond ( i assume we're all talking about the 130-J ) ? I used to use the Diamond D-130J and now use a Icom AH-7000 but i read somewhere they were the same antenna - Diamond just made it for Icom and a...

How do you "Trun on "

During the day try 8867khz, 8879khz, 11396khz, 13261khz
Night 8867khz, 6556khz, 5643khz, 5634khz, 3467khz

Domestic WA 6565khz 24Hours ,8843 & 8822khz day

9340khz is a Australian shared NAVY, AIR, ARMY RAAF network.

123.45 is recognised by Airservices Australia as the air-to-air frequency. In my experience you need to listen to it exclusively for a while to pick anything up - transmissions are often short so if you're scanning 123.45 along with a lot of other aviation frequencies there's a good change you'll m...

On Longwave i can hear Perth ATIS on 272khz, Jandakot on 281khz and Pearce on 340Khz quite well down here in Bunbury.

ACMA Website shows the date approved as 18th Sept 06 but in my original posting i could hear it in Bunbury on the 7th August 06.
So i wonder why was it on air before being approved ?

What are you actually doubting ?

goes out about 10 Klms ?

Repeaters ?

i can receive it here in Bunbury around 50 Klms away with no 'repeaters' on my Discone, if you can't then you need a better antenna or something.

Geraldton Police Base Booming through 467.975Mhz at 4:50pm to Bunbury - Reported Stabbing in 6th Street with SJA organized, Domestic at Spalding and Damage Complaint in Sanford Street.

Fair effort picking up Gero from Bunbury. What setup do you use? Icom PCR1000 and Icom AH-7000 Discone and high quality coax. Usually only takes a whiff of an inversion to start picking up signals from Geraldton and as inversions follow weather trough line, they start from the west when running up ...

Geraldton Police come through to me regulary on 467.975Mhz during the afternoon and evening and also the Geraldton Taxi service comes through well on 164.225Mhz.

469.225 Mhz seems to carry alot of different traffic as well - Margaret River Mobiles calling their base, Busselton Mobiles calling their base and so on and alot more rego checks, there was about 10 in a row yesterday arvo by the same female officer, she must of been walking through a shopping centr...

Bunbury and Busselton Police have been very active on 469.225 Mhz lately using it as much as 468.175 Mhz.
