Hi All.

A frequency to watch out for with the RAC - 470.875Mhz.

Unlike the other RAC frequencies which carry both voice and data (which make them a pain to listen to), this one is just voice.

I'm thinking it's the battery mob but not sure... feel free to post here what you hear :-)

What do you hear on their channels, not being sarcastic I just never thought that people would listen or what they would hear?

No idea...

I've got it on the scan group I listen to now, see if I can hear anything interesting.

Most jobs go through the data channels but they still use that frequency for enquiries.

I did have some RAC frequencies. I got them out of a scanner book but they were listed as being western power.....I have no idea why.

Sometimes you will hear the patrol man asking the radio operator to make a note on the job for whatever reason.
I also know an RAC man and Ive heard him on the radio once or twice.

There's more to scanning than WAPOL and FESA :)

Plenty to listen to out there, i'm not sure what quite a lot of you out there are going to do with your poor old scanners when the cops go digital!

There's lots of cool stuff to hear, just need to do a bit of research and find out the frequencies.
