I have found a tonne of frequencies from the Uniden site, but I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a particular channel they use up Geraldton/Kalbarri way.....

Thanks in advance :)

If you tell us exactly "where north" is, then we could probably get you some frequencies.

They differ from location to location...

Thank you for that.....I will let you know how I go or if I get any more frequencies the commercial fishermen use also. Won't be until end of January though.

See you then!

BTW - north is Kalbarri (in the hope of catching some decent sized fish!). Either that or providing fish food via berley :oops:

Hi all....

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you all....lots to organise after a full month away from home :D

Thank you for those frequencies - although there was diddly squat happening up there except for the Volunteer Marine Rescue that ran on the 27MHz channel. I kept my marine radio on that one and my scanner on all the other frequencies with not one hit the whole time there! Not to worry it was worth a shot and I got more acquainted with my new scanner. And as for the fishing....I thought I'd leave the mulloway and tailor there until next year when they have sized up a bit :cry:
