The Roulettes are usually 'in the clear', and often use a frequency in the 118-138 mhz band. Past frequencies include:
133.9 (though they won't use this one in Perth)
133.8
136.2
126.2
257.1
264.5
268.8
288.6
325.8
335.8
338.5
375.4
Though this doesn't necessarily mean they'll use any of these this weekend.

Nothing that exciting I'm afraid - just a bit of info that related very slightly to an earlier post I thought he might be interested in.

G'day Steve,
My suggestion is to send Nafenn a quick PM - that way if he has "notify by email when a PM is received" turned on, he'll know to come check
Cheers,

Last year, 126.2 was in operation for their flyby. Not much talking though - more "Devil 1, Go".... That was it. Race Control has the most action on 127.9.
Cheers, CC

They're on 136.2

136.2 is their 'air-to-air' frequency. When they're inside the 'box' they switch to 120.85, then go back to 136.2 once the display is complete and they depart the restricted area.
