Horizon shows these JR receivers on 72,50,AND 53 :  236(PCM), 549(FM),
649(PCM), 910(PCM)
I haven't looked at the modules yet  BUT I am currently using 53.3 in my

Doesn't JR make 53mhz stuff anymore??  I'm on all Airtronics now, but
all of my JR stuff was on 53.  We did have a local repeater running on
53.8 which caused us some grief until we figured it out, but as you
said, it was only a matter of coordinating with the hams.  We stayed of
53.8 and they were excellent about keeping their equipment in tune.

Bill,
    I have not tried a set of headphones.  What would I hook them up to
?
I do not have a 6 meter rig to monitor the frequency with, I guess that
is
one possibility.  Or I could scavange an old receiver, add a diode
detector
and put some headphones after that.  My good receivers are pcm and fm.
    If it is a ham, probably all I have to do is coordinate with him.
I'm more
concerned if it is a CBer overmodulating and running a linear.
    Too bad noone makes any 53 Mhz modules and recievers.
Thanks,
Paul
