[NSRCA-discussion] Useless Information

[Nat Penton]

I have a 1981 ?? Futaba 5 ch radio with a 72.240 module and a red/white freq flag (  right colors ??? ). When did we get 50 channels ? When did we go narrow band ? Good memory, huh ?

The radio is installed in a bat looking tailess alongside a piped OPS Redhead. About 130mph S @ L. I plan to give it to AMA if I ever get to Muncie.

  I did not know these off the top of my head (or any other part thereof):  :-)

  26.995 - brown
  27.045 - red
  27.095 - orange
  27.145 - yellow
  27.195 - green
  27.255 - blue   (shared CB frequency!!!)

  Those frequencies still exist and can be used.  :-O

  More useless trivia: what type of feedback mechanism was used in the old Heathkit servos (NOT a potentiometer).

    OK, now for the next quiz on useless information:  What were the 27 MHz frequencies and what were their respective frequency flag colors? 


    BTW, I had a salami and cheese sandwich yesterday, or was that today?

        There were seven 72 MHz frequencies, as I remember (if I'm wrong, someone will jump in and correct me).

      Part of the useless information that is forever stuck in my memory banks, taking space away from more important things (like what I ate for lunch yesterday).

      Technically, there were just six 72 MHz, and one 75 MHz.

      72.080 brown/white
      72.160 blue/white
      72.240 red/white
      72.320 purple/white
      72.400 orange/white
      72.960 yellow/white
      75.640 green/white

      Some were dedicated to aircraft, while some were shared with surface vehicles (which ones, I don't remember). Scary, huh!!!
