Terry Colgan also sent along some information regarding lists of VHF
stations that are published. These lists are divided into different
sections (e.g., Business, Fire, etc.) and are arranged variously by
states-towns and by frequency. However, they do run at a substantial
cost (i.e., $25 and up). For more information contact:
