I would suggest that you look up that particular frequency on a search engine and see what results come back to you. But, I must warn you... The spectrum in America is highly regulated, and most likely, you are operating in a portion of the spectrum that is reserved for a particular radio service. Those who are licensed for their portion of the spectrum are highly protective and don't look kindly on interlopers. I can assure you that if somebody finds an UNLICENSED operator in the spectrum, they will turn the operator in to the FCC. The penalties can be very harsh.<u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">If I were you, I would tread very carefully, as the spectrum is monitored closely by the FCC. So, just because a radio is capable of transmitting on a particular frequency, it has no bearing on the fact that you could be breaking the law when you key the transmitter. It's sort of like a car that can do a hundred MPH. Just because it can operate at that speed, you wouldn't want to try to do that on a city street.<u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">I trust this helps.<u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">Best wishes,<u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">Steve Wiggins<u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">AMATEUR EXTRA<u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">W4GOK<u></u><u></u></p></div></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><div><p class="MsoNormal">On Thu, Sep 8, 2016 at 3:03 PM, Dave Zoller <<a href="mailto:dzoller@reddevil.com" target="_blank">dzoller@reddevil.com</a>> wrote:<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">I just got a set of Baofeng BF-888S radios from Amazon and Chirp works<br>like a dream for programming them.
