Wow. I got 4 sets of WalMart Goodyears on my various Mercedes cars
and trucks. Ever


okay. I can get this sort-of on-topic and sort-of off-topic.

by that I mean radio (tv) related. The FCC does define tv as radio
broadcasting.

so it has been reported that the new radio scanners that have video capability
(such as the IC-R3) can recieve the tv images that are transmitted by the
Goodyear blimp.

Sorry, I don't know the frequencies, (it's NOT shortwave, therefore sort of
off-topic, but is radio related, so therefore sort of on-topic).

however, with the way I've seen my IC-R3 perform on 2.4 GHZ frequencies, I
would imagine that you would have to be inside the blimp to see the video
transmissions from it on the R3.

or is the transmitter on the outside.

I gues in that case, you would have to be dangling and hanging onto the outside
of the blimp to see the video transmissions from it on an IC-R3.

My advice: Get a wavecom video reciever and tramsmitter, or X-10 or something.

although those are limited in frequencies to only four specific channels which
the blimp may or may not use for video transmissions.
