Default From OP: Mode Question Re 39.560 and 123.0 MHz ?

Hi Bill:

Frankly mainly noise, but occasionally some garbled conv. irrespective of
whether I have fm or AM set.

Guess I'll just forget about it.
Was only curious.

Thanks for help, and all the past help.

Bob

Normally 39.560MHz would be FM mode, and 123.000MHz would be AM mode.
What are you hearing on 123.000MHz?

Hello:

new at his.

Found the following freq's that apparently my town utilizes.

Are the modes fm for Both, or... ?

39.560 MHz
123.000

The 123.0 one is particularly perplexing for me, as I thought that puts
it in the middle of the AM band,
which I always thought would be just for aero. Would a Town service use
AM rather than fm ? Why, if so ?

Thanks,
B.
