<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>No, I saw the display of the radio, and for certain
it said 3040. Thanks for info though.. I didn't know they used
30mhz. maybe it was 34.3040? It was the size of a large HF rig with
a gooseneck stud mounted antenna that you could bend so the driven element was
vertical, and the driven element was a piece of O.D. carpenter's tape about 3'
long. The radio had a battery back on the rear end of it. But alas,
I guess I was just suprized that a radio op wouldn't know more about his
radio.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Army helicopters use frequencies in the 34 MHz range (FM
mode). Perhaps he said, thirty-fourty and it sounded like 3040, but
should have been 34.40 MHz.<BR>
