Can one of the radio experts here provide the frequency (or frequencies)
on which the U.S. Navy's fleetwide broadcast, the Fox Schedule, was
transmitted?  Samuel Eliot Morison writes that the Fox Schedule
"consisted of powerful, long-range, very-low-frequency broadcasts" ("The
Battle of the Atlantic," page 103).  I am 99.9 percent sure that this is
wrong, that the standard broadcast would have been on medium- or
high-frequency, and that VLF was used only for submarines.  But I would
like confirmation of that if possible.  Thanks.

      Regards,
