[Elecraft] Alaska Emergency Frequency 5.1675 MHz USB

[Nr4c]

Is this an Amateur frequency or a state/federal emergency net frequency for emergencies?  If the radio thinks it's out-of-band it probably is. I don't have my 60meter freq chart handy and if this is one of our frequencies  disregard all comments above.
