Showing your frequency as 137781.605 to 137781.616. While there are no assigned frequencies we've 
tended to operate on certain frequencies over the years to aid in identification under weak signal 
conditions ... especially T/A work. XNS typically holds down 137781.000. If 137781.500 suits your 
fancy it's available ;~)
