I was tempted to email Tisha to ask about what sorts of communications  
she installs or works on, but instead I went surfing for information  
about digital television.  (I still wonder if it will be useful to get  
one of those converter boxes so our "old" analog TV set can receive  
something off the air.)   I found a website that gives LOTS of  
information about frequency allocations of all sorts, including:

-family radio
-National Weather Service (NOAA)
-Digital TV channels
-marine VHF channels
-BCB am clear channels
-cable tv channels

Anyway, with an R-390 of any sort and a converter or two,  you can  
surf to frequency regions you never knew existed!

Here at K1LKY, there are two ECM receivers of very early sort - the   
APR-4Y.  They have tubes, and 30 mc IF and baseband video outputs and  
they tune up to about 1000 mc.  With that, I can listen in on most  
cable tv channels, it turns out.

Sooo  many projects, soo little time.
