   Last nite, John schreibt:
======================
I a taking a trip to DC and wanted to see if anyone can help me.

I will be taking my BC-780, HT1250 (VHF), HT1000 (UHF) and maybe my Kenwood 
TK-380 (UHF)

I like listening to RailRoad, GMRS, Fire

I will be between DC and Ft. Meade
I will be down from May2-8th if there is any intresting stuff I should know 
about tell me. I like action.
=========================
   John DC fire is on 800 digital; nothing you have there will handle 
it.  The same can be said of Montgomery and Howard county fire.  There are 
a few analog rebroadcasts; you can find that information here:

   I'm not sure whether DC fire has an analog rebroadcast, tho.

   Hopefully there are a few Railfans here, but in case there isn't; 
there's a few RR freqs for the DC area you can find on Dave Marshall's site:

   And I kinda cringe when I have to use this site; the data here is very 
very dated, but it's a start, at least; look at the Transportation 
frequencies at:

   and of course, don't forget Radioreference com, where the WMATA system 
is laid out:

   Of course, the LISR and Radioreference sites require registration, but 
it's painless and free.
