[Scan-DC] Helicopter ID?

[JWilliamH at aol.com]

Hello,
 
Sounds like you saw "Chopper 2."  Red Robinson R44 based out of  Manassas 
Airport.  They can be heard giving traffic reports on 455.9125  (Metro Networks) 
and they provide footage to CBS 9 on 450.0875.

This  morning there was an incident on 355 in Gaitherburg and a bright red   
helicopter hovered over the area for a good while.  It was fairly  small,  
had white lettering on the narrow tail and had a housing  under the main  
rotor that looked like the conning tower of a  submarine or a truncated  
shark fin (my daughter's  description).  Something like on a J2  
gyrocopter.  Any  idea whose helicopter this might be--news station,  
medivac  etc.?
