[Scan-DC] "Firebuffs" frequency -- 452.975 MHz?

[Andrew Clegg]

I have my HP parked on the channel this evening with auto record on. Will 
let you know what else I hear. I'll be travelling for the rest of the week, 
though, so if there's no more excitement this evening, I'll have to try 
again after Saturday.

Is Vito a member of Scan-DC?
