Washington Gas had baffled me for years too.  Apparently the 10-channel 900 
MHz trunk was "over designed" by hams who work for Washington Gas.  Most of 
the company's communication is via cell phone and mobile computer.  I 
noticed a big loss in radio traffic when the crews were installed with 
mobile computers.  They kept the radio for back-up, I assume.

Remember when Washington Gas used 48.5 MHz?  That was the second IF for the 
Pro-200x series.  Heard them all over low band as a result.
