[Scan-DC] NPS-Capital Parks

[Kenneth N4VKF]

The UHF frequencies may just be used at the Wolftrap performing arts park.  I don't think Wolftrap is part of the National Capital Parks.  They have a special misson.

This has been a task of mine for a while, so I am very curious too. Please
include me in any answers found.

I have personally heard NPS comms on VHF repeaters 169.775, 170.05,
170.5125, 173.825, and 172.45 (all with NAC 4C5). I don't know their usage
or channel names.

Also, I believe Wolf Trap operates on UHF freqs. I have identified 408.975
and 410.5125 (with the same NAC 4C5).
