 Hello Scott, thanks for the info om! Put in a order
for one this morning, went ahead and sprung for the
cable & software. Going to be in Anchorage next week
looking forward to traveling around and logging some
of the vhf/uhf activity there. Anchorage is a big
city (for me :) lots of things to monitor not to
mention the nearby military bases. 
 Theres many remote military commo sites up here
that are unmarked on maps. On our camping trips
we take off from Barrow and head towards the Brooks
Range on 4 wheelers (no roads). Anyways out in the
middle of nowhere here's all this high tech commo
stuff out on the tundra. Once a fire was burning
across the tundra north of the Brooks, we knew about
where the fire was, sure enough some black helicopters
showed up and kept an eye on these things. There
was a blub (small article) in the Anchorage newspaper
about some remote equipment that is powered by a 
power generator that utilizes a radioactive core
(compeletly self contained) that generates electricity
and everythings okay.
Strange stuff up here ....
 Might spend this winter in Anchorage, dunno yet
but from what folks have written about this device
will be able to monitor different things that I'd 
most likely miss all together.
 If its RF, man I like to monitor it ... know you
folks can relate ;)

The sun sure has been active lately ... hf propagation
up here in the arctic is in the gutter ...

 Well gotta run for now Scott, thanks again for the
info ... havent heard one negative remark about 
optoelectronics gear ...

Cheers! ...
Attu  aka  tundra monitor
