A GENERAL GUIDE TO SCANNING
Reception of the frequencies covered by your scanner is mainly "Iine-of-sight."
That means you usually cannot hear stations that are beyond the horizon.
During the summer months, you might be able to hear stations in the 30 - 50
MHz range located several hundred or even thousands of miles away. This is be-
cause of summer atmospheric conditions. This type of reception is unpredictable
but often very interesting!

of communication break down.
