Was at REI Seattle today, armed with all their licensed freqs. Heard nothing, and observed no one with a radio, even the parking cashier/security guy.

Others:

453.0125 (D432)- Repeated, sounded like security in a building somewhere. Another user came on and was trying to find out how many chairs were needed for an event. Met Park Towers on Olive Way uses this freq, but with a tone of D025. Maybe they switched?

461.350 (123.0)- The old Seafirst Bank security freq, now I have no idea. Conversations were far too short to get an idea of who this was. V Mason and the Hutch use this one, as well as a building on Westlake Ave. Repeated.

The library uses a contractor; does REI?

Yeah, I think his patch said Northwest Protective. I was busy arguing a two-dollar parking charge. I did see an old-school cordless phone in his little booth, but no radio.

ETA- after looking at their website, I'm around 80% positive it was Northwest Protective.

There's also web links to NPS use, and Canada has licenses for (BC/Yukon) a construction materials firm and a bus operator (Kelowna).

Wasn't Sea-First Bank on 461.375 and not 461.35 ???

Methinks you're right, Mike. I used to have some surplus Moto Expos on the Seafirst freqs.
