27785kHz AM.  Good to very good signal from the YL dispatch lady and the OM drivers!  Being able to hear the mobile reply on frequency is relatively rare. 

27.785 MHz AM 27.785MHz AM, yep, that's right, just 3.75 kHz above UK FM CB Channel 19 frequency 27.781 MHz 27.78125 MHz FM.  Of course, nothing coming in from the UK at the moment, but when the band is open enough, the UK FM CB CH19 traffic and the taxi cab dispatcher on 27.785 MHz cause some real havoc on each other.  The fact that one is using FM and the other is using AM makes it even more hectic.

Received via the W3HFU WebSDR receiver on 10/19/2026.  19.10.2026.
