 That's what a lot of eavesdroppers said in 1962 when SDPD went from
 2490Kc to 155MHz.  No more image frequencies on the AM-BC band to
 listen to.  Years later I pulled a 2-week summer tour at NavyMARS
 at Miramar and discovered a couple hundred mobile units with AM
 receivers for 2490 and FM transmitters for somethin like 74MHz.
 Also found several dozen LAPD mobile units with the same setup.
 Those early days were great for monitoring 'cause every agency in
 the county shared that 2490Kc frequency.  We could hear SDPD-Station A,
 CVPD-Station C, Coronado PD-Station D, NCPD-Station Q, SDSO-Station M,
 CHP-Station T, SDFD-Station F, Oceanside PD-Station O, and half a
 dozen others. They all began to drop off HF and moved to VHF. SDPD
 was the last.
