THE SEARCH & RESCUE RECORDING COLLECTION:

Over the years I recorded a number of interesting Search & Rescue stations on the VHF and HF Bands, and a number of them are now available on this webpage. I hope to add more as and when I find them, and will also record any new ones heard on the air in the future. With so many services vanishing of the airwaves these days I am keen to at least keep some record of what was once audible.
