in Washington, D.C., Maryland, northern Virginia and lower Delaware. CHM sponsors
occasional tours and meetings. The club's newsletter supplements other hobbyist

The CHM Newsletter
The Capitol Hill Monitor is the non-profit newsletter of the Capitol
Hill Monitors. The newsletter keeps scanner enthusiasts abreast of local meetings,
tours, frequency profiles and other topics of interest.
This is a private list (your e-mail is safe from spam). The dues only cover
mailing costs for people who are unable to receive the newsletter online.
Ten mailed issues are $10. There are no other fees or dues associated with
CHM.
Scan-DC
is an electronic-mailing list dedicated to discussion of scanner radio-related
topics in the Washington-Baltimore area. List members send messages to the
MailMan software which distributes the messages to all list members. Members
can receive the messages individually, or in a periodic digest which collects
multiple messages and distributes them as a single message.
