There are still lots of pager transmitters working away around 137MHz, also
above and below the 70cm band. Get hold of a scanner and a program called
POCSAG to decode the data.
It is quite interesting.

Yes, they do still work. O2 left the business a few years ago and
Vodapager (who may be the only operator left - I'm not sure) were
delighted to mop up all the ex-O2 customers.

I don't understand the reference to "flex".

Mike.
