Yes,
During the sixties I think they were between 1650 and 1700. I remember this 
Ham in the neighborhood, when I was a kid, tweaking everyones AM radios ro 
recieve them.

In fact, in George Carlin's early days ("Wonderful WINO, in Western Walla,

He announces the station's frequency as, "just above the police calls".
