Gary, those are Zone Wide for any P25 voice on Zone 8, yes mostly heard are FCROG users, but any of the P25 TG's can/have been heard

There are some digital channels on Zone 8, but mostly for Franklin County.

most people have generally programmed just the 4 CC's - but...others have done ALL the frequencies, just in case. but YMMV, unless you find that one of the voice-channels belongs to another trunk near-by Thank you all for the responses. This helped tremendously. I appear to be getting Zone 8 so far....

Band has been wide open into NH/ME this am, from the South Shore of Boston
but now is moving more Southerly - now getting the Cape on VHF Federal CCNS etc

that should be Zone 8

You could be in a bad spot. Got to the web page at https://www.snewiki.com/wiki/index.php/Massachusetts_State_Police#System_Frequencies and manually step or enter each of the control channels (CC) for Zone 5 and/or Zone 8, see what you pick up I would not think you would get any of the 700 (Metro Bo...

Missed that, but, ... most (non local) people don't know that South Boston is part of Boston, and I would think a rumor such as that would have made bigger news...

Haven't tried UHF and above, but VHF has been great from ME/NH down to us on the South Shore

I'm hearing from Portland Simulcast and many MSCOMM sites all the way down to Newport Naval Station - all from southern NH

Some nice hopes that the RED moves East and maybe some PA/OH into MA

MOVED to 9/13

Yes, NH and ME VHF are coming in quite well, as it the Merrimack Valley T-Band

Thanks
I'm doubt'n Noble as they are simplex and did not have the 2nd freq +5, but then again, stranger things have happened.

I'll reconfirm Monday if Noble (School District 60) buses are still 155.220 S/186.2.

Either Seacoast NH or Southern Maine.

No locations given, but is a Bus/Transportation company.
Was thinking it could be WQBX971 - NOBLE HIGH SCHOOL but they are simplex only

:) Always helps to narrow / rule out the image issue. Yesterday at Pease, I was getting so much DMR from 450/460 in the 406-420 and tones of PD's (Non Maine) in the 162-174, ouch , made it tough to nail down some stuff, but the obvious NAC's helped. Back on topic, maybe they found coverage in the sc...

Would not be the first time, someone set up a VOX Simplex to listen to their Scanner(s)

Years ago (80/90) there was one out in Western MA or Hartford that was patched for the Fire Buffs to monitor

true, but with 453/460 well occupied......

Looks like the Sewer and Water don't need it anymore if they are giving it to the PD

451.2750 will be converted to P25 and use the NAC of 73B , over Tue and Wed Hi, heard that this coming week Plymouth PD will be going to P25, 12th I think they said (FB, so, consider the source!) I imagine they'd keep the same frequency, what might the NAC be? Some of the other towns that just went ...

Dave, just to be sure it is not an IMAGE from Hudson PD's main channel, try it on a 2nd Scanner, that is a different MAKE and see if you still get it. There is a frequency that is assigned to the hudson school district and it sounds like PD is simulcast on it? I discovered it the other day. 151.9250...
