Scan New England

I was kidding I meant listenership for your accidental NOAA weather feed. But since you elaborated if the feed is just VHF simplex channels you'd get a much tighter reciever using a motorola radio it probably wouldn't be bothered by the pager. I could probably help you find a radio real cheap for t...

How many listeners did you have? When it is running normally, it varies between 10-30. When there is a fire call, because the town is all simplex, several members will put the feed on in their car while going to the station, as my reception is usually far better than their mobiles. My biggest issue...

Nothing beats after replacing the PC, and temporarily putting in NOAA audio to test the feed, then -forgetting- to put the scanner back in scan after 24 hours.

Moved to the RI forum. GolfTango, did you happen to catch which Timeslot the voice TG was in?
I can get it here but didn't ever hear any voice traffic.

Which time slot?

Guess who! LOL

39.6800 118.8 CHP Turquois Riverside 1

39.8600 173.8 Freeway Service Patrol - North

Anyway, last time I was up there, they were on UHF I think.

Uhhh. OK Beavis.

P25 NAC 470. Mix of clear and encrypted traffic. TG: 1. Signal is very good into my QTH, but that doesn't mean all that much as it's VHF. There was traffic regarding a transformer down and waiting for DPW to assess the damage. My guess is security or PD. Nothing at the FCC as far as license. At lea...

Almost entirely in Spanish. Nothing on my two omni antennas, and quite weak with the UHF beam aimed towards Boston.

I wonder if Brockton took all of their DMR sites and combined into a single trunked system.

463.2375 R C10 SL:1 TG:9999
463.2375 R C10 SL:2 TG:9998
463.5375 R C15 SL:1 TG:1
463.8875 R D156 High School
464.0375 R C05 SL:1 TG:9999

I wouldn't be surprised if 463.5375 and 463.8875 are the other sites.

I noticed that the Hillsborough County Sheriff has a new frequency, licensed to them on 2/22 of this year: WRWH629: 155.8725 Don’t know if anyone has noticed this new frequency and/or heard anything on it yet. I will be putting it in my scanners when I get back home. Excellent. Keep us posted. You'...

Please keep this topic on the thread regarding Smithfield Fire, and their transition to P25.

Off topic conversations such as RISCON and funding can be started in a new thread.

Thanks.

Why would they go back to analog? There are several fire departments now that have gone to P25 and stayed there.

I have it on good authority that Smithfield RI Fire as of Friday night 3/10/23 is now operating in digital mode ($343 NAC) on fire channels 1 and 2. I have not been able to verify if someone nearby could please check it out. Rich B. Moved to the Rhode Island forum. Yes I heard 154.1150 343h NAC jus...

Feel free to lock this thread at this point - no hard feelings. I know now to qualify any questions or comments I may have and consider if I may inadvertently be mistaken for "some people". I could also just be busting your chops. I have no issues, what so ever. Just me being a wise guy, ...

SHTF? Really?

Heard today while leaving One Financial Center in Downtown.

463.4250 TG 2700, CC3, SL1. I didn't catch enough of the voice traffic to give any clues.

I ran unitrunker on this system while driving down route 128. The signal strength peaked in Dedham, but was never very strong. This seems consistent with a transmit site in Boston somewhere. Not Needham, Quincy, or Blue Hill. Control channel was 859.9375. Alternate CC 859.7625, 858.7625, 858.3875. ...

The wiki had the second frequency listed as LCN 3, but Gary confirmed it was LSN 3/4, which would be LCN 2.
So that has been corrected. Remember the LCN is derived by the upper "even" LSN number /2.

Got nothing now in Needham.

FY The Control Channel is now 859.9375.

Bob, Why don't you just use a DMR scanner instead of something that can transmit? I know we don't offer advice here on programming commercial radios for systems users aren't authorized on , and it won't be given here either. I don't know if the unit can even work with Connect Plus, but regardless, t...

As has our friends in Aruba.

39.88 118.8

That would be "Blue 1 - Base".
