I actually meant the wildcard feature on the FCC license site. If you don't know the precise name of the company, put in a partial name and it will come up with everything that's close and some things that aren't. It's how I found all of the licenses for a couple of systems. Wildcard is good I progr...

That works well, although at times it can be slow. There are more reports available at the "Table of Contents" in the upper left hand corner. Sometimes I'll search by name using the wildcard feature. It's surprising what comes up from time to time. I use this address. https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/Gener...

Driving home tonight, I picked up the Worcester P25 trunk in Randolph and Stoughton. Very unusual to receive that this far away from Worcester.

Computers, because they have very accurate clocks, understand human patterns of work, and are evil, do that on purpose.

You can't turn your back on them for one second.

FCC confirmed that the server had developed an issue over the weekend. Should be resolved now.

At least I know it's not me!

I am getting the same message. I opened a ticket with them.

The FCC database is being weird again. Using this website works, but the others listed here just give me a security protocol violation message.

I should say, it sort of works, but returns no results.

Maybe I've been bad or something.

Good work. I plan to continue as I have time hitting random Wiki pages and checking on external links. Websites come and go with some regularity, even government ones. So, as with frequency information, it makes sense to reconfirm them from time to time. All 2,009 wiki pages have been viewed and tho...

I took a look at it, but I don't think I changed anything. At least not on purpose. On the VT and RI military pages, I removed the formatting characters that were causing issues, but nothing else. I've correcting the external links that returned 404 messages when I can find updated pages. Those aren...

Try it now.

I noticed that the VT military and the RI military links in the wiki load as blank pages. Also, I would be pulling my hair out working my way through the bugs. Great job you guys, a lot of patience and sacrificing your free time. Appreciate it on this end.

On the BAPERN page, https://scan-ne.net/wiki/index.php?title=BAPERN, the PDF map loads a blank page. http://www.scan-ne.net/data/bapernmap.pdf

I figured it out after a bit. That message applies to new/updated passwords only. I guess it will nag me to do something, but allow me to just click through with the old one. Kind of weird, but not a problem.

The Wiki now seems to require a ten character password. Can that be changed or do we need new passwords?

Yes.

I have found that even the newer SDR dongles need some adjustment based on what band you're trying to listen to. Airspy is the only hardware that is always spot on. On my mobile set up, I always "calibrate" the control dongle first on a known system. Once that's done, I'll adjust the voice dongle. S...

The FCC database goes off line with annoying regularity. That aside, thanks for those links. It's much easier now to find new frequencies than it was in the pre Internet days. I remember going to the Customs House and then Quincy to search the Microfiche files for new licenses back in the 1980s and ...

I'm hearing the One Voice Paxton site on 484.9625 and 464.7625. I hear them now and then, when the conditions are right.

I'll be up with a friend Friday. We plan to leave as early as possible in the morning, but arrival time will depend on Boston traffic. We'll be there most of the day, as long as my friend isn't too whiny. Can't make Saturday. I keep asking for you at the GEMOTO tent, but you never seem to be around.

I just did with no issue. All seems well.

A really big crowd, but there always seems to be. Of course it's mid winter and there isn't a lot else to do. I actually spent more time on a phone call with a friend than I did wandering around the the tables. I did notice a good deal of not all that old commercial gear, especially Motorola. Nothin...

I got there around 10:00 AM. Parking lot was crowded, as it always is. Seems like there were more sellers this year than the last time I went. I ended up getting a Dell 14" flat screen monitor for $2.00. I was actually looking for something smaller, but for that price I figured that if it didn't wor...

That explains it, then. I've never seen that on any other forum.

Thanks,

Gary

The PM remains in the outbox until the recipient reads it. If it still in the outbox, it hasn't been read.

Is anyone else having an issue sending Private Messages? I've sent a couple in the past few days, but they seem to be stuck in my Outbox. I get an acknowledgement that they were went, but it doesn't seem that they are actually being sent.

That or some other none voice data used by someone. I don't know that I'll ever figure it out, but just getting UniTrunker back on line and playing with LTR Analyzer make the time well spent. It's a good reminder to me that all is not DMR and NXDN in the business radio world. :) The signal you menti...

Update: 461.5000 appears to be the National Grid LTR Passport system in Lincoln, RI. One mystery solved. Back to the other frequency. This just gets more curious as I go along. 461.5125 has a constant control channel signal. It's not LRT, doesn't appear to be Motorola, and it's not digital. I'm lost...
