Re: Jeep Wrangler RFI
That's odd. When I was setting up my 2019 Tacoma I was worried about mounting an antenna to the hood. I was pleasantly surprised at how quiet it turned out. Chrysler used to publish a guide for the radio installation, but they probably don't do that any more. Maybe talk to someone in the service dep...

Re: Jeep Wrangler RFI
Modern vehicles are supposed to have better RFI suppression because of the multiple computers they have. Could it be a grounding problem? If it's not a new vehicle, I'd check all of the grounding points and look at the body to frame ground straps.From my memories of the old days body on frame vehicl...

Re: 8/4 All Day
It seems that way. I wasn't surprised to receive it in the hills of Sudbury, but out in Needham was unexpected. OTOH, I used to pick up the EDACS system as far as Rte 24 in Randolph fairly often. It seems the additional Shrewsbury sites really improved it's foot print east. Not sure why but it did.

Re: 8/4 All Day
I was receiving the Worcester P25 system on I-95 at the Needham Flats. Not bad considering how much RF is floating around out there.

Re: 1 Congress St. Boston
A friend told me about that yesterday when we were talking about this. He does a lot of work in Boston and knows a lot of people in the trades. They weren't trespassers as they were stealing tools and equipment from the site. Lots of fail there and my friend thinks that OSHA will shut the site down ...

Re: MBTA Provice
There isn't. However one of the bidders may only be able to provide 1,199 trunked Talk Groups and so won't be able to meet the specification. If they are operating under MGL Chapter 30B (Uniform Procurement Law), the contract must go to the "lowest responsive bidder." A bidder can be non r...

Re: MBTA Provice
You're right, DSDPlus doesn't follow EDACS. For some reason, my brain never retains that. :( I keep meaning to try Unitrunker again, but never seem to find the time. Thats the thing. The dongles worked fine before but now instead of edacs it shows the system as sitepro and spews random data and not ...

Re: MBTA Provice
It wouldn't be the dongles per se, it would be Unitrunker. I haven't used Unitrunker in some time so I don't recall if it follows EDACS trunking. Pro Voice is just digital voice, it doesn't involve the trunking part of the system. DSDPlus follows the trunking and processes Pro Voice audio. I use two...

Re: IDAS and DMR - 451.4875
Definitely IDAS, I can hear it quite clearly as a trunk system at my QTH. 451.500 is among other things one of the frequencies for the Gillette Stadium operations Cap+ system. Signal strength for that has been down to my location of late, but it does sometimes override 451.49375. Some of the traffic...

It's very odd as it's only this forum that is effected. I'm sure I'll figure it out at some point and it's not a big deal. Oddly enough, the Wiki isn't effected at all.

I don't know if it's me or not, but I don't stay logged in on the forum. Periodically, more or less at random, it I have to log in again. It does not happen on the Wiki or any other websites on which I usually stay logged in.
