Well I never thought about the dpw channel which could be, However the trunking system that the city owns is on UHF, the main band conventional channel they use is VHF, That's got that multi band sting in there again, There's also AWIN, I thought of that too, Also I thought simplex, I did a search of every band I could think of with no luck, Especially the VHF band, However There must be more than one because he told them to do a radio check to make sure pd had the right one, They were about 5 miles from the PD on portables and PD monitored their traffic at 20 feet in the air, So I thought me being 60 and about 4 miles away I'd sure hear them but I didn't find them anywhere, A different pl or anything, I have a friend who is on the local pd here, I emailed and asked him if he could give it to me, If he doesn't I'll be back to square 1, If he does, problem solved but It just had me puzzled. I thought certain it was in the VHF band with the regular conventional. I was right on top of them when they switched so even as simplex I'd thought I'd heard them. But I guess I'll just keep an eye out and see what I can do if they won't tell me. I'm not even sure what kind of radio's the city uses really. I Don't think they're multi banded though. I'd say single band VHF HI Being that the TAC 1 would have to be 150-170, Right? I searched from 140 all the way up to 170 with no luck, Then the UHF 400's, Followed by AWIN, I came up empty handed on them all. Then I started monitoring the regular channel they use as CSQ thinking it was on another PL tone but that turned up nothing either, I may just have to see what I can dig up on that. It's got to be somewhere in that band or at least on something monitorable...Strange..
