Just fyi, 483.2375 is San Dimas L-Tac, so that would be the unincorporated area of Covina

Covina (City of) has their own PD on 154.7250

Walnut / San Dimas L-Tac

Also i seem to hear different cities all the time on these frequencies. i asked the question before on here before. i was told these things....

It's simply that the dispatcher holding LKW/CER is also holding SDM/WAL. so the traffic is repeated on both.

Often a dispatcher will talk on more than one dispatch channel at the same time.

Correct. A little listening note also. For something that is going to take a while to go throug, such as a critical missing person (which is what this would be considered), the units will eventually be looking to go to a dedicated channel, usually an A-Tac. You want to listen for that so you can follow along as the incident changes channels

The back and forth will go something like this.

A critical missing (920C) will go out over the dispatch channel.
The handling and assisting units will do their initial coordination/response over the L-Tac (some stations will start on dispatch using the duplex patch prior to switchint also).

Once the units get on scene the handling unit will make a broadcast on the dispatch channel (using the duplex patch). Then if they are going to conduct a prolonged search op they will request a tactical channel from SCC. SCC will then assign a tac channel to use (which is what you want to listen for so you can make the switch too). Usually it will be a set A-Tac for that station, but if somebody is already using their normal A-Tac they will assign them a different channel and it can be a STAR-Tac, C-Tac, M-Aid, or anyother A-tac...............

Hey. thanks for writing that up. very well explained. just need to read up on duplex patch, and switchint. then i should understand a bit more. it's kind of cool. self teaching that is. i buy a scanner for fun. turns into a hobby. then turns into something where i have a new respect for certain things in life. your a police officer right? whats it mean when they say clear the patch? does this mean, make it open available again?

oh, and around 4:30 a.m this morning. i heard on c-tac 2 ( 482.8375 )

first off. it sounded like they sounded. for all units in the hhe operation or hho operation. ??? any idea what they actually said? i have the recording of it

* named off team 1, team 2, team 3, and team 4, team 5, team 6, team 7, and team 8
* supposed to get the green light at - 04:45

"you now have green light to execute your operation. please advise when you are code 4 and if you are containing any potential suspects."

"we are 97 at are location"

"team 3 is 97"

"team 4 is at our location and is containing the primary"

"team 7 is at our location and containing our primary"

would this be swat?

i never heard what area this was in. or what kind of operation this was. any ideas on how to find out?

Duplex patch; If you've listened to LASD, you are aware of the busy tone (beep beep beep, when a field unit is talking). When the duplex patch is active the busy tone gets dropped and you can hear the field units. This is usually only done during emergencies although some field ops divisions do initial coordinations on the patch. When they say they can clear the patch or drop the patch that means going back to normal ops (aka busy tone is reactivated).

The operation you described sounds like a multi location search warrant service
