Last month when we had all those thunderstorms one of them took down United Power's service to a large number of their customers. As usual I called in our `outage' and then turned on the bank I have in one of my portable scanners to try and figure out what had happened and how long we'd be without power.
I stayed up until power was restored and during the whole time I got narry a peep out of my scanner(S). (I had first figured that maybe the first one I'd turned on to listen might have, somehow, corrupted and I turned another one on to check.)
Anyway... I finally got around to doing some other checking and it appears that possibly United Power has possibly upgraded their radios and aren't LTR anymore. However, I am not quite sure of just what type that controller `BRAAAP!' is or even if it actually is them I am hearing.
Could it be possible for someone who is familiar with the newer trunking systems to load up the United Power freqs and take a listen?
