I was scanning through the 800mhz and came across this frequency 859.2875 with a SID as 443Ch in the Ames area, anyone have any idea what it could belong to ?

Rich83, I picked that up last week also---I have no idea who it is. I have one scanner doing an 800MHz. search. Did you happen to hear any voice on it? Mike

Not as yet, I'm not exactly sure why type of system it is so I just put it as Motorola type ll and I have had my scanner on the past couple of days and not heard a peep, Iv thought about playing around with the system types to see if anything pops up so I will give that a whirl today.

Did a quick search on FCC ALS. Comes back to a callsign of WPHG777, transmitter site in Nevada. maybe Alliant is transitioning to Motorola from iDen?
