Goosetown system

[mike6508]

I am looking for some New York frequencies that are under a Goosetown system. Is it possible to find these frequencies ? If it is possible, how would i go about locating them ? THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR HELP !!

The search function is your friend. There have already been a few threads in this section about the Goosetown LTR Passport system. If you're trying to listen to the county and Clarkstown DPWs, which I assume you are based on your asking about the Thruway plows last night, it's not going to happen. No scanner can trunk-track an LTR Passport system, so the best you can do is input all the frequencies as conventional NFM channels and hope to follow the conversations. Except that the transmitters usually send out short bursts every second or two, which will lock the scanner up on one frequency more often than not.

Like mentioned preeviosly, most talkgroups are Passport vs. LTR and some sites are now Passport only, so the only may to monitor the system is by adding the frequencies from the site you want to hear conventionally and setting the delay to zero. This was taken off the NF2G website:

You should have just posted a link to the document. Then people could actually read the information in clear, tabular format as I wrote it.

Goosetown Communications LTR

[orangEMT246]

This may be a dumb question. I understand that a "Passport" system can't be scanned by any scanner on the market now. I would need some computer software to follow the conservation. But Dave's site says that some sites are a dual LTR and Passport system with different rows of channel numbers. One row says LTR LCN with channel numbers, and another says Passport LCN with a different set of channel numbers. An example would be the Ellenville Tower. The second table down from the top. My question, if I plug in just the LTR LCN channels and frequencies into a LTR scanner, would my scanner be able to follow the conservation? I work for Regional EMS and we use the system. Would be nice to hear my co-workers on my days off. Also don't understand what the "neighbor" frequencies are. Thanks.

Dave...for some reason I couln't get it to link back to that page on your site...only back to the homepage. That is why I did a copy/paste. But, thanks for the direct link.

You could follow any plain LTR conversations. If Regional EMS is using PassPort, then you won't hear anything in LTR mode.

Hmm. Another server oddity, I guess. I don't have any linking restrictions set anywhere that I know about.

Regional and Mobile Life are on the Passport system, not the LTR system. In fact, there are practically no active users on the LTR system, the Passport is used almost exclusively. As was previously stated, you cannot track the Passport with a scanner, so you'd have to listen to the frequencies in conventional mode. If you're intent on doing so, program them all with no delay, but you'll probably get sick of hearing the bursts that are transmitted every second or two on each frequency in short order and will abandon the idea of trying to listen to the system that way.

It's not the server, it's the fact that you use frames in FrontPage for the site design. The URL in the browser address bar never changes when using frames, which is why it's a pain to link to specific pages. You'd have to right click on the page link, then copy/paste it to get the direct link. You could also use the "Show this frame only" right-click menu in Firefox to break the frames and get the direct links in the browser address bar. Either way, frames are old and a pain in the butt. The javascript used to load each county doesn't help matters either, as it hides the URL from the links.

That is what I thought. Wishful thinking on my part. We use Motorola CDM1550 mobile radios as well as HT1250 LS+ portable radios. As they power up, they say "Passport", then "Searching", as they find the closest tower. Just hoping to monitor on the LTR side. Thanks for the reply.

Well, if the website generated more than the typical $10 per year, on average, in revenue, I might hire someone to program it up with MySQL and Perl and stuff. Since that is not feasible, I do what works. (By more, I mean several times what people have donated so far. But "free" means free, so I'm not complaining.)

Dave, although my post may've sounded otherwise, I was not giving you flak over the design of your site. I fully understand you have done the best you can with the available tools and time, believe me. In fact, I actually like that your site is so clean and simple, it makes it very easy to navigate. Actually the only one suggestion I would have would be to move the Trunking section up to a top level. In fact, it might make more sense to move Statewide up as well. Why not have them both as top level links on the navbar for easier access? I've been to your site hundreds of times, and even I sometimes forget I have to drill down a few layers to get to some of that stuff.
