Atlantic City System Question

[Steveradio]

I have the following frequencies from the database and other resources. 853.3625, 856.7625, 857.7625, 858.7625, 859.7625, 860.4375, 860.7625

Last time down realized that frequencies were missing, We just went down yesterday and could not get the system to Trunk.

I know police are digitial and would not pick them up except for data bursts, that did not even pick-up. Can someone forward me the complete list.

Also who is now using the old ACPD Frequency of 155.1300 PL118.8?


Thanks For your help
Steve

Steve,
I was just there in early Feb. and everything was still working fine. I visit there every 2-3 months or so and have a Pro-96 and it trunks fine using the Radioreference lineup. Do you hear the control channel on one of the frequencies that you have programmed in there? If so, make sure you are in the Motorola type II mode. What is the radio you are using? Haven't heard anything on the old freq. but the old UHF freq (460.425 I think) still has something on it. Here is the freqs I have in there and the talkgroups:

There is a frequency that brought back some memories from being a kid. Tredyffrin Twp, Chester County, PA used to use that same channel (pre-scanner PL days) and on good nights you could sit and listen to ACPD all night long.

Wow, I only remember Atlantic City going back to their 460 systems. One night I was listening to Union City and heard strange stuff coming through their repeater on 460.425. Turns out AC was co-channel and even used the same PL. There was a band opening and AC cars were keying Union City's repeater.

Is Tredyffrin on the Chesco MultiNet system now?

Yes - every PD/FD/EMS agency except for West Chester PD operates on the county's MultiNet system.

FWIW, the only police departments that maintain their own side channels in Chester County are Downingtown, Uwchlan, and West Goshen. Many of the other departments that used to have their own private VHF or low band channels use a TRS TG.

In getting back on topic, I've heard what sounds like some South Jersey (possibly Atlantic and Cape May Counties) agencies showing up on the old Philadelphia PD and FD channels. If I can get a list together, perhaps someone down the shore can confirm...

 

[Steveradio]

I won't get down now for awhile. But don't recall picking up the controller?

We stayed in August and picked up the system fine too.

Yup, 155.1300 was clear monitoring during skip season for ACPD. That would be my primary monitoring frequency during the season.

Now the Wildwoods PD comes in pretty good, however Lancaster cuts in from time to time.

155.6400 North Wildwood PD


154.9650 Wildwood PD

Thanks for the help.. Maybe the system was acting up on Saturday?

155.13 ACPD "Traffic".

 

[blah546]

155.13 ACPD "Traffic".

They still use that?

 

[Joseph11]

Yes. I can hear it up in Beachwood sometimes.

 

[jcardani]

Traffic = Traffic Control, Parking Enforcement and Tow Squad.

 

[elloco3034]

Traffic = Traffic Control, Parking Enforcement and Tow Squad.

yup they use it for calling hooks in

Is the ACPD Trunked system completely on APCO-25 now? In the database, they seem to be in the 900 MHz range.

 

[Analogrules]

Correction; some of the casino security operations are in the 900 MHz range. ACPD has a system in the 800 MHz range (as someone posted above). I'm just wondering if all of this is in APCO-25 mode now or can I still pick up some activity in this frequency range with an analog scanner?

 

[PM08203]

As far as I know the AC system is APCO25 w/PD being digital and FD & BP analog.
