Can anyone suggest who/what the mobiles on 158.5650 in NB are?

[kd1sq]

I'm in Maine about a mile from Grand Falls across the border in NB.

Hearing a bunch of NFM mobiles chatting amongst themselves on simplex. Very informal, no callsigns, and, of course, they're talking one of the Acadian French dialects so common around here.

Any suggestion? Or translators? I have an MP3 I could provide.

My school taught Parisian French, this variant drives me nuts.

TIA!

Throwing this out as speculation.

Officially, the Regional Services in Chaleur like roads, waste collection would be on that frequency. But, I will defer to a local to help you.

This is what the sole license for NB shows (Chaleur.) Brush up on that Acadian, tabernac !

If you can DM me some recordings, I should be able to tell you.

I'll see about getting some - five minutes do?

And thanks for offering.

 

[ty12122]

Sure, that should be enough for me to tell you what they're going on about, maybe not an exact user though.

Hi!

I have five minutes of them now, it's just under 6MB in size. How would you like it sent?

Upload them to WeTransfer, and post the link here. Or a Dropbox/GoogleDrive folder or something like that would work too.

Try this - let me know how it goes!

Tough to make out the entire convo, but definitely some log truck drivers having a "CB conversation" about a bunch of nothing and asking if they can hear each other

 

[kd1sq]

Ah, so could be Chaleur, could be almost anyone else, eh? Oh well.

And thank you.

I highly doubt that it's Chaleur RSC (Solid Waste). This sounds much more like two loggers who bought Baofengs or a pair of mobiles on eBay that were on some random frequency and put them in their trucks.

 

[kd1sq]

Quite probably - I find that there's all kinds of stuff that's going on in the area that's unlicensed. Oh well. And, again, thanks for trying.
