453.625 pl 110.9 ....broadcast over speaker on the bus
453.625 pl 123.0 .... broadcast over the drivers handset only , not over speaker on bus
453.725 dpl.223 ......supervisors freq. ....they also use nextel quite frequently !
452.750 pl.123.0......bus maintainance freq. mechanics
i believe there might be a few more , they have state vehicles (ford tauruses) that also have motorola spectras (same as the bus radios) in them , they are upper management and might have a few freqs of thier own . not sure on it , but ill use my close call over the next few weeks and see what i can pick up. im in that area of ct.transit quite a bit .

also , fed. protective service i believe is in the 417.xxx area , there digital , and dispatch is in the clear , but mobiles and portables are encrypted.

so digital encrypted?....that sucks....

only the mobiles and portables , you can still here dispatch in the clear . last i listened which was about 7-8 months ago.

actually , now that i think of it , a couple of weeks ago i ate at ASHLEYS restaurant , that is right up the street on main street from the federal court house , and i did have my close call on while i was getting breakfast , and im looking through my 396 right now and still have some hits saved , you might wanna try 417.2 , and i also had a hit of 417.1875 dont know how accurate the close call is , or if was federal protective service , but the hits were in the vacinity of the fed. court house and in the 417. range. so maybe thats them . i work in hartford , now im curious , maybe ill go downtown on my lunch break and sit close to the court house , and see what hits i get and do some monitoring.

ok , last week , thursday or friday , i sat outside the federal court house on main st. and listened to 417.2 , and it still is as i posted , mobiles and portables are encrypted , dispatch still in the clear. funny thing , i was eating breakfast when a federal protective officer approached my car and simply asked (in the pouring rain with his umbrella in hand) how you doing sir, i said , im just grabbing a quick bite to eat , he said no problem sir , have a nice day , and walked away......this with my mounted 785-D- in plain site and my 396-T sitting in my cup holder....LOL....I really was so tempted to explain to him my real mission and if hed be kind enough to just key his mic for a quick second to get the hit on close call , but thought better of it , before he dragged me out of my car thinking i might have alterior motives....so i told him have a nice day , and he was on his way....so thats the scoop with FPS , I didnt check any of the other freqs that i had hits on in the 417.xxx range , but thats for another day ...
