A recent trip provided me with the opportunity to spend a couple of days in Salt Lake City. I was monitoring the 900 mhz frequencies used by UTA and heard Frontrunner and bus transmissions, however no TRAX calls. Thinking they may have migrated to the UCAN system, I programmed those frequencies, again no TRAX transmissions. Then while riding a TRAX train up front by the operators cab, I heard the familiar "chirping" sound, characteristic of a NEXTEL system. Later on I was able to briefly glance into the cab as an operator was programming a display screen. Attached to the screen was a Motorola microphone.
A review of FCC records shows UTA was issued a number of 800 mhz frequencies in 2009, which are in the same band as those used for NEXTEL communications.
Can anyone provide any additional information?
