I have a one channel model and for some reason, I am picking up the neighboring fire department who is on a completely different frequency than us. What would be causing this?

To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:
Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.
If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.
To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.
The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.
For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).
This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

Minitors are not PL protected on receive. Are you sure they are on a completely different frequency?

Either you pager is programmed with the wrong frequency or your neighbors share the frequency.

Our frequency is 154.010 and it picks up and activates correctly. The programming shows this frequency. The neighbors are on 154.235 and it picks them up clearly as well. They are on a repeater and this frequency doesn't show at all in the programming.

We only have one and I have had them double check twice. It's just my pager with the issue.
Are your neighbors using simplex for paging and perhaps the your freq is the rx side of their repeater?
