Petco

[philacop]

Does anyone know what the Petco stores frequencies may be ?? I’m in SE Pennsylvania area and recently seen employees wearing small black non motorola radios with short black stubby antenna and headset?? I checked the 457.925 ect ones and had not heard anything as of yet. They are listed ion RR.
They were not wearing before at this store in Delco.
Thanks!!

Have you tried the big 4? (467.850, 467.875, 467.900 & 467.925?) How did you conclude they aren't Motorola? They could be 900mhz+ frequency-hopping "spread spectrum" radios as seems to be the current trend with retailers (Giant, Walmart, others) and if this is the case, no scanner is able to pick them up

They didn't look like this by chance did they?

No
I seen one lying on the counter, It look Ike the radio had a tag on the front that may have started with a B?? Not a Balfeng ..
Also Not a freq hopping radio.
I have a couple of those radios in the picture.
Have been monitoring those big 4 and nothing yet. Many others though. I’m only 1 mile away using a discone and Icom r8600. Maybe missed so far ??
Thanks again

Thanks again!
ALSO have the licensed stuff in the scan list!
Maybe they using a rouge frequency????
If I get over there will have to bring the old sds and put on the close call and see if anything talking wise pops up !!
Just thought maybe someone had something Peco . That was the first time I seen them with radios and should be able to hear being less than a mile away.

Are you sure they aren't using FRS or MURS?
