Repeater Question

Or you could just look at the database entry for Montgomery County.
http://www.radioreference.com/modules.php?name=RR&ctid=1853
Listed under the Police Countywide Dispatch repeater entry is 154.785, which is the "output" of the repeater and 156.090, which is the "input" to the repeater. If you plug 156.090 into your scanner you might pick up the mobile units calling into the repeater if they're close enough to you.

I know that already.
Fellow scanner, maybe you did not read my post clearly enough. I already said that I know that 154.785 is the repeater frequency for Montgomery County Sheriff. What I was getting at was if you monitor a frequency and you hear both ends of the conversation on that 1 frequency is that then the repeater frequency. God I wish people would read my original post more clearly before they answer.
AS STATED IN MY ORIGINAL POST I ALREADY KNOW THAT 154.785 MHZ IS THE MONTGOMERY COUNTY SHERIFF'S REPEATER FREQUENCY, AND YES I KNOW THAT 156.090 MHZ IS THE INPUT FREQUENCY, I WAS JUST USING THAT AS AN EXAMPLE.

Whoa...calm down fella, your original post was not as clear as you think it was. My reading comprehension skills are just fine, thanks. 
The answer to your question is NO, just because you are hearing both sides of the conversation, that does NOT mean you are automatically listening to the output channel of the repeater. As an example, if you are right near both units that are transmitting you might pick them both up very clearly if you are monitoring the input frequency.
Does THAT answer your question?

Incidentally...I was trying to help you out, so there was no need for your huffy puffy attitude when responding to me. I see you made a thread not too long ago apologizing to other members of this board for some things you said that you regretted? Maybe you ought to revisit that thread and remind yourself to check your attitude at the door before you log on here.

Please read
Please read the sentence near the beginning that goes something like this.
Now I know that 154.785 for the Montgomery County Sheriff is the repeater frequency. Take a look it begins near the end of line #2.
And as always as I like to say around the holiday's. You have yourself a very safe and happy holiday season.
And thank you for your help, Honest I was not trying to be rude to you.
By the way 154.785 is the MCSO Repeater which I only monitor for the MCSO. I do not monitor the input frequency of 156.090 because if you listen to 156.090 and then move to 154.785 the repeater you will hear the same thing on 154.785 that you are hearing on 156.090. 154.785 works great to hear both sides of the conversation.

You might want to read post # 6
Res6cue_dot_com you might want to read post # 6 before you go making attacking remarks in your posts as well.

What's your problem
What is your problem, it is not my fault that no one bothered to read the sentence that says Now I already know that 154.785 is the repeater frequency for the Montgomery County Sheriff. So why should someone answer back with or you can just check the database for the Montgomery County Sheriff here on radioreference regarding something that I already knew about. I was simply using the MCSO as an example of a repeater set-up that I had already known about.
Now once again to you and your family have a very safe and happy holiday season, and in no way was I ever trying to be an ASS.

no trying needed !
The thing I don't think he understands is that, in a simplex system with high powered mobiles, it could sound just as good or better than a repeater system, especially if you're in the middle of all the action in a relatively small area.
So the question he asks is way too oversimplified to give a direct answer to, if I even understand what he's trying to ask to begin with. Too many factors involved. I've heard repeaters that sound horrible, and when the field unit calls direct on the talkaround channel, it comes in crystal clear. Likewise, there are many simplex systems that you won't ever hear the field units because they're too far away. It all depends.
So once again, the answer I give is this: Just because you're listening to a frequency and you can hear all the action, that does NOT mean you're listening to the repeater output channel. You might not be listening to a repeater at ALL!
That's all I got. I tried helping this guy out, he comes back with some major attitude, then his "apology" to me is still laced with veiled insults. His post history tells the story here, I just didn't think to check it before I tried to help him. Shouldn't have to, but I guess I will from now on, as I'm sick of dealing with guys like this and nec208. I come on here as someone who has many years of emergency services background and thus has a lot of knowledge to share with the scanning community. But, if guys who ask questions are going to turn around and give guys like me an attitude, then it's not worth it. Hey, I already know this stuff, I'm the one out there in the field you guys are listening to!

My original question
Fellow scanners. I'am just wondering where in my original question did I specifically ask for the frequencies for the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, I DID NOT. I said, Now I already know that 154.785 is the repeater frequency for the Montgomery County Sheriff, it is all right there beginning at the end of line #2. So why would I want someone to respond back with or you can just check under the database for the Montgomery County Sheriff here on radioreference. Just wondering what part of Now I already know that 154.785 is the repeater frequency for the Montgomery County Sheriff is so hard to understand.

Repeater?
I can read. I comprehend what I read. But, this was confusing.
Even after someone answered the question, the thread kept going. NOT talking about his original question (which is what was confusing) but about what he DIDN'T ask...Huh?

Moral of the story
Moral of the story is that each and every person that responded to my question with their wise ass remarks can all kiss my english speaking ass. You all have no clue about scanning you jerk off's.

WOW, someone might want to look into an anger management program!
Here's my reply to you regarding "not having a clue about scanning": If by that you mean I don't have a clue what it's like to sit home LISTENING to the action, because for the past two decades I've actually been PART of the action you listen to...then I must admit, you're right! :lol:
But seriously, I've forgotten more about this stuff than you'll ever know, I guarantee that. :roll:
