What are these Morse codes I keep hearing over the County sheriffs main digital radio frequency? Every now and than i here it. Its morse code for something. A sergeant told me its a digital page to someone. The Sheriff is on a basic NON TRUNKING digital conventional system in are area in Saint Charles. Sometimes and just gos "boooooo "pause" "booooo" for about a minute or even 5-10 mins! and i can't here the regular radio traffic and than it stops and normal conversation is back online. It is NOT A FIRE TONE OR EMS TONE! Its on the main digital conventional sheriff channel. I repeat its not Fire/EMS. Its Morse code and sometimes its makes a short hum after hum after hum, etc, etc, etc. Its sounds really really weird. It does not happen often but Id like to know what it means.
I thought I saw some software online once that you can download to your computer and hook it up to your serial or usb and see what the data is. Can someone educate me on this matter. And if so is there any computer programs that can tell me or show me this information and if not its all good Im just very curious to what the heck it means, but i like to understand it better. I used to think it was a repeater tower just showing that it works correctly, but this sergeant told me its a page of some sort.
If someone could help me out i would appreciate it greatly! Ive been listening to scanners sense i was about 12 years old. Thanks
