    Figured Out Why I Can't Hear The Planes

    It is very common here in Hawaii where HCF center may have one controller covering 3 or 4 sectors at night when there is little traffic. So that controller will transmit on multiple frequencies covering those sectors. But obviously the aircraft will only be transmitting on one frequency for...

    End of Public Access to Scanner Access of Public Safety Freqs

    Some of the comments in that article seem a little odd to me. It says that all someone needs to listen to Kauai PD is low cost hardware or a phone app. And the Councilmember says she “knows a lot of people in the community” and is surprised at how people can currently listen in easily...

    Broadcastify Raspberry Pi Feed Appliance Image v1.0 (BETA)

    I don’t think the shell itself has anything for RTL_Airband. I followed the steps in the below page and setup the service to start automatically. Seems to be working ok. https://wiki.radioreference.com/index.php/Broadcastify_Raspberry_Pi_Image#RTLSDR-Airband_Configuration

    Broadcastify Raspberry Pi Feed Appliance Image v1.0 (BETA)

    Sorry if this was answered already... if a new version of Trunk Recorder is released, does this include a script to update?

    County of Maui P25 System

    Getting strong signal from site “004” on my G5 while outdoors. Hearing TG’s 5130 and 5140 so far.

    County of Maui P25 System

    I haven’t checked in a while, but I was able to get Site 004 pretty strong in Honokaa. I no longer have my 700/800 yagi setup, so not sure what is the state of things now. I remember hearing several several radios with encryption turned on some of the TG’s. That’s got me thinking, I may enter...

    Broadcastify Raspberry Pi Feed Appliance Image v1.0 (BETA)

    One minor note... in the appliance shell script, looks like the restart_service function for Trunk Recorder is executing systemctl stop command instead of systemctl restart command. Not a big deal, but just thought I'd pass it along.

    Broadcastify Raspberry Pi Feed Appliance Image v1.0 (BETA)

    Apologies is this was already asked and answered, is it advisable (or not) to do a sudo apt-get upgrade on the image to pull down the latest OS updates? Or is it best to leave it alone? I just flashed the latest image and I see there are a lot of updates to install, but I don’t want to mess...

    Hawaii County - site 10 Haleakala

    Yeah, I wish they would keep the dispatch TG separate instead of always patching it with the district TG. My G5 doesn’t distinguish between the two either, so makes it impossible if I wanted to setup alerting on only dispatch calls.

    Hawaii County - site 10 Haleakala

    Thanks for the details! Yeah, I figured only a few Kohala TG’s would be affiliated but it was a mystery as to why the radios were not triggering the site all the time. That makes sense what you said and would explain it. It definitely seems to be a strong site and I’m sure blankets North Kohala...

    Hawaii County - site 10 Haleakala

    So, it's been a little over a year since this site went on-line and it still does not appear to be a full time site. Control channel is active on 154.445. There are days when I consistently hear HFD Kohala TG 6503 and HFD Dispatch 6505, but then it will go silent for a day or so. I also...

    BCD325P2/BCD996P2: Lockout of patched TG

    I guess that is essentially what I'm trying to do, but since 6505 appears to be patched to 6503, even if I remove 6505 from the programming file or lock it out, the dispatch calls are still coming through on 6503. Ideally, I only want to hear dedicated traffic on 6503 on the 996P2. Not a huge...

    BCD325P2/BCD996P2: Lockout of patched TG

    Pretty sure it is a patch. If I happen to have SDRTrunk or Unitrunker or DSDPlus running, it is being identified as a patched call. Also, on the ProScan logging screen (which is connected to my 996P2) it shows the dispatch TG (6505) in the Talk Group ID column, but the channel name of the tac...

    BCD325P2/BCD996P2: Lockout of patched TG

    This may not make sense, but hoping someone may have run into this before. The Fire/EMS department on my local P25 system will patch the dispatch TG (6505) and the tac TG (6503) together when they are dispatching a call. This is kind of a pain, because on my BCD996P2 I would like to lock out the...

    SDRTrunk SDRTrunk Version 0.5.0 Alpha 1 - Broadcastify Calls Support

    I am currently uploading using Trunk Recorder. If I wanted to test out sending from SDRTrunk (with the idea of possible migrating over), do I need a separate API key and System ID that is setup to accept calls from SDRTrunk? Or will my existing key and ID work?

    Problems with DSD+ Fast Lane

    I think the email from December would have been version 2.228. My download link for that version is no longer valid. I ran into a situation where I hadn’t used the program in a while and the latest version I had was 2.212. I recently wanted to get my files up to date but the download links had...

    Announcing Broadcastify Calls Developer Incentives

    Quick question, when I setup my trunk recorder feed last week, I used the instructions where the encoding and upload was all in a script using ffmpeg, etc. It looks like the instructions in the link above now say to put the API key and server directly into the config.json and it will use that...

    Announcing Broadcastify Calls Developer Incentives

    I believe Trunk Recorder does not record encrypted TG's by default. I checked my setup and the logs show "ENCRYPTED: Not Recorded:" and they are not being uploaded to Calls.
