    CREST/HRO in Greater Victoria - Encryption Update

    Yeah I remember the sting clearly over here in ECOMM land. It seems like forever ago, but we lost everything as soon as they migrated from EDACS to the new Phase 2 system with encryption right off the bat.

    Edmonton Amateur Ham DMR repeaters

    Perhaps @kayn1n32008 can comment further. They announced the original rollout of VE6VPR as the first Alberta DMR ham repeater back in 2014. https://forums.radioreference.com/threads/albertas-first-amateur-dmr-repeater.290622/

    Abbotsford not DE?

    No, it's DE. I processed the submission but the DB didn't apply the bulk change to that talkgroup group. I have fixed it.

    BC Transit

    If they aren't in the TAFL under their own license then they are likely subscribed to a local radio shops radio system. For example, TAFL search 'Omega Communications'. They have a bunch of VHF, UHF and 800 repeaters scattered throughout the valley that are likely rented out to companies in...

    Further to mciupa's response, there are couple of great tools for finding frequencies yourself. These two are my go to; https://tafl.mckie.ca/ and https://tafl.jonathanmorgan.net/

    TransLink switches over to E-COMM

    Not sure what you mean by pressure, but they are welcoming more users to pay for the system from what I understand. Adding more capacity is not very difficult, so I don't see what the issue is. It is unfortunate to see yet another organization unnecessarily migrate over with 100% encryption...

    Guide to LADD channels

    For the actual licensed users of the LADD channels, their license actually shows which geographical areas which LADD channels are permitted. For example, here in BC, LADD 1 is permitted pretty much anywhere north of Nanaimo and outside the Lower Mainland. At least for BC, all of this is...

    Hullo Ferries frequencies

    According to the TAFL, all they appear to have is a single simplex loading/shipboard frequency for portable radios. Their license also appears to indicate that they may be using DMR. See here; https://tafl.mckie.ca/?detail=0002136148&prov=BC Licensee Name VIFC LIMITED PARTNERSHIP Licensee...

    BCAS/BCEHS conv analog radio usage

    This is due to the nature of linking of repeaters and how many "dispatch" areas a particular dispatch desk is covering. When the dispatcher keys down they are bringing up two, three or more different repeater "networks" at a time. While the dispatcher can be heard on all of them, the mobile...

    Wireshark plugin for DMR or NXDN?

    It is a reasonable question. I use Wireshark fairly often in my day job. There have been a number of occasions over the years where I wish there was a Wireshark dissector for analyzing and diagnosing issues with a DMR system. But as far as I know there isn't one.

    British Columbia unconfirmed Freq/Tg

    Just had one of my remote SDR's parked on the City of Richmond system again this afternoon. Looks like it's operational, though idle as usual. I watched the rest channel hop a few times between the frequencies on their license so it is definitely Richmond. I believe they are using RAS. Pretty...

    British Columbia unconfirmed Freq/Tg

    Late to the party but I was regularly picking up the rest channel for this system as recent as two weeks ago. I was the one who originally added it to RRDB and BC_Scan is correct, it is a total enigma. Their licenses are odd and from what I have been told this system may only be used for...

    So radio reference is affiliated with Broadcastify. Broadcastify has an app. When I go to Capital region in Broadcastify, no such feeds show up. If you are referring to another app, then that would have nothing to do with this web site or broadcastify. As you can see here there is only one...
