New Radio System Will Allow Better Communication For Odessa' Saw this story. Anyone have any info on it? Are they going solo like Midland did, or is the, what seems to be, un-utilized, Wide Area Network being abandoned? Or is the network going to convert to Phase II? The impression is...

I am new to this forum and radio coms in general, so please bear with me. I have had this RadioShack PRO-668 for a couple of months, and when I purchased this thing right out of the box I gave it my zip code and was receiving all of the trunking frequencies under the sun. I am also using the...

Hello everyone, I recently purchased a Uniden BCD536HP and have enjoyed getting back into scanning. I have been out of the game during all of the rebanding and P25 conversion, so hopefully I am just overlooking something. As some of you probably know, the 536 has the Home Patrol database that...

Anyone out there in this area? I just purchased a Uniden BCD436HP. I've created a favorites list for this area. So far I don't think I've heard any Boerne PD traffic. Is it dispatched on the same channel as the county? If so, does anyone know the break down of the unit numbers, ie. 8509 or...

As a Staff Member at Clements Scout Ranch and a Communications Officer I'd like to release the radio frequencies just in case anyone would like to listen. Camp Operations - 151.820 (Main Frequency) Side Events - 151.880 (Used for events such as Climbing Tower, Brotherhood, etc.) Emergency -...

Newly scanning this area and MOST of the talk groups in RR are incorrect. This area covers fort bliss and white sands and I am still looking for the Fort Bliss Fire Dept channels. I have been listening for days now and NOTHING! No EMS or WBAMC channels either. MPs, shuttles, and range ops seem...

I am no longer hearing Pasadena PD (Texas) on my scanner on the analog system. I have added the digital talkgroups to my scanner (BCD436HP). These were the same talkgroups listed on this website. Does anyone know what site Pasadena uses or had any luck using different TGID's? Any help would be...

They seemed to have gone quiet. Have not heard anything on their Primary. Am not noticing anything on the Permian Basin linked system. Anyone know if they just encrypted or migrated over to the Permian Basin Linked System as of yet. Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know if there is a simulcast for the encrypted fire frequencies in Laredo?

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up that Balcones Heights PD/FD are both fully transitioned to SA/BC's EDACS ProVoice and cannot be monitored. There was some talk of using the old VHF repeaters for a VHF simulcast but that seems to have fallen through as the dispatchers were having trouble...

I recently picked up a few HT1250s and want to clear-out the existing programming. Unfortunately, I've learned that I have to pay a crazy amount to Motorola or pay a local dealer another crazy amount to have them re-programed. I would interested in the purchase the $300 CPS software, but its...

Does anyone have the DEC & AFS for LE1 and LE2?? I can not seem to remember. Please help...

Hey guys! New to the forums but glad to be here. As a resident of Cedar Park, it bums me out big time that everything is encrypted :( Living just down the street from a fire station and always seeing them go by wondering what's up and where they're going when a mile down the road Austinites...

Sorry for the delay in getting this feed back up. I lost a computer to a power surge and decided to put my feeds on a separate computer. I have rebuilt my system and it is now back up. I'm still playing with the volume, etc. Let me know if you have any feedback. Thanks!

Does anyone know of any maps or websites that show the different police districts ie.. central, south, west and so forth. just moved her and trying to figure out where I should be listening to what.

I just moved to Dallas and have been listening to Dallas FD and PD dispatch. So is the fire dispatch automated because it sounds like a computer and after every dispatch it sounds like she says something about a map then a letter, not sure what that means. also does dallas send an engine and...

I am moving to Dallas and programming my scanner for the area. I was curious why Dallas Police and Fire are still using conventional UHF systems and not digital or trunking. Just seems like a city that big would need more police channels than those that are shown. There is also a conventional...

This is my first post on RadioReference, so I apologize if I post this under the wrong section. I work in El Paso, Tx for the general hospital. In my hospital, we use the US Alert Nova pager to alert the Code Blue/Rapid Response teams of cardiac arrests or incoming traumas brought in by EMS...

Does anyone have any information on HFDs pager tones? RR has them listed as EMS TONE TONE A 1500.0 TONE B 800.0 FIRE TONE TONE A 1000.0 TONE B 1000.0. What frequency are they transmitted on? What exactly do they use these tones to dispatch? Any insight would be appreciated.
