A high band gain antenna, maybe?The antenna was significantly longer than the other two. It could be a CB since the car is a traffic car, or it looked like possibly a low band antenna, but the only agencies in Orange County using loow band are fire departments, and they are changing to UHF.
Not to get off topic, but that is not correct. Fireground ops are moving to UHF, but OC911 remains on low band. Numerous depts have opted to install UHF <> low band links (aka crossband repeaters), but those transmissions are still taking place on low band (46.16, 45.78, etc.) as well the countywide LZ frequencies remains 46.40.but the only agencies in Orange County using loow band are fire departments, and they are changing to UHF.
The ones nearest the driver in my area are the 800mhz cross band repeater antenna. They do look like cell phone antennas thoughI bet the oddball is the one nearest the driver, probably for a cellphone.
You might want to tell that to car F15 using LID 4492. Just sayin'....RadioComm said:There are no NYCOMCO EDACS 800 equipment in the cars beginning with "F".
