463.2125 DMR- school buses?

[StoliRaz]

Was searching around yesterday around 430pm stumbled upon this frequency, I think it might be Holbrook public school buses? Heard 3 different drivers saying there was "no children on their bus, bus parked at their home, have a good night"

FCC database shows Holbrook or Framingham public schools as the only 2 schools using that frequency and I'm no where near Framingham.

463.2125 color 9 TG 1226901 DMR is what my scanner displayed.

From Weymouth over the winter this [beam pointed west] was still weak, so I would rule out Holbrook, unless Low Power
Hopefully someone hears a school name or is nearer to get the input and validate it for Framingham

Per a thread on Scan-NE Scan New England - Login, this is used by NRT Van Pool, which operates vans for special needs students in various parts of the state. They operate on a combination of Low Band, UHF DMR frequencies, and the Industrial Communications & Electronics (ICE) 900 Mhz MotoTrbo trunk network.

The licenses for the UHF frequencies are held by Applied Electronics.

Anytime you see the TG 1226901 , it will be the Applied Communications repeater used by NRT Van Pool.
In this case, 463.2125 is used by NRT Van Pool by a repeater in Cumberland, RI. WRAR292
I am getting this loud and clear here in Taunton, along with a strong Cap+ system. (Middleboro Gas and Electric).
This frequency in RI was last identified as being used by Durham Bus Services in 2019.

FYI, this is "Channel 6" and it sounds like it's all special student vans vs normal school buses.
Update: They are operating out of Wrentham.

"We have air-conditioned minivans (7D licensed) with a maximum of 6 passengers, minivans with a maximum of 8 passengers, and a fleet of modified yellow school mini-buses with various seating capacities."

I checked out the unidentified digital systems link posted above on SNE, I'll check out some of those and listen for clues. Perfect time for an "easter egg" hunt 😂

Keep in mind that those UNID's are what folks have submitted, there are still plenty not reported

Yes, I have another one I stumbled upon yesterday- 462.050 TG:17 Color 7

I haven't had time to dig into it yet. I also saw a NXDN come in encrypted very briefly but it was too quick for me to snap a picture of the screen to review the info. I'm sure I'll see it again though. Finding new stuff is fun

462.0500 TG: 17 SL: 1 and TG: 18 SL:2 - still to ID - caught in January

NXDN might have been the adj freq of 462.0625 or .0750 - caught with RAN: 05

How about 461.5125? I get full bar signal of repeater "machine gun" noise but it never does anything. It's an odd one

Soon as you said Weymouth I knew what it was. See I hate when that happens, I have that loaded on my scanner (436hp) but always pay attention to the alpha tag and not the frequency 😔 good catch

I just sent you a message.

That is what I get for just logging and not adding to my notes as I spend 3-4 hrs/day on each freq
almost thru with the 452/453 band
