900 MHz Trunked Systems around Montgomery County

[radioscan]

All,

Just got back from the 2005 Winter SWL Fest in Kulpsville.
While I was there scanning and searching with my Pro-96 I came across
a couple of unidentified 900 MHz trunked systems. I only tracked them
for a short time using the control frequency. Using FCC data the CC from
system 4919 shows up as Allentown in Somerset County. Unless my
geography is severely lacking Allentown should be in Lehigh County. Also
seeing how that Somerset County is on the other side of the state. I going
to say this is another license blunder and go with Allentown being in Lehigh County
since I was in Montgomery County. So if anyone in the area may be
up to it, give these two systems a try and see if we can collect more information on them.

These show up in the FCC database as multiple licenses, but they are trunked business systems.
Here is the information I was able to collect:

System ID: 3A27
Motorola Type II 3600

935.6375
935.6625
937.1375
937.2125 *
938.1875

=================

System ID: 4919
CT: 138.6
Motorola Type II 3600

935.1625
936.2250*
937.6500
937.6750
937.7375
938.1750
938.7000
938.7500
939.2250
939.2500
939.6500
939.7250


* - Control Channel

Good Luck,
Mark

Hello,

I looked at my trunker logs and found I received 3A27 in March 2004 with just two control channels logged. 4919 was received in March 2003 again with just two control channels logged.

I can get other systems in Chester Co from Kulpsville so likely 3A27 is:
KNNQ380 Metropolitan Communications (plus other user licenses)
Bacton Hill, Chester Co, PA
935.6375 935.6625 937.1375 937.2125 938.1875

I think you are correct about the wrong county as Easton is in Eastern PA near Allentown.
WPQC832 Easton Area School District Easton PA (plus other user licenses)
933 East Rock Road, Allentown, PA
935.1625 936.2250 937.6500 937.6750 937.7375 938.1750 938.7000 938.7500 939.2250 939.2500 939.6500 939.72500

The only communications company like name is licensed for some of the channels as:
WPTG486 Tu-Way Mobile Commuications
933 East Rock Road, Allentown, Lehigh Co, PA
935.1625
