Attridge in Ottawa

[mjf]

At least try 452.7375, 460.9875, 461.4625, 462.0375. Those are main ones used elsewhere. Maybe the Ottawa radios have those programmed as well.
452 and 460, 462 are definitely being used around Toronto on NFM. Waiting to see if 461.4625 is still in use.

461.4625 was in use last year for school busses in Mississauga using NXDN. It's quiet right now.

What would the time slot be ? Should I choose Any?

Probably best to have it on ID search to hear other ID as well

So Jason, listen on BearCom/PushPlus for a while and see if it really is them or some other company.

The Tait TM2 only supports Tier 2. Also, every DMR system in Ottawa is Motorola.

I found this on Proscan called radio feed so

I just saw the school bus ID, so I figured I would at least sit wait and see what happens so that why I programmed the trunk system.

I programmed the system. Muxlow gave me some instructions

A little off-topic but since I mentioned it earlier, 461.4625 is still in use for Attridge. I heard some traffic today. Not busy like it used to be. Still NXDN, RAN 1.

Just waiting to hear them now. I have everything right. I have the Control Channel and the signal bars, so that means I am good to go

Best time is when they are returning to the yard after all their drop offs in the afternoon. Listen to street names and see if those mentioned make sense with the Attridge company depot location.

I recognize some voices who use to work for Voyago on the trunk system.

That recognized voice is 534688. Other ID's are 660602 and 66296.

Well if you are monitoring PushPlus or a Motorola system and they in fact are using Tait radios, you won't hear them on there. It's best to program what's listed in the TAFL or run CloseCall.

I did hear them today as I heard the voices before.

 

[Torontoteamone]

I been doing research and apparently the radios work on 1freq trunk DMR so I would just need to put in the sites in one freq trunk

They are only on TAFL for Toronto there no Ottawa one for some odd reason

It was called Fleet analog Repeter

 

[mciupa]

They won't be on the air until Monday. Maybe wait to post more then.

 

[Torontoteamone]

Ok, so I tried something. I programmed each site in to my scanner in 1FT, but I did one freq. in its own site. So is that something that works ?

 

[Torontoteamone]

I just heard 5342162 saying 312 to Base. Now I'm thinking thinking that the bus. Can anyone else confirm that it or does it belong to another company.

 

[Torontoteamone]

I just heard that TG again saying school-run, so can anyone confirm that this is indeed a school bus TG ID ??

You should hear them checking in each morning, say between 7:00 and 8:00. It's usually goes something like, "1234 on the air. Good morning." with 1234 being the bus number. And then you'll hear the cancellations, mentions of school names, etc. Traffic will die down after 9:00 when classes start, and pick up again later in the afternoon for the trips home.
