Just curious, maybe I'm still sleeping, but what is BNL?

Good point. Not everyone understand acronyms right away.

I might have jumped the gun on updating this listing.
Marcy submitted 164.350 as the input to 164.250. This seems too close to be an input, but I'm not all too familiar with how Federal spaces their input/output. But to me, this is close. The RRDB is showing 164.250 as FM and the input of 164.350 is P25, based on the fact that there is a NAC being decoded.

My question now is, maybe 164.250 is an output in NFM and 164.350 is an output in P25? Is there someone in the Brookhaven area that could monitor both frequencies? I'm a bit too far west to hear. @dave3825 or @pro106import , I think either one of you might be close enough to hear BNL.

Hi Phil,
164.350 is the input to 171.8125 NAC 173
164.7625 is the input to 170.600 NAC 192
167.6875 is the input to 171.975 NAC 141

Thank you Bob.

It looks like 171.8125 and 170.600 are missing from the RRDB. Can you open a submission for both and I'll add them in?
I added the input to 171.975 per your notes and removed the input of 164.35 from 164.25.

Great find and confirmation - been looking for that for years.

So much of the DoE is under reported/shared

There is also for BNL 173.975 tone 127.3 I copy engineers on there
every morning briefly..just do not know what dept. in BNL it is?
but it,s not Fire..so there maybe more to add to that DB if I can
find out the dept? to be more specific....they are very brief
though ...73,s Marcy

How close does one need to be to hear an input freq in the fed bands? I was picking up chatter in the clear that was either engineers or maintenance on 167.825 127.3. I was getting zero bars but it was clear enough to hear the conversation. Talking about pulsing drop out tests in safe and control with contacts changing. And speaking of lasers. Then asked someone to call him at Operations, extension 7400.

That is their "main control" engineering repeater out freq. Not sure what the input is. I never searched for it, but I am sure I would hear the units on the input if using a mobile. If they are using a portable, probably not. Maybe the input is that 173.975 that Marcy is hearing. Same PL tone. IDK.

I did not see it listed in the db that's why I was asking if it could be an input to maybe one of the other freqs. I am a little far for daily reception and received it while a few miles East of my location.

Copy that Dave. Yes I guess I am the lucky one where I can see the BNL buildings from out my kitchen window.

 

[w2lie]

Please keep submitting what you can find (and confirm) and I'll keep adding them to the DB. This thread certainly helped add more frequencies to the BNL listing and also helped clear up some alpha tags, descriptions, and service tags that needed updating.

Great job by all. It's nice when the community comes together and you find others working together and sharing info for a common goal. This is what makes scanning fun!

There is also a repeater on 167.825 with the same 127.3 tone. Also sounds like engineers. I can confirm that the 173.975 is NOT the input for either the 167.825 or 167.875 repeaters.
Here is what I have in my BNL scan list.
