Coast Guard TRACEN PD is BACK

[jaymatt1978]

\Coast Guard Police is BAck ON 171.3500 with a DPL OF 114. It was always in the database but the repeater was down and the PD was sharing the FD's repeater on 171.23750. Now they have two separate frequencies again

Thoughts for the Repeater input

Good Catch

....BTW...in case anyone else is interested it's in Cape May, NJ; 53 years in NJ you would think I would know that!

Perfect timing. Heading down there tomorrow so I will update my radios. Thanks for posting!

They have two other TRACENs, but Cape May is the only Boot Camp the others have various schools for the enlisted rates.

The other two are TRACEN Yorktown, VA and TRACEN Petaluma, CA.

Never been to Petaluma, but have heard the food there is very good with the Culinary Specialist school being there and Fridays are seafood day. Plus every walk is up a hill.

Cape May in the spring of 1993.
If I recall, antennas were probably on top of the water tower. The base isn't that big, so simplex wouldn't be out of the question. I could be wrong, I was busy with some guy in a funny hat yelling at me.

I never went to Petaluma, but I've driven by it a few times. Two Rock Road, if I recall correctly.

Yes but if I were talking about TRACEN Yorktown or Petaluma I would have posted this on that state's boards

You're correct. The antennas are on the water tower. At least they were prior to the covid shutdown.
