cobourg trunk system

[randyf]

i would like to program cobourg trunking , i went into database found the frequencys but ido not see the custom frequency table listed, or is it needed. it is motorola type two smartnet

 

[mikewazowski]

Isn't Cobourg an 800Mhz system? If so, it doesn't need a custom frequency table.

 

[randyf]

cobourg trunking

after a wee bit of help from mike i put in the frequencys last night , then tonight i rushed through supper i even did the dishes to speed things up lol then drove down to cobourg to see if it would work , nothing but silence so i pull into the local tims to check my settings , i found the scanner was detecting the tower site as the strength bar was going full tilt , this is with four opp cars sitting in the lot too , i finnaly figured it out it was on control channel only so i clicked it off and it worked !!! 45 minutes down to cobourg 5 minutes there to find it works then back home again my wife thinks i am crazy

Cobourg also simulcasts on 142.485 with voice inversion. So for those who live farther out. This frequency can be heard farther, usually more so then the Cobourg City Trunking system. If your not able to get a lock on the control channel from where u are

so can the bc396t do anything about the inversion , sometimes i can make out what is being said if i listen very close to what they are saying

You'll need to feed the audio out to a computer running the Inversion program.

i see i had that once in my computer ages ago , i downloaded it from some place , i think cobourg has turned the power down as i can not get them anymore in campbellford , they did at one time come in very strong

 

[jeffrogerson]

Same goes here in Belleville.
Can't hear squat out of Cobourg.

nope,

The north repeater is now low power and directional. South-west lobe is the strongest towards the midway point between Port Hope and Cobourg.

 

[randyf]

must of dropped to low power after opp took over the north again ,

 

[paradoxnt]

ok, can anyone tell me about the peterborough radio system can it be scanned

nope,

is that because they are encrypted?

I am actually going on a fishing trip to Peterborough Next weekend, and would be willing to try to scan it on the Pro 96 if it was possible.

 

[exkalibur]

Oh, you can scan Peterborough all you want, they're an EDACS system.

However, you won't be happy with what you get. It's an encrypted system. However, the encryption has been known to be turned off in the past.

peterborough city p.s

yes i have heard voice on peterborough channels before , i see some frequencys are marked analog and some digital in the data base so i thought i could scan some of it
