CT Federal Agency Frequencies

[RESQ766]

Has anybody figured out any of the frequencies for federal agencies in CT? The CT RR database is missing many of them.

Let’s start with your scanner(s), what has ‘your’ scanner logged in your area?

Did you try searching the federal bands and making notes. That’s the best way to do it from your location(s).

Pretty much 99.9% of Federal comms are going to be the big E, I think its against protocol now to not use it. Most offbook stuff is done over signal - even lunch orders.

Doesn’t matter if it’s encrypted.
Scanners can still log the frequency and tone(NAC/CTCSS/DCS/Colorcode,etc) and RadioIDs.

As many agencies continue to make changes to their systems/networks, much of what has been out on the Interwebs is out of date
and your best bet is to spend sometime in SEARCH mode.

138-144, 148-150.8, 162-174, 380-400, 400-420 are the common bands without even suggesting Low Band

AS to those who continue to throw out, don't bother, it is encrypted, DO NOT LISTEN to them, only YOU will be able to make a determination of what is actually available in your specific area.

spend a few weeks, months and then share what you find. However, rule #1 of Federal monitoring is .. and I know might be hard to do ... DO NOT post an active Surv Op, wait for the story to hit the news, then share.

YMMV and the only way to find out is to TRY.
