DOJ Interop

[doctordave]

Worth making mention of this topic again....as the RR wiki now cites Baltimore as one of the participating cities. Not a bad idea to keep the several, known freqs handy - it's very possible that Balt is assigned to use one of them. Sounds like Philly & NYC routinely conduct roll calls (similar to PMARS)...if Balt is up and running, we're likely to catch the same.

.....BINGO! See the below link & scroll to the Baltimore page....looks like there already is a designated Balt freq & the repeater is up - we just need to find the frequency:

Copied some traffic on 171.4375 with DCS 023 a few minutes ago. Non-specific talk about someone possibly being shot. Unusal squelch code for anything Federal. Maybe something a bit more telling will come across.

....some additional talk about certain towers being active. Not really sure whom I'm monitoring. This caught my interest, because the freq is one of the known DOJ interop assignments and is actually primary for Philly.

Brief and very clear transmissions tonight at about 9:15 regarding whether "all towers" were active. Same freq and same DCS 023. That was it. Has anyone else copied activity on this freq?
