Where are you hearing e-tones at? I have been monitoring and all I am getting is the normal analog traffic on the Gold site on my Pro-95.

Ok??? The only "LE" on the Gold site would be BCSO... and all I ever hear out of them is the occasional traffic on "Open" channels/ hence analog...and the occasional data burst that creeps thru for e-tones, but no voice traffic, as the digital bleeds thru, same as SAFD dispatch tone for EMS responses, that single tone, 1000hz signal bleeds thru, but no voice traffic follows.....

Metro Traffic chopper was talking about how they could see welding crews working on one of the tracks - sparks for like 20 feet (at least from what Metro could see...)

have no idea where or why they were welding...could have been normal maintenance...

They were busy chopping up rail cars Sunday, down at Presa/Roosevelt.

If that is the same thing Metro helo saw. Sparks from the torches were shooting up pretty high. Can send pictures if you wanna see 'em.
