Encrypted 464.475 in the OC

[Randyk4661]

I received a DMR close call hit on this frequency in the area of MacArthur Blvd. and the 55 Freeway in Santa Ana.
Talkgroups 203, 204, & 210 with a color code of 2 are very active all hours day and night.

Not sure where it's coming from but it does seem to be large area coverage.
I've searched the FCC database and there are licensees in the area, none of them to me would be this busy.
South Coast Plaza is close by but I have confirmed it is not them.

Thanks, Randy

Repeater or simplex?

Definitely a repeater, it can be heard over a large area

Don't know the source, but I have noted ENC TG 203/204 up in LA basin prior per my notes.

a quick look at the FCC for that Freq and OC - plenty of possbilities from UC Irving to Mission Hospital and of course the Mouse Ears (but that is simplex)

I got several close call hits at the location mentioned above and I wasn't moving.
Not sure if it was a repeater out close call hit or picking up a mobile transmitting on the input?
As busy as it is, and at all hours of the day or night, I'm thinking Tow, Security or maybe a taxi?
UC Irvine is low power like the mouse. South Coast Plaza was a possibility although they use the frequency, the information in the RR database is correct for them.
DSD+ shows there are six(?) active channels on the Cap+ system.

You won't get a Close Call hit on the subscriber side of DMR.

At work, our radio system is at 464.475. That is the repeater output. We switched to digital a year or so ago.
So you my be hitting on a business band repeater.

WQTR742 - SOUTH COAST PLAZA ?
they have about 12 freqs in the 400 band and those 2 are in there.

After looking around the FCC ULS database, it looks like South Coast Plaza is the only licensee that 1. Contains both frequencies from the capacity plus system, 2. Has the correct emission designation for DMR and 3. Is the closest license location to where you received the close call hit.

Seems very likely to me that if they are still active on their analog freqs, then they are also concurrently using this new capacity plus system.

Not saying it’s not South Coast Plaza, but last time I monitored them they were not encrypted, and using conventional frequency pairs. This was maybe 3 months ago….

If needed, I'll be in the OC 10/9-10/16 and can throw an ear on that.

 

[Randyk4661]

After reading these posts, I want to take a second look at South Coast Plaza. It's the only location that makes sense.
When I slow down at work I give it a try.

Awesome! I'll throw it on the list and see what happens.

It looks like I will be eating crow for dinner tonight.
I have been monitoring the old South Coast plaza system at my house while at work (I've listened to the mall in the past from home) and Proscan has not registered one single hit in 9 hours on any of the old DMR system channels.
It looks like they have gone to a new radio system.
Well FUDGE! No more black Friday monitoring.

Don't worry Randy, I hear crow taste like chicken.
