Goodyear PD?

[R1VINCE]

HI guys-
can any of you locals help me with this? Im from california, but im here in arizona for an extended business trip. im staying here in Goodyear. For some reason, i cant hear anything from the Goodyear PD. According to the database, GYPD has 2 frequencies in the 800Mhz band, a dispatch channel and a secondary channel. Ive been here since the 9th of June and havent heard a peep out of these 2 channels. I even had an opportunity to use CloseCall on my br330t standing right next to 2 GYPD units in front of the job i was running while they were checkin out a homeless guy that they got a call on and was unable to catch anything within a span of 15min. I then had another op to use close call as i had to go to the city community development center which is located right next to the PD station here on VanBuren rd and again was unable to get a hit.
Ive also tried to use ID Search on the Maricopa Co trunk system. to see if its there but i havent been able to get anything outside of whats listed in database.

what am i missing?

thanks in advance for any help!

I looked in my lists that I keep on my scanner and I only have those 2 freq's that you mentioned. However, I live way on the other side of Phoenix so I havent even tried to pick it up. Glendale, which isnt too far from Goodear has a bunch going on normally. I know it isnt exactly the same but is still close by and you'd actually hear some action?

I have used the frequencies that I got off of this website and have heard traffic recently. Depends on what scanner you are using I believe they are digital.

they are still analog

After reading about your issue, I decided to unlock Goodyear in my scanner tonight. My scanner is receiving without an issue.

After hearing my scanner receiving Goodyear, I decided to look at the RR DB to see what frequencies are listed. The 2 frequencies that are listed are used by Goodyear, but are not used very often. They are also labeled incorrectly.

Here are the correct freqs:

856.9625 = Ch. 1 (2 direct) = Operations
855.9625 = Ch. 3 (4 direct) = Car to Car
866.0125 = Ch. 5 (6 direct) = ITAC1 Interagency
855.4875 = Ch. 7 (8 direct) = Alternate
857.9125 = Ch. 9 (10 direct) = Alternate
855.4875 = Ch. 15 (16 direct) = Alternate

These are all analog. I will submit an update to the DB.

Cheers,

Joe

thank you for that!(Although I am not the original poster.ha ha) I put it in my scanner database even though I probably wont be able to hear much from my location in town. Are there any CTCSS or DCS tones that accompany the frequencies that you provided? One last question: Where did you get the freq's? The SW Frequency Directory?

I apologize to Dan and company for not citing my source. Yes, these are from the Southwest frequency directory. http://www.scannerstuff.com/swfd.htm

I do not monitor Goodyear that much, but I have heard Channels 1, 3, 7, and 15 used in the past. I also made an update as channel number for 857.9125 was incorrect on my last post.

856.9625 103.5 PL= Ch. 1 (2 direct) = Operations
855.9625 103.5 PL= Ch. 3 (4 direct) = Car to Car
866.0125 156.7 PL= Ch. 5 (6 direct) = ITAC1 Interagency
855.4875 116 DPL = Ch. 7 (8 direct) = Alternate
857.9125 unknown= Ch. 11 (12 direct) = Alternate
855.4875 127.3 PL= Ch. 15 (16 direct) = Alternate

Cheers,

Joe

Joe, I don't mean to sound critical, and your input to updates is always a big plus to all of us, but I noticed on the update in the DB, the frequency of 855.4875 is listed three times, each entry being listed as a different channel. Was this a typo? I tried to verify in my SW Frequency Directory, but it's a little out of date (old copy). Can you double check this? As always, much thanks for your input.

The same frequency is used with different tones for different purposes.

After monitoring the frequencies again I confirmed they are still active.
