Has Canada’s Wonderland moved to DMR?

[mat14]

Does anyone know or have any information on the new DMR system for Canada’s Wonderland? I turned on my radio today to hear digital noise on their old analog frequency which they where using up until the winter as far as I know.

Good news, you no longer have to search for the frequency, turn on a DMR capable scanner/SDR setup and decode away to said frequency.
Depending on how many channels they used before , Security, etc it will be generally multiples of two.
Be sure to post here what you find.

Since reading this post, I'm sitting on the system. With it being Good Friday, it will be quiet and I have not heard anything as of yet.

Frequencies worth watching are 460.775 (Security) and 461.200 (Maintenance) and to a lesser extent 454.225 (Theatre)
They will be in use before the May 5th opening or even the April 30th preview.

454.225 is used quite a lot by other businesses and some are DMR as well.

Wonderland cut over to a new system last week or so... I did some unrelated work with one of their techs a few days prior, and he mentioned what was going on...

Social engineering at its best. Industry contacts are often a great source of finding out what is going on. They may not be able to give frequencies or TG but often they will mention its a cap+ or stand alone DMR repeater etc. Especially if you ask politely and show a legit interest in what is going on. Not a "I want to monitor the system" type of interest.

I am getting transmissions today on Conventional DMR

460.775 Security Color Code 1 Slot 1 Full Encryption (busier)
461.200 Maintenance Color Code 2 Slot 1 Full Encryption
454.225 has Color Code 6 in the clear but this is not Canada's Wonderland. Given my location it is likely Casino Woodbine.

Well that's sucks, I'm guessing all their frequencies are gonna be ENC?

Unfortunately, it looks like it. They will likely use all their channels closer to the end of the month. The encryption is not totally muted on my 536. It like what you hear with the Special Constables on the Toronto Emergency system.

@mciupa, are you using DSD+, how do you know it's full encryption and is that AES256 then?

 

[mciupa]

No, just my BCD536HP, which is how I discovered the CC details.

I just have the cheap ass DSDPlus 1.101 free version. Perhaps someone else can answer your question in more detail.

Officers responded to several calls for service last weekend... grounds of Canada’s Wonderland. While no charges resulted, several guests were escorted from the park by police.

Do anyone know the TG info for these these 4 channels? Yesterday while in Toronto I heard 461.2000 DMR 2 TG 8133 encrypted pop up but not sure if this is Wonderland or not?

Since reading this post, I have seen 8132, 8133 and 8134 pop up. I've created a four site DMR One Frequency system on the 536 to see what develops. I getting a sense that 8132 is a Security talkgroup.
