Help IDing a frequency in Ocean County

[Joseph11]

Does anyone know what 151.1350 MHz is? I hear CWIDs on it, and just today, I've heard some voice communications on it. It is not registered in the FCC database nor is it listed on RR. Thanks.

EDIT: Another frequency that I need help IDing is 154.4500 MHz, I know Dover Twp.'s Fire or EMS is using this, I heard the dispatcher on it. It's not in the FCC database nor is it listed on RR, like 151.1350.

151.130 is Dover Township roads (formen only) according to the database on here. i don't see 151.1350 listed on the database.

151.135 Mhz is not a valid frequency. Thats why it doesn't come up on the FCC's database. As stated above, you're picking up Dover Twp.
Same with 154.450 (not a valid freq)

Dover Fire #2 is 154.445 Dpl 624

Try that and see if it works.

HEY JOE where ya goin with that scanner in yer hand.
Always check the freq list here on RR DATA BASE and compare it to what you hear.Then you can see you are mostlikely picking up BLEED OVER from the main freq.Just an FYI.

Police Call

Just so you can have a hard copy - The older police call editions have in the back a list called - " The Consolidated Frequency Table " and this has a valid channel frequency boudary chart for the years before some of the newer splinter channels were allocated. The new editions do not include this information except on the CD Rom the comes with it. It has some pretty good info and some dated info as well but it gives you some place to start for finding valid frequency channel boudaries.....

Hi all,

CWID being all too common because when transmitted without PL the brief transmission doesn't hinder comms and isn't heard by the field units. Voice IDs are extremely rare these days so you really should learn Morse code. The FCC rules permit CWID to be transmitted no faster than 20WPM, the old speed requirement for the Amateur Extra license class. The ability to correctly copy only 5WPM and pass a fairly simple technical exam will get you a ham license with HF priveleges.

Just think, you practice enough and you'll copy those CWIDs with no difficulty and look up the callsign in the FCC database so you won't have to ask any questions of those who know less than you do. (;->)

Hi Joseph and all,

"I have to start studying CW, It'll help me for when I try to get a HAM license."

Don't try it, do it. You can always move up through the ranks, you don't need CW proficiency to get a Technician license. You can use all modes with up to 1500W above 30mHz, you have full priveleges there. The exam is simple, I aced the test with a 100% score in 15 minutes, just memorize the correct answers out of a pool of about 300 questions. It's easier than it sounds, you already have a bit of a background if you take the monitoring hobby seriously.

I suggest the next step is passing the 5WPM code exam, your CSCE (certificate) is good for one year giving you time to study for a more advanced technical exam. "Now hear this", that's all the code you need (but greater speed is very helpful for this popular mode) to advance farther and the Extra class license is considered by much of the electronics and radio industries as the equivelent of a BSEE. Take a similar test adminitisered by the Society of Broadcast Engineers (SBE) and you become certified as a broadcast engineer.

Put your nose to the grind stone and your shoulder to the wheel and you can go far, Amateur Radio opens many doors.

One final note, the Gordon West study manuals and code practice CDs are very helpful and can be obtained from the W5YI VE group. Yes, just Google. Hint: When using the manuals just highlight the correct answers and ignore everything else.
