Lakes Region

Last night after cleaning out my LOCKED OUT freqs, I got a hit on my signal stalker. 150.800 dc 364. There is NADDA in the FCC database close by, so after waiting an hour, a tone went out. ( I forget what town was paged ) Then a voice said " Lakes Region to,,,,, ".. I know they have been testing all summer on other freqs like -- 160.110---dc-331--lakes region 2, and 33.900--192.8. I wonder what their plan is.

33.90/192.8 is the Control Frequency for the Simulcast System. 150.7975 (150.800 in older scanners) is sometimes used for a remote site control.

Ch-2 (160.110/D331) can be used by agencies that haven't reprogrammed the new PL for Channel-1.

I don't know how -old- the pro 106 is, but 2 of them gave me that freq and tone. The next freq down from 150.8 according to the pro 106 is--150.7875. Is it a --splinter freq? It goes into 2 unidens as 150.795 or 150.800, and 3 R-S pro 106's as 150.800 or 150.7875. That's strange...But thanks...

Some of the newer scanners may trip differently in a 7.5khz search and/or Close Call. That section of frequencies didn't exactly follow the rest of the allocation.

150.775 Mobile 87 PM.
150.7825 ......do 88 PM
150.790 ....do 87 PM.
150.7975 ....do 88 PM.
150.805 ......do PM
150.995 Base or mobile 28 PH
151.0025 ......do 27, 28 PH
151.010 ......do 28 PH
151.0175 ......do 28 PH
151.025 ......do 28 PH

The normal pattern would have been 150.800.

What you're hearing is a link from dispatch to a very remote site (that's why you've only heard a few departments) and is used in conjunction with the standard 159.9000 channel.
