Hey everyone. I looked around, but couldn't find threads related to this. Lost Hills/Malibu frequencies (482.9125 for dispatch and 483.9125 for L-TAC) used to be quite active. Now, I barely hear anything. When I do, it's more W.Hollywood or L.A. proper.

Does anyone know if their channels/frequencies have changed?

Thanks!

Hey everyone. I'm resurfacing this because I noticed something that I haven't found an answer to in the LA-RICS discussions.

482.9125, historically, has been Lost Hills / Malibu Sheriffs dispatch, with corresponding L-TAC on 483.9125. Seemingly overnight, activity ceased. That's when I posted the original message asking what is going on, and I then learned about LA-RICS. Bummer.

Fast forward to today-- 482.9125 is dispatch for central LA or areas around there. Rarely, I hear dispatch for Lost Hills / Malibu area. However, just now, I heard about an incident down the street (on Lost Hills). Dispatch advised units to use L-TAC. Then, I heard L-TAC activity on the same frequency (482.9125)... and at times... dispatch was doubling-over L-TAC.

Any idea what this is about? RadioReference seems to have updated L-TAC frequencies, and L-TAC 1 is no longer listed.

Sometimes SRC will have a single dispatcher working several areas. Each area is actually on their own frequency, but the frequencies are patched or linked at the dispatch console.

It's also possible that there's work being done on one frequency and it's temporarily linked to another channel.

Maybe try monitoring both Lost Hills/Malibu frequency and East LA (?) {LASD doesn't have a central LA station), maybe Compton (?) and see if the same audio is present on both channels.
