Hi, I am a Junior at Chippewa High School in Doylestown, Ohio. I have been trying to find frequencies that the buses and janitors use so I can monitor them with my Wouxun KG-UVD1P which I normally use for amateur use but also can receives from 136-174 and from 350-470 Mhz. I looked up Chippewa Local School's call sign for business band, its WPQE797 but its listed as expired. The Village of Doylestown also has a call sign, WPPW616, but that's the only other entity in Doylestown with an FCC license. I have not been able to receive anything, even when I know that someone is transmitting, and the only thing I know about it is that they all use motorola radios. Could someone tell me where I can find the actual frequencies I can monitor to hear the buses talking? Or would I not be able to hear them using the radio that I have? Is it possible that they are trunked or something? Or using a different mode such as P25 or WFM? Sorry for the long post, but I am fairly new to monitoring. Thanks for your help!
