"Maybe that RCA guy can reveal what the story is with that since he lives in joisy."
I thought I made it clear I don't have a clue what you guys are on about. All I can tell you is what I know from experience, living at the southern end of the North Jersey Coast Line I've never heard NJT on any marine channel, but read on.
"Let me be clear I know all the marine channels, and my goal is to find out the radio plan for NJ transit."
Easier said than done, while it's easy enough to compile a list of frequencies they're licensed for by transmitter locations when it comes to the trains you have to look at other railroads. They don't always run over their own tracks, they lease rights as well and switch to the appropriate road channel depending on where they're operating. For example down this way they're on 161.235 but when the Hoboken and New York trains get to Rahway they switch to Amtrak on 160.920. Then there is MoW, Power Dispatch and Signal Department having their own channels and don't switch having no need to do so.
That having been said you won't find marine channels in the NJT radio plan, none may be authorized. Now if, and this is a really big IF someone MAY have programmed one or more as "talk around" channels without authorization. Like I said I have heard boats on railroad channels so it just could be radio piracy (illegal operation) can work both ways. If this is the case somebody is looking to have his head handed to him on a platter, FCC rules strictly forbid land mobile use of marine frequencies and shore stations operate under special licenses.

Relax Justin, this is the last post in this thread you need to read... move on and let them flame each other. Frankly I'm disappointed reading what was posted while I took my sweet time mulling it over and writing this, RR has its moments and a few who don't choose their words and I'm sorry to say you're one of them. Please take the advice given to me some time ago, if you want to fly like an eagle don't run with the turkeys.
