Need Portable Freqs- Fauquier County

[meisrc]

AnYone knows what the Freqs are for Fauquier County Sherriff Portables? I hear alot of "call me on my portable" and it doesnt go thru the trunked system.

That's because the portable they are talking about are phones, that's why you can't hear them.

Could be but i doubt it, because when they want to call on the phone they say so. I think its a portable radio.

 

[kg4icg]

there portable radio's are linked thru the mobiles in there cruisers, nextels are also known as portables because of the direct connect feature. So as i said, they went to there phones.

R Collins.

ps
If you ever notice, that sometimes when deputies, or officers are walking around you might also see a cellphone on them with there radios'. There's just some things that the public wasn't meant to overhear.

 

[meisrc]

Well when a deputy says he dont have cell service or his phone , and then says go to the portable, that certainly knocks out any phone type device.

 

[kg4icg]

Then they are simplex which means it isn't going thru the trunk system repeater and it is short range.

 

[meisrc]

Now we are getting somewhere...Im looking for those Freqs, its not any of the ones i have for them.

 

[kg4icg]

When you go simplex basically you are just using the input frequencies of a trunk system in a regular mode instead of trunk so you take all the trunk system frequencies which are the output which is shown in the database subtract 45 mhz and you have the input frequencies in which you set them as fm and you might find them. Or they might have had some simplex frequencies programmed in in which no one has taken the time to search out.

1997 Police Call Records

Well, I checked the FCC database and found nothing. But I have an old 1997 Police Call, and here's what it has for Fauquier County Police/Gov:

Hope this helps. Good chance these freqs are still in use in some capacity.

 

[meisrc]

Found the FREQ...Thanks all. 853.4875 and 808 4875 are the Freqs.

 

[Gilligan]

Okay, now this is just curiousity, but how did you find the frequency?

 

[meisrc]

Looked at some other Areas and seen they were used there figured why not see if they work here and they did. Quite Busy i might add also.

 

[dtscho]

Also see license WQBG503 for some other frequencies they might be using simplex. They were using 866.3625 [173.8] and 868.5125 [173.8] at the VA Gold Cup at Great Meadow on Saturday.

a lot of 800 MHz trunked systems use these freqs as low power talk-around channels. 800 MHz simplex doesn't travel very far, so i'm surprised you have been able to hear so much.

also check out...

a lot of good info there too.

I guess im just in a good area where alot6 of stuff was going on y'day.
Again thanks to everyone who helped out with this.
