New 380Mhz DAFB TRS system

[Audiodave1]

Passed thru Dover today and since the wife was driving I has time to scan a bit.
Found a CC on 381.7375 at DAFB and a few active freq's with traffic.
It was interesting that the BC250 APCO25 got confused and muted the channels during a search until I turned the card off. Didn't have time to medd with Q settings to get a voice decode.

I'll be going thru there alot thru the summer but need to get my trunker skills up to par to read this system.

I think that finding new stuff like this is coolest part of the hobby. Have fun!

Rgr and Thanks for heads up Dave!

Slow Sunday so managed to make Dover AFB area and can confirm a CC freq of 381.400 on my PRO-96.

Seems to be a 9600 baud system but CC does not id or track in conventional Motorola mode.
I wonder if UHF MOT 2 setup may be in order or possible CC is encrypted.I only had half hour too play with so will do some more research later.
Anyone have any luck id tracking new 380 MHZsystems?

Voice freqs for new 380 MHZ at Dover are and I was easily catching both sides of transmissions heard but always possible a freq missed or may be added later.

386.0650
386.1650
386.1750
386.3500
386.7375

With only 5 freqs not too hard to hear ground crews talk using conventional scanning and even heard a ambulance/rescue dispatch call.
No encrypted heard but am sure system is capable.

On the way home could easily hear voice coms L+C at Dover Downs Raceway near route 1.

I understand most of DOD installations will be using new 380 MHZ systems by next year.

I don't believe the Pro-96 or any currently existing scanner will track a system in the 380 MHz band, unfortunately. However, you can use the Pro96com program with your Pro-96 to decode the control channel data. Please submit any updates to the RR Database.

Hey Mark,
Thanks for heading down and collecting some info.

Once we get a little more I'll update the DB.

Not to sound stupid but are these frequencies to be used for ground operations?

380-400 MHz was cleared of prior users as of January 1, 2005 for military land mobile trunked systems.

Also I noticed that ISR radios operate in this range. 399MHz something or other. Those aren't trunking though...
