I have a friend that lives out in LOW, and said that he was able to monitor the security channel for them in the 30-50 mhz range, until about three months ago when it went silent. so after driving around this weekend in LOW, he noticed that they have antennas on their mobile vehicle units that are antennas for the VHF band (145.0000 etc) so he took my freq finder and his digital scanner and sat out by their building for a few hours and could not catch anything digital or analog for them, just LOW maintenance and Fire rescue which have not change as I know it cause I heard those channels working today.
I did a FCC look up, and they are showing the old frequencies for the security, and all the same channels for maintenance and what not, but nothing new for digital frequencies. I called the contact listed on the FCC search results, and the person said that there is no new frequencies, that they have paths. they also said that LOW was using analog and digital radios and are in the process of changing over to fully digital soon.
Now I admit, I am new to the whole digital scanning thing, but am I wrong in saying that there would be a actual digital frequencies that I would have to find, and then type into the HP-1 to hear them?
they were really reluctant to give me any information, as I do not know why, when all these freqs are part of the freedom of information act, and really for the price my friends that live in LOW pay to do so, should have the right to obtain the freq's if they ask for them, it is not like they are programming radios, just scanners.
Guess in short...lol I was wondering if anyone might have the new freq's, or might be able to shine a little light on this for me and my fellow listeners?
Thanks,
Dafe.
