Ottawa Hospital network basic info

[cheap_ottawa_scanner]

While searching the TAFL for my previous threads, I found this network not listed on the Ottawa page, so I am sharing here before submitting info to see if anyone else has already done some work on it.

So far I have this info:
DMR Capacity+ system 4 logical channels ( 2 freq 808.3375 MHz and 853.3375MHz )
It has Basic Privacy enabled on the one talk group I have seen. The one talkgroup I have seen is tg=200 , I can look up the user id's if anyone cares enough. Color Code 3

I did some TAFL search of the freq and within my area and it is the only entry for at least one of them, so it is reasonable to assume this is for the Civic location (by the Experimental Farm).
So far, I have not gotten much traffic over the roughly 24 hours I have let one of my setups sit on the site. I will note that all the traffic I did see was all on the 853.3375MHz freq when I was actively watching the decode on DSD-FME. Thankfull,y that DMR trunking rest beat makes it easy to confirm that the freq was active to some extent.

Judging by the license info. It's only 1 frequency 853.3375 the other one 808.3375 is the input. I would program it as a DMR OFT if anything with 853.3375 as your main frequency. Forget about the input frequency.
Oh, and it's not the Civic, it's the Royal Ottawa Hospital.

There's also another frequency to try out as a DMR OFT as well 464.6875

Scrap my last comment about putting it as a OFT. I do see I had it in my programming already, and it was noted as a Cap+. Sorry about that. What's the other frequency? 464.6875

The 72.XX MHz frequencies I assume are just clocks? At a previous job I had the pleasure of dealing with Primex clocks that took D cells

Most hospitals have stuff in that range. Not sure what it is. Data? Telemetry? Perhaps clocks.

Yes, sync signals for clocks.

I can verify that 72xx are clocks. Those frequencies are in use allover the province. I would also keep a close eye on the 770-775MHz band. LMRN is reported to use those for onsite repeaters for EMS (not the regular DVRS assignments). You may get lucky and catch someone setting one or two up.

I have been spending a great of time at the Ottawa General Hospital, and while there searching for any interesting comms.
It appears that the old LTR system is not in use any more and I have not been able to find a new system so far.
I think they may be using some sort of IP system as they have IP antennas throughout the entire building and it makes sense to make use of it for full coverage comms.

Have you been able to download my hpd file I uploaded in another thread. I've included the General campus. They do have a couple of DMR/MotoTRBO frequencies that they're licensed to here.

Yes I have that thank you.

The next time I am at the General will have a look at those. Not sure when I will be there next but I can stop by when I am on the road.
So far nothing at all using close call or SDR# except for the ambulance in car repeaters.
Nothing on those frequencies here from home, and nothing in my SDR log, or DSDPlus.frequencies file
