Philly area frequency

[ampulman]

I was parked at the Cherry Hill Mall lot searching the Federal bands. Got a hit on 168.3875.

It was very short; just rattled off 2 10-codes. Thought it was a police dispatch frequency. Monitored the frequency for quite some time and it was silent. Eventually, heard a short data burst.

When I got home, I looked it up in the FCC database for PA/NJ. No listing.

So, I assume it's Federal. Anyone have any info on this freq?

Was it analog or digital? PL/DPL/NAC?

I believe it was analog (no P25 indication on display).

Don't do NACs, and CT/DPL search turned off.

I have since turned CT/DPL search on for that channel.

Sat. 1/16 - update:

No voice traffic. Only brief (what sounds like) open carriers of about a second in duration, and some data bursts (sounds like a pager).

Scanner is set for tone search, but not showing any. I believe (correct me) that data/pager-like transmissions don't use tones.
