I've tried the frequencies listed for Point Pleasant Beach, but I get nothing... does anyone have any current frequencies or any idea why I'm not getting anything... I've got a Radio Shack Pro 96 scanner.

The forums are not the place to post frequencies, especially when you obviously have a problem interpreting what you hear. Please only submit your findings to the database where they can be evaluated in light of all submissions and afforded the proper attention.N2ZGE said:I have CONFIRMED all the information I posted on here from last summer. ...
Okay, let's see, you have been a member for not yet 7 months and have done little (if anything) to support the actual purpose of this website, the database. I have been a member of this organization (I say organization since I have been around before it existed, indeed before it's predecessor, TrunkedRadio.net, existed). I am a global database administrator and a general forum's and all states moderator. But you are probably right, you have a better handle on what is what at the site than I (as a staff member) do. :roll:N2ZGE said:I disagree. These forums ARE for posting, swapping, and discussing frequencies. This is obvious if you surf this website.
In this one statement, you are correct; however, posting a series of frequency and their possible uses as fact, not as a question, is not what the forums are for. The forums (in reference to frequencies) are only for clarifying particular issues on something not understood. They are not for posting a series of frequencies and their uses; that is what the main part of this website is for, the database.N2ZGE said:Sometimes people post frequencies for things they hear on their scanner and there's nothing wrong with that.
How about I don't care for your attitude. I especially don't care what the FCC database says, as the entire purpose of this site is to post what is, not what the FCC says. But tell you what, I will play your silly game; where is someone saying you are wrong in relation to 453.025? It isn't in this thread! "Close Called" a repeater, how is that different than the guy several miles away listening to the same thing? Please, if you don't know what you are talking about, you should be quiet. Repeaters don't go to scenes. But enough of this, understand, what I am trying to tell you as a whole, not a specific instance.N2ZGE said:With that said, I'm going to PROVE that I'm correct simply by comparing it to the FCC database. Let's start with 453.025....the FCC database licensed that frequency has Point Pleasant Boro First Aid WPIP519 is their callsign. But, someone said that I'm totally wrong??? Now, 476.350 WAS used for paging only when I was there last summer (at least for the week I was there). Things could have easily changed since then. Yes, 477.025 WAS the on-scene communication. How do I know? I was standing right next to the repeater when they were called to a scene and I close-called them. But, someone said that I'm totally wrong?? Were you there with me listening to the scanner at this time using the close-call feature??? Unbelievable! Now, 155.820....I didn't hear anything on it, but I believe you regarding what it's used for now. I"m not arguing that. I never debated that frequency. As for the boardwalk operations I listed above, again ALL close-called on my scanner. Those frequencies are low-powered simplex motorola radios that just about anyone can use, so please don't tell me that I'm incorrect on those. I know what I heard!! Instead of debating what someone else posted as a confirmed frequency, how about nicely saying "it's being used by etc.... now" or "I haven't heard anything on that frequency lately, but good catch!"
You're right; you do need to work on being polite. I am really tired of getting reports and PM's in regard to you. I am tired of you filling the NJ forum with frequency information in contravention to the established policies of this website. I am tired of having to be called to the NJ forum to put out flaming threads that you are a participant in. As to the "stay on your Texas forum" and other such comments, you are again wrong, and if you would wake up you might find out that you are very close to not being able to post at all!N2ZGE said:Some of you really need to work on being polite, especially Jaymatt. Also, I don't need someone from Texas debating what I'm hearing on my scanner in Jersey or what I can post on the Jersey forum. Stay on your Texas forum if you don't have anything nice to say!
