Many of these frequencies appear to be used by utilities in the area - and are not included in the RR database.

I added all the utilities to my scanner and tried scanning them all the ones in my area at least and i get nothing on the scanner. but i can get part of a voice from time to time on dsdplus. like i said i searched this 451.42500 and others like it and added it all to the scanner but still not gettting nothing

. like i said i searched this 451.42500 and others like it and added it all to the scanner but still not gettting nothing

How did you program this frequency in the sds100? Here are some questions.

• What did you select for Audio Type?
• What is the Service Type set to?
  • Do you have the service type enabled while scanning?
• Is Location Control on or off?

If the frequencies are not programmed correctly, you will hear nothing.

I looked on radio reference and programmed it accordingly
i looked in sentinel and if dsdplus had anything different such a tone i corrected it
the service type i turned them all on in sentinel to just scan
i'm not sure on location control i do have it set to 50miles

for example 153.1250 is dickenson county in on RRDB it shows NXDN48 encrypted but i'm picking that freqs up and it's showing DMR color code 6 and it has traffic not sure if it's dickenson tho

I'm lost. I thought you could not find these frequencies in the RR db. I was specifically looking at 451.25. Let's focus on one issue at at time. What do you want to work on?

Your not getting it. While 153.125 is dickerson sheriff, that does not mean there is not another agency licensed for that freq. Just because the database says its the sheriff, that does not mean they are the only one using the freq.

Something that's been repeatedly explained to you. Yet you keep asking the same thing, but with a different freq each time.

Learn how to search. Learn how to use the FCC site because radio reference database ONLY lists what has been found and submitted. Nothing else. Only found and submitted. The FCC has licenses for every freq that has been licensed.

Yes, radio reference says 153.125is the Dickenson County Sheriff

152.465		WRDJ335	RM	10 RAN	DCSO Disp	Sheriff Dispatch (Haysi)	NXDN48E	Law Dispatch
153.0575		WRAJ765	RM	10 RAN	DCSO Disp	Sheriff Dispatch (Red Onion)	NXDN48E	Law Dispatch
153.125		WRAJ765	RM	10 RAN	DCSO Disp	Sheriff Dispatch (Trammel)	NXDN48E	Law Dispatch

FCC search for 153.125 says VA Kay Communications and Lists WRAJ765, the same license listed for the sheriff. Guess what? The sheriffs only lease the freqs from the company who the freqs are licensed to.
