Taylor, TX PD traffic heard in OK!

[car2back]

I am hearing units calling "Taylor" on 155.25 PL 141.3 on my radio console at Skiatook, OK PD near Tulsa loud and clear! I guess those storms last night really opened up the ducting!

Here is a current tropo forecast for your area. http://www.dxinfocentre.com/tr_map/car2.jpg Taylor should be in the central portion of Texas.

Hey Phil,
When I was working at the Sheriff's office communications division. Sometimes when the conditions were right we could receive the Sher-
iff's Office from Cleveland, Ohio and they could hear us. In fact one day we received a teletype from them aknowledging that they receiv-
ed traffic from us on their channel, our dispatch channels were the same frequency 39.54 on the VHF low band. When we moved to
800 I have picked up Harris County SO out Houston, Texas, it appears
that HCSO has a couple of frequencies the same as EBRSO.

Pre Borgnet, one of Harris County's frequencies was the same as Angelina County's (154.8900). It was interesting late at night hearing Angelina County acknowledge Harris County Eastside units, run registrations, etc.

Speaking of, do you have an old list of the HCSO Radio Lineup from the VHF days? I have a renewed interest in pre-800 counties' radio systems. Sounds like an overload of boredom I know, but heck, this is a hobby.

Hey rattlerbb01
I remember 153.92 of HCSO and Intercity base 155.37

I used to have a huge list called texas.doc that I got from somewhere on the web that was from about 1998 that had every county in Texas, plus DPS, TDCJ, Federal, Military, National Forests, and even the old legacy systems. I think it had the old HCSO channels on it, but I have since lost it.

From the very dusty and musty archives, which the formatting will probably mess up:


Note: None in the following lists are currently in use (AFIK), except for the (very rarely/occasional/almost never?) Intercity (3, 4 Law 1 and 2) use, which is most likely when the command vans are in service.

Good list. The one from Ed Lentz is the one I had. I lost it when I had to reload windows.
