The summer of LTR...

[trooperdude]

Since fire season is off to a slow start, I've decided to dedicate one of my Pro160's to LTR monitoring for the San Francisco Bay Area.

So if you have suggestions, or some of that weird IG LTR trunking data, submit it to the database and I'll combine it with my live findings from monitoring the systems over the next few months.

If nothing else, my Spanish will improve. :wink:

Which part of the Bay Area? Spanish will definitely improve.

From my LP I can hear everything from Marin to Monterey.

Unfortunately I don't have a setup yet to determine LCN order to make them easier
to monitor.

I did program them in, but I haven't heard much, which I am pretty sure is because
LCN is out of whack.

Hey Trooper, it's now the fall of LTR, but I wanted to pass along the following systems if you're still interested. These are all systems I have personally verified, and most are in the North Bay.

North Bay

Signature Wireless Group (many licenses to Griffin Wireless / Tadlock & Associates / etc. All lead to the same address.) Their website has a coverage map here: Products

San Pedro Ridge, San Rafael: Signature Wireless Group (San Pedro Ridge) Trunking System, San Rafael, California - Scanner Frequencies

Big Rock Ridge, Novato: Signature Wireless Group (Big Rock Ridge) Trunking System, Novato, California - Scanner Frequencies

Wolfback Ridge, Sausalito: Signature Wireless Group (Wolfback Ridge) Trunking System, Sausalito, California - Scanner Frequencies (Just found this one!)

Big Rock Ridge / Grizzly Peak networked Passport system (licenses hint that it might be owned by SWG even though it says Crystal Comm): Crystal Communications (Bay Area PassPort) Trunking System, Various, California - Scanner Frequencies (Not trunk-trackable by any scanner.)

Sonoma Mtn, Petaluma: Signature Wireless Group (Sonoma Mountain) Trunking System, Petaluma, California - Scanner Frequencies (I only partially figured this one out and there should be more voice channels.)

FleetTalk Partners (bought Champion Communications)

Big Rock Ridge, Novato: FleetTalk Partners (Big Rock Ridge) Trunking System, Novato, California - Scanner Frequencies

Big Rock Ridge #2: FleetTalk Partners- was Champion Communications (Big Rock Ridge #2) Trunking System, Novato, California - Scanner Frequencies (might be a different company)

Big Rock Ridge #3: Crystal Communications (Big Rock-1) Trunking System, Novato, California - Scanner Frequencies (Says Crystal Comms but might be FleetTalk - need to look into it) (North Bay FSP dispatched by CHP here.)

East Bay

The Radio Guys, Mt Diablo: The Radio Guys (Mt Diablo) Trunking System, Near Danville, California - Scanner Frequencies

The Radio Guys, Mt Vaca: The Radio Guys (Mt. Vaca) Trunking System, Vacaville, California - Scanner Frequencies

RFC Wireless, Grizzly Peak: RFC Wireless (Grizzly Pk) Trunking System, Oakland, California - Scanner Frequencies

The following haven't been verified by me, but probably still exist:

Signature Wireless Group, Black Hills: Tadlock & Associates (Black Hills) Trunking System, Near Danville, California - Scanner Frequencies (says Tadlock & Associates and needs to be changed - site is SE of Mt Diablo.)

Signature Wireless Group, Wiedmann Hill: Signature Wireless Group (Wiedemann Hill) Trunking System, San Ramon, California - Scanner Frequencies

Timeslot, Monument Peak: Time Slot Trunking, Inc. (Monument) Trunking System, Monument, California - Scanner Frequencies (I can't verify all the freqs but I know this one is still in use.)

Finally, don't forget the 3-state Fisher Wireless TeamTalk Passport system: Fisher Wireless TeamTalk Trunking System, Various, Multi-State - Scanner Frequencies (You won't be able to trunk track it though.)

Hope you're still interested, and good luck!

It's been a while since I've been to Wiedemann and Monument but initially I provided that info based on what was there. They may have reduced a few channels. Looking at Wiedemann it looks correct. The system on Monument used to be fairly large but many channels were brought over to their PassPort system, so who knows what's left.

I have a 22KB CSV file of 480-490 LTR frequency data from the South Bay (channels / logged LCN / freq / licensee, etc.) Is that too much to dump here, so other folks can chew on it? Or submit it?

 

[inigo88]

I can verify Signature Wireless: Black Hills is still used, although I haven't noticed much traffic and everything I saw was on LCN 17.

Doug, I don't know if I'm the definitive answer but I'd love to see that file, here or otherwise.

Zip it and attach it. I don't think the board permits the CSV extension.
