Has anyone seeing those cell phones the manager's use? Not the ones that connect with a commercial tower, but the kind that have tiny repeaters placed around the store? By the size of the antennas they look like they are at least 800mhz. I went into a walmart with a 246 and cc auto store hidden in my pocket but never picked up anything.
Are you sure they're cellphones? I know some stores here that use cordless phones in intercom mode, could be one of them, since they often come in 800/900/2400 bands.

And as was mentioned earlier, Who needs a scanner, The CSM's run around with them wide open, Can be heard all over the store and it's a supercenter, BUT when I go in there listening to FD transmissions, I get stares...?? Hmmmm.:roll:
Hi there. I work for wally world p/t and have wondered what frequency walmat used. I collect shopping carts and wanted to listen to managment. I had tried the 600 frequency and had no luck. Then put the 570 frequency in and someone was talking. I just bought a new BC92XLT handheld, which seems to work fine for it's size, but either those XTM's walmart use's are weak or the building hampers their signal. I've noticed even these HT1250 walkies the police and other agencies use don't work as well inside some buildings. Someone mentioned Walmart going digital. Humm?, one day maybe.
If anyone wants to know, i discovered the freqs that walmart uses for thier handheld radios. they are 154.600 and 154.570

Walk up to some random employee and say "Code Adam in aisle xx"
Is there really an FCC reg about spanish? you should hear FRS/GMRS in Laredo & McAllen/Brownsville/Padre Island in Texas
that would be pointless... code adam is a the universal page for a lost child. it is used in the following context:
(this is just an example of how to use it)
"ATTENTION ASSOCIATES: CODE ADAM. SMALL HISPANIC CHILD ABOUT 3 YEARS OLD. WEARING A BLUE SHIRT AND RED SHORTS. LAST SEEN IN SPORTING GOODS."
this page is repeated two times, at which time employees monitor all doors and exits and comb the floor searching for a child matching that description. if the child is found, the child is then taken to the fitting room or customer service. if the child is not found within 10 minutes, management is required to call the cops to the store.
also, you forgot to list one page code: "Assistant manager arthur"
it is a fake name to page management to an unknown emergency or extreme shoplifting without alerting the customer or person involved
I know what you mean, They have those things cranked like their like best people in the world. One day they stopped me asking where did you get it and things like that. They where so amazed what a scanner can do! But yeah those CSM's think their big in those uniforms!
because it came up.. yes the digital they are using is not compatable with digital scanners, (not P25), it would seem moto is going with some kind of DSS for those types of radios.
I rather listen to nothing than walmart. What is the world coming to?
That's funny, my local Wally Mart is also on 151.625, but they use these secret service type earpieces.
