Washington Co: Hearing CComm on Beaverton PD dispatch talkgroup?

[alwayslistening]

Is anyone else hearing what sounds like Clackamas County LE dispatch radio traffic on their Beaverton PD dispatch talkgroup?

I noticed it a month or so ago on multiple scanners. it sounds like some sort of reception error, as I also hear two different dispatchers. I need to set up a CComm LE dispatcher scanner to positively identify the cross-traffic I'm hearing.

I have also heard it on my WCCCA Firecomm scanner that is set to scan Ops 35 - 39.

So far I've only visually confirmed that it comes up on my BPD dispatch talkgroup. My scanner is also scanning other BPD talkgroups.

I listen to CCOM law stuff on their VHF system, and have not heard anything like that. At least not on the VHF side. I can't reliably receive the CCOM control channel on the 800 MHz system at my house, hence why I monitor the VHF system, which, albeit some multipath distortion, sounds fine. I also cannot get the WCCCA control channel here either, so I don't monitor that.

I'm hearing Multnomah County Fire Dispatch on WCCCA Techs 2 (TG 65296).

Site 1 occasionally suffers from bleed over from the other freqs, it's pretty distorted but I've heard whole sentences before the channel drops. Dispatchers and users know what it is and ignore it. That might be what you're hearing.

It was multiple dispatches and was just as clear as the other system transmissions.

I was referring to op's original.

I did hear that patch though. They were testing another one on tg 65104 a few ago, fairly certain it was osp portland.

The CComm traffic is just as clear as the BPD traffic I hear. This is occurring on at least three scanners in two locations, Hillsboro and Beaverton. I've heard it on three different models of Uniden scanners, a BCD396XT, a BC780XLT, and a BCD996P2.

I'll have to see if my Whistler TRX-1 does it too. It seems somewhat random.

I have the status bit setting in my Uniden BCD396XT set to "ignore" so that I can hear Beaverton PD when they are patched with South Cities and Hillsboro in the early morning hours. I suspect this might be the culprit as my Whistler TRX-1 doesn't hear the Ccomm LE traffic when it scans the Beaverton PD talkgroups.
