From NW Charlotte, TRX-1, running a 163-174.000 search , indoors subpar antenna arrangement.

Saturday 11/15/25 1315hrs Single brief garbled tx.

165.4625 $301 RID 5162179

-----------------------
NW Charlotte, TRX-1, with telescoping antenna, pulled out to a couple feet, sitting on roof of car provided better reception.

Sunday 11/17/25 starting 1324 hrs thru 1326

168.5875 $001 RID 5201988

"How copy, TROY?"


then 1334 thru 1355hrs

167.2500 $68F RID 5201988

Air to ground comms, pilot trying coordinate with ground to track someone(s) who ran off into the woods, and to determine whose vehicles belong to whom etc.

Notable snippets for context:

"TROY320"
"...aircraft, LE-6"
"...20 people here off Grier road"

Prob related to chasing the guy selling flowers, which apparently happened around this timeframe:

BORDER PATROL ON WT. HARRIS AND GRIER ROAD, RAIDED FLOWER VENDOR ON STREET, CAUSES TRAFFIC JAM | CHARLOTTE ALERTS NEWS

Reports: CBP Expected to Remain in Charlotte Until Friday | Queen City Nerve

------------------

Wasn't around when any of that was recording and wasn't checking ADSBexchange.com at that time either. Earlier on Sunday the 17th I did notice this:

I presume it landed at Concord Airport KJQF. That's all I got.

165.4625 $301 - I've got no known (need to check other notes from home) Repeaters on this for NC
so it likely was Customs DTAC-05 (Simplex) unless others have more info for it being a Repeater which would be DNET-07

168.5875 $001 - DHS Common - also has been used by TSA and USSS
however TROY being an Aerial Call Sign this likely also points to Customs

167.2500 $68F - Common NIFOG Interop
LE2 if a Repeater or LE6 for Simplex

Have you captured any RIDs on those TGs? Strange that they are splitting ranks going to Boone and Raleigh (as Mayor and Governor announced)

For those of us who only know how to program our HP2 via the Sentinel app, which systems should I be programming my scanner for to hear CBP & ICE in the Triangle?
