Not possible I'm afraid. that's what I thought unfortunately. Thanks for the confirmation. I can see why they have gone encrypted though. Makes a lot of sense when ya think of it from their perspective. Anyway I have enough to listen to with full fireie network and also I'm a monitor on the Perth c...

PER05 is infact the emergency repeater, But in the event of an emergency it's not where i'd be going to put out a ditress call, the people that do occupy ch5 are more than likley going to tell you to "F**K OFF!" then get you then help you will need, id be heading to another repeater eg. P...

Gday all, just wondering if it is possible to listen into WA police comms esp in Perth and surrounds including Lower Chittering.

Saw a thread here about something similar being heard on ch18, but that system isn't active anymore. It's around 8pm now and not getting tails anymore. Wondering if any of you know...

Hi all, as most of you have probably already seen, I've made a thread for anyone interested in monitoring PER05 and keeping it clear, so I figured it is fitting to also do the same for the other inputs. This thread is for anyone who is interested in helping to keep channels 31 - 38 and 71 - 78 clear...

PER05 is the Perth channel 5 emergency repeater, and even in the city, the occasional full-blown emergency call does come through. This thread is for anything regarding PER05 including informati...
