Has anyone tried scanning the 6DS country link on VHF mid-band?

Hi all, as I'm sure you've seen the news, there's a "blitz" happening in Northbridge with an extra 200 officers patrolling the area to crack down on anti-social behaviour. I've noticed they have the command truck out there for coordination. Is this using the same set of frequencies and tal...

If someone can help me with setting a stream up, I'm happy to stream the Mandurah region traffic. They use 3 frequencies (apparently trunking but it doesn't seem like it). I have 2 SDR's and a Pi that I'm happy to use for the cause. I'll be back in Mandurah on the 4th.

Which model? If it's the 93XLT, power off the scanner and hold "2", "9" and "HOLD" while you power it on. That should reset it.

Wonder why they're using LTE instead of the upcoming ESRN, just seems very odd.

Reading the rollout schedule on VH, it doesn't look like there's going be any change for DFES for at least 5 years at this stage.

You won't need something as fancy as that to scan the WAERN at this stage. Not until the ESRN is up and running.

DFES have introduced codified callsigns for some operational staff in the Southwest and Metro North East regions. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to disclose who has which callsign though unfortunately.

3rd alarm structure fire at 127 Hubert Street. Apartment block with 2 neighbouring flats well alight. DO Perth and Perth CLP enroute.
2248: Fire Safety Officer enroute
2251: FSO stood down by DO Perth

I'm trunk tracking the Mandurah VKI repeater and I've noticed a lot of the radios calling have IDs that begin with 2109, which means their callsign begins with UI (Uniform India). I've never heard or seen that callsign before, and there's been a lot of units with that 2109xxx ID come up, anyone know...

There's a YouTube channel called perthscanner with many recordings from the analouge and early digital days. https://www.youtube.com/user/perthscanner
