WA Radio Scanner Users' Group

Yep and that's pretty cheap for a new scanner these days as they don't sell as well as the good old days. It is one of the current entry level models but it's fine for what you want to do. Just be aware that listening to ground transmissions (ie from the ground to the aircraft) is often hard to rece...

Hi there, the first one no as that's just a "walkie talkie" (yes I know I shouldn't be using that word but easiest to describe it). But the second one yes that's what you want!

And you'll never get a unit that can transmit on air band off the shelf so don't worry about that.

Yes that's a great comparison.

Short answer: Nope.

There are, however it's not something they would post online to the public.

For air band? Just my thoughts really imagine tens of thousand of aircraft that can't just swap a radio, then the tens of thousands of ground stations, navigation beacons etc. The low frequency AM transmissions are best for long range usability, not about interference. One main drawback of digital i...

DFES, yeah sure that could happen same as any emergency service they are one of the last to go that way. Air band good luck with that, digital over distance is not exactly a great idea.

Under https://warsug.info/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5454 "WAERN Channel/Frequency information (Channels 101 - 653 aka "High band")" the pdf has # marks next to the know control channel repeaters if that's what you mean. It also has the comms plan (three letters in bold and a number...

None they have been digital encrypted for a while now.

Windows wouldn't even know what it is I don't think it will however I'll email you a Dropbox link instead both zipped and unzipped see how that goes.

Did it download correctly? The file is 132kb.

Mine is 2.17, does it come up with any error or just can't see it/open it?

Yep all the files my freescan created are .996 files? What version of freescan are you using?

It could be between 354-369 really. And mid band 46-49 or 96-99 but as stated not common any more.

However if you are talking more on house fires, and career fire fighters they use UHF portables.

I've just emailed you that file, let us know if you have drama's getting them into your scanner.
