What model siren controller do they have in the vehicles?

Crash on Kwinana Freeway Southbound, lanes blocked off and multiple crews on scene. Got a clip of it, slow it down in the YouTube player to get a better view. https://youtu.be/3F8bh4ZeSpw

It's not just WiFi, it seems that my reception for Transperth on my scanner is anntetuated, tried with my telescopic antenna and my NA-771.

They're using 450.1125 for management. Don't know if the emergency services will be using radios too.

Would of got some closer photos but there were 2 guards outside and I already walked past with my scanner on full volume.

Does anyone know what frequencies I can hear the train drivers on?

Well I "figured" it out from when a Mandurah unit had an open channel and base alerted to which WT is was, put 2 and 2 together and I assume that they're handhelds. The selcall correlates to their staff number, if you look on their name badge it has a 5 digit number, same as the 5 digit CC...

Whisky Tango xxx is the handheld radio number. Fleet is most likely what station or what division they're for, like Transit Guards, Wilson Guards and Revenue Officers.

Brilliant, I've put those in my scanner now. Thanks!

Wouldn't surprise me. CB 3 always seems to be a mess, a couple of the operators on there brag about their radios not being approved for CB and that they are amateurs.

I've read before that you generally need 2 SDR's. One for the trunking control channel and one for the active frequency.
