I can just imagine what will happen if ACMA is privatised. CB idiots over the emergency service channels. Jerks running 10,000 watt amps onto all the frequencies they can.

And nothing done about it.

Interesting. I thought that the GRN was already working out there.

That magenta/Magenta combo is confusing. Just give them Magenta/White\Red.

Duly noted Bank modified!

I guess we are criminals then, according to the media.

I can't comment on vollies using non-Vertex self supplied radios, as it's more of a DFES policy thing, but commercial land mobile equipment needs to be certified again...

It was most likely flying with the Black-Hawk Helicopters.

I'd be happy to help provide a linux guide.

Linux is the preferable platform for this kind of experimentation.

Is the VM accessing actual hardware, not a virtual COM port?

I'm going to get a lot of surplus gear that can support it.

Yes, it's not all that legal, but meh, I break the law responsibly.

Roland, the system is Motorola Capacity Plus running 5 TX/RX freq pairs. As the system is Mototrbo you will need to use equipment that can receive DMR. FYI, The repeater "booms" out and can be heard quite a distance from the stadium. Portable RID's start with 61XXX and base/fixed units ar...
