Now-a-days, United States Navy ships run Trunked Radio Systems. Either APCO25 or EDACS.

The draw back is that being new to the country, I have less of an idea than some to be able to find the venues to find things such as radios.. not that they're obscure, but for some reason the internet seems to be soaking up some of the demand that had been there in the past, for whatever reason. T...

While not quite in the price range, at $170, the Maycom AR-108 from Skylines Pilot Supplies at Moorabbin Airport, might be worthwhile considering. In the past, Pilot Shops at General Aviation airfields, have had a selection of Receivers capable of receiving the VHF Aeronautical Band, although this d...

Hi all, Just completed a guide that lists all known frequencies and channels. I've only done channel lists for Central Park and Perth Airport, so maybe somebody else would like to do the other networks. Download link is here I realise the ACMA Database is not 100% accurate, but they show 86x.1375 a...

Probably changed their rules since 9/11, but in the past, the USAF was more likely to let you look around, than the RAAF was.

During a recent 50-860MHz scan, I came across a very powerful signal at around 768MHz (give or take a few KHz; My receiver is not all that accurate). I don't know what it is, or where it is coming from, but it appears to be a constant signal, I get nothing on AM or FM besides general noise, SSB sou...

If you have TrunkView set up correctly, you shouldn't be hearing any data noise.

Qld government fire services vehicle, parked at Toowoomba Airport: The Queensland Fire and Rescue Service (QFRS) comprises two elements - Urban Operations, and Rural (Bushfire) Operations - and as you can see from the photo, that vehicle is Rural Operations.

http://www.linato.net/trunkview This sort of network is very popular here in Perth. I haven't played with this myself, does anyone have a list of control channel frequencies? TrunkView, as downloaded, defaults to Filter Set 1. If you select Filter Set 3, TrunkView will display "Vote Now Advice...

Ok so I went to the international airport with the ubc93xlt and had close call on and got these 407.2125 509.725 456.850 820.4875 821.4875 822.4875 823.4875 824.4875 825.4875 There on simplex so you actually have to be in the airport to recieve them I think you will find that the following is more ...

You are right, that frequency appears to be is general purpose use, whole of council. I captured the frequency of a City of Stirling security car using a near field device. On the ACMA database that particular frequency was licensed to BISCOMM. 43 frequencies were listed, some of them were located ...
