Channel 50 is in Joondalup and is linked to channel 48 in Koondoola. Channel 40 I think is an enquiries channel.
I think this sort of problem is one of the reasons the police are going to digital. You might be in range of a repeater but if it's not the right channel for your district you'd might as well switch your radio off... the digital system would act more like a mobile phone does and connect automatically to the nearest base staation/repeater.

Ahh ok. Ch40 doesn't appear in the ACMA database to be used by WA police :-/ Might have been a portable/temporary repeater perhaps?
