Buses?

Post by Bonez »

Hi all

I looking for frequencies for South Coast Transit (particularly around the Cannington, Forrestfield and Midland areas.

I can't seem to find a list anywhere here on this site. Is there anything like this available?

I am interested in listening to routes such as 297, 298, 294, 799 etc.

Thanks
Bonez

470.6750 is sWAn Transit Midvale Depot (Midland-Mundaring-ellenbrook ect)
If I'm not mistaken 472.9750 is the Mundaring repeater (Same as 470.675 but used after Greenmount Hill)
6ST Base is clear, is there a mobile calling on this channel?

I heard one of the CAT drivers ask to go to channel 8 today to speak with City Base and picked it up on the same frequency as Swan Transit Emergency channel which is 473.375. Afterwards City Base said going back to 7 which is the 472.775 frequency.

I believe that Fremantle CATS operate on a different radio set up to the rest of Southern Coast Transit can anybody please inform me as to their frequencies.


I was going through my scanner today and 462.0125 & 462.025 for Fremantle CATS they sound like they are on telephone trunking type of set up.

If anybody doesn't believe me that Fremantle CAT chat on those frequencies, program them into your scanner and listen for a while and I have definitely heard Fremantle CAT drivers chatting to each other on those frequencies.

The Freo CAT radios do operate differently to the rest of the Veolia Radios.

I have that one in my scanner already. On those frequencies I mentioned before I have mainly heard bus to bus amongst the Fremantle CAT driver and have also found 462.3375 as well.
