Hi all.

I've noticed a Trainrider/PTA security channel that has picked up in signal strength lately - 419.500Mhz. No idea where that repeater is but it sure has a nice signal listening in the car :-)

Anybody else want to try it and see if they get it better than the other Westrail freqs?

Midland area

Tyson,

Check out the sticky'd thread in the Public Transport forum and open the Westrail frequency list.

You probably want the last 20 entries on that list in the 400 MHz range, they're the public transport ones. The other ones on a lower frequency are generally for the freight traffic.
