Greetings all,
Wondering if anyone knows the frequencies used by Secureforce International as well as their frequencies for bus transit security?
I've been listening to many of the public bus frequencies around the 470's but have yet to hear the security channel/s
Cheers

The ACA database shows secureforce owning a single ambulatory (i.e. radio to radio) channel at 450.300Mhz
Maybe they use the bus company radios to talk?

Re: Secureforc Frequencies
461.325Mhz is probably northside. It's in the ACA database to a comms company in Osbourne Park.wacg wrote:461.325 north side
473.575 south side
or the other way around
I know some of the bus driv er tht how I found these

473.575Mhz isn't licensed in WA on the ACA databse though
Anyways, how did the bus driver know the freqs...?

I guess that makes sense (the fact that they transmit on the bus company's frequencies).cooler wrote:Secureforce Transit vehicles are fitted with 2-ways that allow them to transmit & receive ALL vehicles on the Bus Networks , in other words they operate on the Bus Company Freqs as well as their own , especially for operations & arrests.
They use simplex locally in Perth & all stations , buses etc
Sometimes at night such as when I'm putting the wheelie bin out, I've seen a car with "TRANSIT" markings following the bus that runs past my house. It makes sense that the guys in the car can talk to the drive of the bus they are following, otherwise how are they supposed to know what's going on?
A question for cooler since you seem to be in the know with regards to bus security - do the cars just follow buses at random, or do they mainly target routes that are known to have troublemakers? Or is it some combination of the two?

Re: Secureforce freqs
I tried the 450.300 MHz today in Perth and it sounds like pulsating chirping noise and very loud too. I think it's owned by City of Perth now.

Re: Secureforce freqs
Holy thread revival, well since Secure Force no longer do buses that allocation as you see isn't even assigned to them any more.
In case you didn't already know, Wilson's now do it, and their operational channel is 489.400. They also talk on the bus channels to communicate directly to the depot controllers/dispatch relevant to the area.
