Trunking South East Qld

[Comint]

gday all,

all these systems were gathered in one night

Would make it a lot easier, and useful, if the SysIDs of each system were listed in numerical sequence.

Base Frequency - 165.1875
Sys ID - Control Channel - Site Details
0019 - 163.6250 - Mt Goonaneman

Hey also this one is way out of the normal operating area. this one probably has a different base frequency

Yes. Still trying to nut that one out. Not often in a position to monitor it.
It actually requires a Custom Band Plan, as two of the frequencies don't follow logical channel numbering.

more than slightly away from me will have to wade it out and see what we can come up with

[Phil]

more systems have been added with thanx to comint

UHF
Brisbane Airport - QANTAS - Does Require Custom Band Plan
464.3250000 MHz
465.6250000 MHz
465.9500000 MHz
466.1750000 MHz
466.5250000 MHz

Not quite true, although I suppose it depends on what one calls a Custom Band Plan.

A Base Frequency of 463.0000 MHz - Step: 25 kHz - Offset: 500 - works quite well.

hmm ok if I was to add say the QANTAS trunking to trunkview, how would I actually do it

I have trunkview up & running, just dont know the basic steps of doing it

As has been mentioned before on these Forums, TrunkView is ONLY for MPT1327. QANTAS is Motorola Smartnet.

ah my bad I thought it was MPT1327

[Phil]

a LTR System has been added

Mt Coot-tha - 183A
Pinkenba - 0A15
Bulwer Island - 5924, and
QANTAS

are all shown under Motorola Type 2 in the above list.

What a great thread! If someone has the info, would they please indicate the CCs for the Mot Type 2 systems. I have found some CC info spread through other disparate threads (Mt Coot-tha and QANTAS UHF stuff) however this appears like the best place to collate that info. Thanks. Alex

Thanks Phil. Are the freqs in ascending LCN order? Alex

As Phil pointed out, the Channel Numbers and Home Channels are unknown at this time.

And as the Site is LOW powered (5 Watts or less) it is not likely to be heard much more than a couple of hundred metres from the Stadium (well, maybe up to 1000 metres).

i managed to get them up a hill however i was higher than the stadium so that in itself would be why. i will take a laptop with me during the week and seek what i can find

Legacy Motorola Type 2 systems can have up to four frequencies, which are used in rotation for the Control Channel. Usually one frequency is used for a 24 period, then the CC changes to the next frequency, and so on.

More modern equipment may have only two frequencies, a CC, and a Backup or Alternate CC (BCC or AC), with the BCC only been used during periods of Maintenance, or failure of the CC.

Most of the Motorola Type 2 systems listed in this thread have used at least two, and sometimes, three CCs, so I don't know where they fall in the overall scheme of things, and I don't get to monitor them often enough to work it out.

Have added another LTR System for the Brisbane Region

so far we have 2 new LTR Sites which are Suncorp Stadium and Brisbane Entertainment Centre

Hi guys,
I just found the Trunking Tutorial today (thanks Shane & Phillip!)
I have a T9 and no idea where to start, until now.
The frequencies shown in the tutorial are for Mt Coot-tha. I entered them into the T9 but (as I expected) I hear nothing
up here on the Sunshine Coast.
I have heard random trunking freq's when I have the 73xlt (in the car) set to close call. Usually a one-sided conversation with a unique-sounding digital screech at the end of the transmission.

Does anyone know any Sunshine Coast frequencies?

Basically all the frequencies are at the top of this list. There is NO Motorola Smartnet in the Sunshine Coast area. But I have certainly monitored Mt Coot-tha, Bulwer Island and Pinkenba from the Montville area.

The last time I looked, places like Wilkes Knob and Mt Boulder, were in the Sunshine Coast area.

Thanks comint
I feel like a typical noob

I skipped past the obvious info and asked before thinking.
