National Bus Frequencies

Hiya Folks

I've been doing a bit of digging as the local bus company use a trunked system. From the sources I have, I have the following details.

All the 'notes' attached say that in 2002 the bandplan so could be different for frequencies above 200Mhz. However, I know of active mpt1237 trunked use on some of those frequencies...

I might manage to program all those 140 frequencies into the radio (!!!) to test they do work. I know a bit about the information and I'm trying to get trunking working at home on the computer with the scanner but my brain doesn't like it at the moment. If anyone could help I'm open to that too

Hi,

All those frequency allocations are in the process of being terminated to allow for an expansion of DAB network.
Buses moving to Lower Band3 174-183.5 and/or 139MHz depending on areas.

Rgds,
Alan

These are, I believe, MPT1327 but will get it confirmed soon. They are in the freq bracket for MPT1323 though…

At the moment this company show no inclination to move frequencies and have recently upgraded the system with new hardware using more data. The in-vehicle radios are less than 5 years old I believe...
