Go north east buses

Post by Scanner125 »

are you aware of the ofcom database and how to use it?
if not go to
http://spectruminfo.ofcom.org.uk/spectrumInfo/licences

sort of licence business, then for this purpose technically assigned

what ever your frequency range is you want to search then select MHz

then on the map zoom in and use the select area cross at the top, click on it and drop it in the middle of your search area, then left click and expand it out to make the search area wider.

then click submit search.

Thanks man, I'll have a look

UPDATE: It seems like this is more of a finding a needle in a haystack operation, I cannot find the company's frequencies

This is my understanding: The bus company will likely have a TX frequency (depot transmit) and RX (driver transmit, depot receive).

I search the WTR like this: say the frequency I'm getting the depot/taxi firm on is 165.125, I search between 165.1 to 165.2. Assuming my search radius is correct, I get the licence holder with their TX and RX frequencies. I program the RX freqs in and if I'm in range, I get the drivers.

Of course, there may be a standard offset from TX to RX freqs (4.8 mhz on the stuff I have in my scanner) which you could apply to the depot freq and see if you hit paydirt.
