[TheList] Frequency Lists

Fri Apr 29 19:47:55 AEST 2011

Interesting thread,

Yes it's easy enough to work out where the repeater channels sit with
respect to their outputs however they have generally have tone protection.

Leave well enough alone, I for one use them to find out my local users..  I
can transmit if I wanted it's not hard to buy a Tait of trademe right now, I
like most of us here wouldn't however.

Hi Mike,

I agree with your very sensible suggestion, even though no-one else seems
to.

While it may be public information, the only real use of it it for causing
trouble.

So, rather then give a box of matches to a bunch of small children (I think
this is the closest analogy) I'm in favour of removing the TX frequencies.

Then, if you want to cause trouble, do the work, and figure them out
yourself.

There's no need for our little community to make it easy for every dick-head
to cause trouble.

Once that happens, it'll end up like the UK, where you aren't even legally
allowed to listen.

If we don't even try to adopt a responsible attitude, and self-police our
community, it'll be done for us.

As I said, there's NO REAL REASON to have them there, and it just causes
confusion.

Hi folks.

Why do any transmit frequencies need to be listed anyway? If people are
supposed to have access to these systems, they'll have the frequencies
already, or know who to contact to get them. Having them on the wiki just
encourages the riffraff to try and see if they can trigger the repeaters,
thus p*ssing off the legitimate users.

Receive frequencies are fine, but really, do we need tx? The wiki was
designed for scanners, not txers.

Hi.

Thanks for the suggestion. PIB 23 is found here:
http://www.rsm.govt.nz/cms/tools-and-services/publications/public-informatio
n-brochures-pibs/pib-23-vhf-and-uhf-mobile-service-bands-in-new-zealand

A couple of thoughts come to mind:

PIB 23 uses the convention of 'Base Transmit' and 'Mobile Transmit' which
makes the data presentation a lot clearer. maybe this convention should be
used in the wiki also? 

When the wiki can be edited and maintained by 'anybody', do you think that
there should be a policy around how this data should be entered and an
explanation for users of the data?

Mark.

If in doubt, check the RSM's PIB 23....

Hi.

In most frequency lists on the Wiki there are both Receive and Transmit
frequencies listed. However there does not seem to be any explanation of
this and if it applies to the mobile or repeater perspective. Is there a
standard way this information can be interpreted or is it just up to whoever
added the data?

Mark.
