[TheList] Trunking

Fri Feb 9 08:15:22 AEDT 2018

Hey ya. 

Honestly following all the Akaroa requests and answers over the last few
weeks it sounds like Akaroa is in a black hole for RF and Scanning.. 
The amount of traffic that would exist there sounds like its only when
something is happening there........ 
Perfect place for listening and transmitting HF though..  

I guess an IP remote controlled scanner in a better location streaming
(encrypted and private) over the internet might be a better option if
you want to listen to Anything.

If it was the control channel you wouldn't hear any voice as it sounds like a machine gun and is solely a data channel gives the channel grants. Unfortunately there is no commercial scanner available that can trunktrack MPT1327. You can use a program like Unitrunker with the DVB-T dongle that you purchased but as far as your 996T goes it won't follow the conversations.

They operate on the Ex Police Analog Central Canterbury Channel. The frequency for that will be around 75mhz. Best time to find out would be when they have been turned out. Once you find it you will hear almost zero police chatter on it as its only used for visiting units to the district that don't have a digital radio installed in their vehicle and you will only hear fire appliances from the Central and North Canterbury areas that have been turned out and responding to incidents.
