lets do a followup 10 years later the most likely scenario imho was that 153.89 was used to relay traffic from 158.85 back to the dispatch center
the only problem would be that a portable radio on 158.85 would need to be stronger into the remote receiver site than the signal from the dispatcher on 158.85 into the remote receiver site - (if the portable needed to shout over the dispatcher in an emergency situation) - otherwise the system would work great and there would be no need for portables to manually switch to 166.25 when in a dead spot on 158.85 On Tue, Aug 13, 2013 at 12:20 PM Peter S <[email protected]> wrote: > > 153.89 - PL 91.5 - some radio test heard at 820 AM today > > first some guy sang 1 or 2 notes from the Jaws theme > > then these units were called by some guy - Rescue - Charlie - Alpha - Sierra > > just the dispatcher was heard - the reply were not heard > > it almost sounded like 153.89 was a simplex base station connected by > maybe a UHF link to some dispatch center > > ?????????? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
