[Scan-DC] Can Anyone ID these Control Channels?

[Andy Long]

Thanks Mark.  That frequency was definitely a missing link for me.  I'd like
to know why that freq is not listed anywhere?  Am I mistaken?  I can't find
it listed anywhere on the major web sites:  Bearcat.com, Trunktraker.com,
TrunkedRadio.net, etc. I have a feeling it was posted by Rich McVicar either
here or over on TrunkCom when he posted the new TRS license messages. I
must've deleted it.

Anyone have any ideas if HoCo will program a privately bought HT for
monitoring only, like what was propsed to Fairfax County, VA a while back? I
shot an email over to the chief in charge of communications for HoCo, but
have yet to hear a response after about 2 weeks now.

Is HoCo's new digital TRS truely a VSELP system? It seems odd that they
would purchase an older version of a digital TRS for a new comm system by
Motorola.  I don't think the new Uniden digi-scanners will track it
digitally, because its not Project-25, right?

Thanks again,

Andy
