STA Buses Sydney south

Post by Mike Alpha » Mon Sep 01, 2008 6:49 pm

Anyone know what radio system the STA Buses use in the Southern suburbs?

The city and northern areas are well covered by the STA conventional repeater sites, but the licenses on ACMA for STA buses shows only one site in the south at the Kingsgrove bus depot. The Kingsgrove depot site is in a bit of a hole and would not give coverage beyond Kingsgrove itself.

I've heard they might be on a commercial trunking system. Anyone?

Funny enough, I got it a few days ago. They are using 485.600Mhz which is on the Sydney Tower site. I heard buses from Kingsgrove and Rockdale call up on it. The channel seems to cover the east and south regions.
