I was made aware of this about a week ago but I never got around to posting it
The frequencies for the Motorway Operations Centre for the new M5 Tunnel have been posted on the ACMA
Under the Telco GRN banner it will utilise DMR (7K60FXE) for comms with road crews

422.2500, 422.5000, 423.5000, 424.0000

They were testing last tuesday the following frequencies assigned to M5 East at Kingsgrove.
464.225
464.9625
466.4375
466.875
Colour code: 3 on all channels
CAP+
TGID: 101,102,103,104,105,106,107,108,109,110
When they switched to channel 1 talkgroup ID 101 came up when they switched to channel 2 talkgroup 102 came up so this went all the way to channel 10 (TGID: 110).

I'd say those frequencies are incorrectly marked as 7K60FXE because the same frequencies are used throughout the various new tunnels for GRN sites.

https://web.acma.gov.au/rrl/licence_sea ... RT_DIR=asc

The new frequencies freqwaves has listed must be for the new tunnel operation road crew use.

A listing error in the ACMA database? That wouldn't happen would it?
