Hertz Rental Cars on Ross Smith Drive, Mascot (Airport) are using MTP850's. Both at their office near the control tower and booth at the terminals.

I think the following are Moto Turbo channels,please confirm Grant.

487.750

Thanks, John.

500.2625 is site 150 off gpt (grn)
U also have a cc on 500.000 and 500.8625 from memory (airwave solutions)

487.750 is the mastercom m-trunk system

503.2750 is a Motorola Rental frequency .... I heard it a couple of weekends back
The DMR decoder just confirmed it as a TRBO system but not much else

I suspect that Mastercoms will be taking over the Metwide licences following Lee's passing
Why do I think that?
Collected from the DMR Decoder

505.5125 TRBO - Master Communications & Electronics - Homebush Bay
Connect Plus Trunking System
Network 1 Site 4
=============================================
505.6000 TRBO - Metwide Communications - Tx North Sydney
Connect Plus Trunking System
Network 1 Site 5
=============================================
507.6250 TRBO - Master Communications & Electronics – Horsley Park

As I said I am still working on an update - have more confirmed TRBO to add

You need to know the network's colour code, timeslot and talkgroup ID, you can't just park it on a frequency and listen to everything.

Enhanced Privacy (ie, RC4 crypto) is likely to prove popular, seeing as it's standard on MOTOTRBO gear. Westfield Woden in Canberra are using one of the MOTOTRBO privacy options for everyone, including the cleaners.
