Sydney area Taxis
Posted: Thu Oct 13, 2011 3:37 pm
This is a list I have been working on a while
There are several omissions particularly those taxi companies on VHF and UHF MPT trunking.
I did make some attempt 3-4 years ago to work out who was who on MPT, but got distracted and never finished it
Also over the years i have heard a number of taxi companies on the fringe urban area eg Springwood Taxis, another taxi company at Bowral and even a taxi company at Richmond operating off the Vertel 500Mhz MPT1327 system at Kurrajong Heights
I will add these when i put my finger on my notes and confirm the frequency, CTCSS tone and that they are still operating
A word of warning however - these "fringe" operator frequently use the interconnect facility with the public telephone system to take incoming calls
One should cease listening at that point.
(Before anybody starts up on the subject I think we have recently exhausted the discussion of the matter elsewhere)
Obviously I would appreciate feedback on CTCSS voice or data information for any frequencies you can hear in your locale.
Several of the sites i cannot hear due to my geographical location (mostly in the Blacktown area)
