Hopefully its still a while off here.
Hey Mark, did the Bega LGA ever get upgraded to P25, I never heard?

Hi all,
Nope still analog, heard it when i went thru there during the week. I think the Vote to the south of Eden has gone though.
Cheers

I have tried to listen to Timbillica tower (468.7750) and I can't hear anything, not sure if it is down or its the weather conditions as I think I used to be able to hear that frequency.
I will keep an ear out though and let you know if I hear anything.

Thanks Mark, were you trying to pick it up with an 'analog-only' setting, it if has gone over to P25, that might explain why you're not hearing anything?

G'day all,
Last time i was down i heard Z3 CH D064 (469.425) in digital. From what i can remember that was from down near the vic border, however i didnt get close to Eden to hear Ch45 (468.925) which i thought was on the same vote. I could hear that from Mumbulla Mtn

The scanner was set right, I tried a couple of different ones as the 996 tends to be a bit deaf. I will try again today.
I will also try the other freqs, I scanned through the police channels I have programmed in and only got CH 55 from Brown Mountain and CH 50 from Peak Alone digital. I will hold on the other two just to be sure.

The furthest south freq I could listen to was Eden police station, it is still analogue.
