Fedcoms aren't my primary target when scanning. I do, however, have some fed
stuff in the scanner. I use a PRO-96 with various different rubber duck type
antennas depending on where I am and what I'm trying to hear.
DEA UHF channels are usually very busy in both the Philly and Allentown metro
areas. I've been copying P25 clear and encrypted (more often the
latter)traffic on:
418.625 - A1 Repeater (Allentown traffic)
418.900 - A2 Repeater (Philly traffic)
418.750 - A3 Repeater (unknown area)
418.950 - A6 Repeater (unknown area)
418.975 - A7 Repeater (unknown area)
416.125 - Philly Office, id'd as Ch. 11
I have the A4 and A5 repeater outputs programmed, but have not copied any
traffic in this area.
Also, for the last few weeks, BATF (presumed) has had surveillance on 166.5375.
The base is P25 clear. I cannot copy the field units (I'm assuming the
operation is working in simplex). Very rarely, I will copy P25 encrypted
traffic on 165.2875 (repeater out).
163.7875 has occassional P25 clear or encrypted traffic. Someone gave this to
me as an FBI frequency. It appears to be a repeater output. Most of the clear
traffic I've heard sounds like it is coming from NJ somewhere (I am in SE PA,
NW of Philadelphia).
