Tas Fire Service -May have been trialing the system at one stage.

 

 

 

Listening InTo Encrypted Transmissions

 

We have had the odd emails asking how to, or if it is possible to, decode Encrypted Digital Transmissions on the EDACS Network, and even some insisting that a friend of a friend said it was possible, or that 'Joe Bloggs' down at the local pub has heard it first hand, let us just set the record straight here and now, no it is impossible, and never will be possible, to decode Encrypted Digital Transmissions on your scanner or by any computer programme what so ever, period!!

 

 

 

Important Note On Trunking:

 

Below you will find frequencies for each EDACS site in Tasmania that we are aware of, please take note that the frequencies are listed in the proper LCN (Logical Channel Number) order, this has to be followed exactly as listed here when programming up your scanner, even if the order seems strange or not in order, the LCN is vital in making sure your scanner trunks the network properly.

LEGEND:

 

Tx = Transmitting Analogue Only

TxD - Transmitting - Digital Encrypted Capable

 

Frequencies marked in bold are not presently active at the time of this update, but have been known to be active in the past, you should still program them in as active LCN's in the correct order shown in case they do become active once again.

 

Note: Where a site is listed as TxD, a mix of both Analogue & Encrypted Digital calls can be expected. Tas Police Service is the most common user. Once again Encrypted Digital calls can not be decoded by digital scanner or computer programme.

 

List Current as of 18-10-2010

 

 

All frequencies are in MHz & FM mode unless otherwise stated.
