Thanks for the update Kevin. I haven't heard Alpha before, but Hotel
and Tango were just on the radio moments ago on UHF.

I believe I heard the same and if memory serves, they were off to Bancroft

7796 and 7795 you will hear ALL OVER the province. They do the long distance, 
non-emerg transfers. Them and the contract carriers (names like Thunder Air, 
Air Muskoka, etc). My girlfriend was a medic for Air Muskoka for awhile and 
she made it into Quebec, Ohio, Tennessee, New York, etc, etc, etc.

I keep hearing about people having trouble with this but have yet to 
find any documented rules regarding photography on TTC property that 
cover situations other than commercial photography. In other words, I 
haven't been able to find any written rules against personal 
photography.
Sorry, I guess this is getting off topic. I'll stop now. ;)

The TTC bylaw states in section 16b
"No person shall operate for commercial purposes any camera, video 
recording device, movie camera, or any similar device upon any vehicle 
or premises of the Commission without authorization."
Looks like it is only limited to commercial ventures.
If i were to go into the subway and take photos, Whose responsibility 
is it to prove that i am not doing it for commercial purposes if the 
goons decide to harass me?

Subject: Re: Taking photos of subways?
I can't comment on the Toronto system, but I know in Boston, MA your
required to have a MBTA photo permit for taking photo's.  IT is very easy
to get.  I suspect you might need the same sort of thing to take pictures
in Toronto.  This at least gives the transit folks some control over who
is taking pictures, and a list to go down if there are questions needing
to be answered.

Kevin...what all are the air units used for. I know for transport from seen
to hospital and hospital to hospital...but last week I heard one of the air
units on 129.2750 [I can't remember what unit exactly] but they were flying
from "toronto center and were estimating Whichitaw Kansas for refueling for
the last leg of there journey" They even fly to the US?

Kevin,
Looking at basehospital.com I noticed a helicopter based out of North Bay as well. What is the ID on that one?
They also mention the use of satellite phones, would this be possible while in the air, or are we safe in knowing that they will always be on 413.6875, 129.275, and 150.100?

  If you have an HF rig:
  Trenton Military is on 11.230 usb
  U.S. on 11.175 usb.
  Given the post 9/11 atmosphere most military trans. might be
  encrypted.
  There is a book you can by called " Canadian Military Radio Frequency Guide "
  by Robert S. Ing. Right now I cannot remember where I got mine from.
  Possibly from Haruteg ?

   Several years back (maybe closer to ten) I recall an MSAT
promotional showing an Ontario air ambulance using their
equipment on board small aircraft in the far north...patch
antenna on one of the side windows. It was a trial at the
time so they may or may not use it currently. Airborne
satcom makes a lot of sense in these circumstances.

Not really totally Bryan. Steve has said that he will allow some leeway. You did hear the comm on your scanner in ON right? The rest is just curiosity resulting in a request for more information and you got it.

if you insisted on help, they'd usually tell you security would meet you at

I went to the basehospital website ... and saw that now. I just got off the phone with North Bay CACC, to their knowledge there isn't one there although they would love to have it. They didn't even know if this is a future possibility, but I'll check into that myself.
Also, on the website they list their types of communications and they include sat phones as well as cellular phones.
And finally, they do have the capability of going onto the Toronto and Mississauga systems I do believe. I know they've got more than just PCOM to communicate. London 7792 has a London channel and 7798 has Sudbury. So they can be on more than just PCOM and those other two frequencies you list.

  Kevin,
  Looking at basehospital.com I noticed a helicopter based out of North Bay as well. What is the ID on that one?
  They also mention the use of satellite phones, would this be possible while in the air, or are we safe in knowing that they will always be on 413.6875, 129.275, and 150.100?

The issue of worrying never came up. The fact of the matter is this: it 
must be some sort of big deal with the TTC these days - the dispatcher 
did send a supervisor out to the station due to 'someone taking photos 
of trains'.
And now that you mention it, well yeah - twenty years is more than 
enough time for a 'major, major shift' to take place.

The TTC has a policy that you cannot take photographs on TTC property for commercial purposes without permission.
Having said that, there's NOTHING stopping you from taking pictures on TTC property for PERSONAL use, as long as you DO NOT use a flash.
I've never had an issue with it.  My ex has literally hundreds of pictures of subways and streetcars and has never been harassed..  Just tell them you are a transit-fan, and you'll be fine.
