Subject: Ottawa River Marine Freqs.
Although this is a complete list of frequencies for marine traffic (
http://www.ccg-gcc.gc.ca/cen-arc/mcts-sctm/vhf_e.htm ). Is there anything on
the Ottawa River up through the valley that I could possibly look out for.
Haven't really thought about monitoring for this type of activity, sure it's
really cold in March right now, but I thought I'd try and get ahead of the
game here.
As soon as the weather clears, I'm putting up an outdoor antenna to pull in
some stronger distance signals.
One's thing for certain, I don't live on the river system, but a few miles
from there, would I be able to even listen to anything on the river.

The drawback is no logging unless its been updated. Trunkstar780 logs,but is harder to use and may have some bugs. Also TS780 allows audio recording to hard drive which ARC780 doesn't support. Most claim the ARC780 has far superior tech support. There should be demos of both programs out there.

I've cut off everything from Lake Superior north and now it just shows zones one and two. Originally it was sized to print from a plotter as a wall map and this option is still available if anyone wants it. I have resized it to fit landscape on an 8.5 x 11.0 paper and it is much smaller in file size. I've also removed the freqs as they are available as updates elsewhere so what I need now is help with is the sites. Are all of the zone one sites listed at trunkedradio now active? Could anyone post which ones aren't? I assume none of the zone two size have finished testing. Thanks, J. "Just watch me."

As for the frequencies, I'd leave them off the map as they still seem to be building the system and adding new frequencies. The site numbers and maybe a list of numbers & site names would be good.

These days, a scout unit seems to refer to the standard divisional marked car with uniformed occupants. At the risk of showing my age, that term was in use in Toronto for over 30 years. I think it might date from the days when very few marked cars other than traffic cars had a red light, but it was never clear to me whether "scout" meant a marked/light equipped car versus the standard unmarked sedan. The term "Cruiser" used to mean an unmarked traffic car. (Anybody out there remember those old two-door Plymouth sedans with the slanted headlights?

But it seems to me that (and I could be wrong) that a scout car was a one man unit, thus a scout??? Could be wrong.
