Subject: Indoor antennas
Dear List:
I sent this before, but no answers, and I didn't see it on the list, so I'll
try again....
I have two dilemmas, both are antennas, ones a little OT but someone may have
ideas.
First, the telescoping antenna on the scanner, it's busted, I need a decent
indoor antenna I live in an apartment building, anyone have recommendations?
Second the TV, I decided $49 a month for cable, isn't worth it, not when you
get survivor on 5 channels, the bachelor on another 8 channels something
about recycled Baywatch bimbos on 7 more, and infomercials on the rest.
However for the occassional half hour when there is something decent on, like
a Leafs game, it would be nice it if you could actually see the puck for all
the snow. Do those powered TV antennas work? Looks like a neat concept, but
not sure it would work. Anyone have any recommendations here?

Subject: FRS1 being used by a construction crew?
I have programmed the FRS channels into my PRO-95 and am scanning them as
well as the police, fire, ambulance and airports as I write. Today I have
been bombarded by traffic on FRS1 from a construction crew somewhere in my
neighbourhood. As I am just north of Sheppard on Yonge, there is a lot of
condo building going on around here and therefore a number of close
construction sites.
Is anyone aware of NON-FRS frequencies close enough to FRS1 to be picked up
as the FRS1 frequency by a PRO-95? If there isn't any, has FRS1 also been
assigned out by IC for other uses?
Just wondering... since I do NOT believe FRS is intended for use in
Construction...

FRS is being used by everyone, the radios are cheap when compared to a business band radio,
you can drop them and they still work, if it does die who cares its a $50 or so replacement
where a business band radio could be what $500 and up?
Not to much you can do about it except call Industry Canada and complain but doubt they
will do anything about it.

FRS1 (462.5625) was formerly a low-power channel and many of the old users
have not cleared off yet. Security at the Sussex Center in Mississauga are
still there in my area.
Besides that, all kinds of business users are on FRS. Radioworld uses it
for in-store comms as do many other stores.

Thanks, Michael
I suspected that this was a low-power channel and therefore a user of the
channel, rather than a user of FRS. You basically confirmed that.
I know that all kinds of business users are using FRS, but I rarely hear
them using it. FRS is basically relatively quiet here at Sheppard and
Yonge. Thus the question about usage by someone doing construction.
Actually the main use is controlling the crane and its bucket/load, which is
more typically a low power channel...

As an owner of various FRS radios I have to admit there are
construction crews and building landlords/supers on FRS1. The most
predominant chatter is a very annoying guy with a high, very loud
voice that at times uses the F-word. It sounds like they are
constantly loading something into something else. Most of the
annoying guy is in the moring commute between 8 and 9. I can hear
this guy pretty much anywhere from York Mills and Vic Park to
Dufferin and Wilson.

Nope - FRS is totally legal to use for businesses. Many businesses use

Subject: Re: Indoor antennas
Interior antennas... hmm... at one time Radio Shack sold a mag-mount
mobile scanner antenna. Perhaps something like that would do the
trick; stick it on a filing cabinet or some other piece of metal for
a ground plane and it should work. I had one for my car and the
performance wasn't too bad. Plus, since you're in an apartment you
(potentially) have height in your favour.
For powered tv antennas I currently have one installed in my attic
and it works quite well. It's the "flying saucer" type and receives
most Buffalo channels from 25 feet up (and within the confines of
asphalt-shingled wood). I currently have Star Choice but installed
the antenna to allow taping of shows off-air while still watching the
dish, and vice-versa.
Good luck!

Being in the industry, I can say FRS are used all over the place in
construction. I've been on a few sites where plumbers are on channel 1,
electricians channel 2, etc etc. Might not be the proper use for the
radios, but they sure fit the bill.

The IC regs are identical to the FCC regs, and they do allow for business use of FRS. As well, FRS is marketed at businesses as a low-cost radio solution. We use them in TV and video production quite a bit, too.
AS well, there are still some licenced users of the FRS frequenies that still exist. There is a store security business I pick up on FRS1 clear as a bell from my apartment. The key to not being interfered with is using PL tones.. atl east until little Johnny or some idiot with his FRS toy interferes with a licenced user (one of the reasons I was against FRS in Canada).

This is called poor parenting. Kids who are idiotic with FRS have
parents who are idiotic with their kids. If Johnny can't learn to
use FRS as a kid, imagine what he will be like as an adult. Probably
the next Prime Minister. In any case, listening to FRS is rather
uninteresting. People in malls or stores, convoys. Not a whole lot
going. Then you get kids, F-this, F-that. You know, 12 year olds
with 5 year old maturity. Unfortunately, like CB, we may lose the
viability of FRS IF this continues.

Subject: Re: FRS1 being used by a construction crew?
While I agree that listening to FRS is boring, I am trying to determine how
much usage it is getting, and based on what I have heard in this area
(Sheppard and Yonge) today, it is getting virtually NO usage other than by
that one construction crew on FRS1. I have heard one brief use of FRS5 and
that, other than FRS1, is it. That leads me to believe that it is NOT
selling well in this area of seniors and condos where few kids roam... Of
course, time will tell, but for now the short time result is almost no usage
that I have picked up...

Yeah.. from my vantage point I have the advantage of being able to pick up signals from father away than being on the ground.. FRS is pretty much being used as a toy or business use from what I can hear. You do hear the occasional family use "Come home for dinner, Johnny", especially during events like the ex. You do also get a few "Is anyone out there?" people, its kind of fun talking to people.
It depends on the area, but FRS can be interesting to listen to, especially with people who don't get the whole PL tone thing "Wow! Privacy channels! No one can hear us!"

So far Pickering and Ajax have switched operations to the old Oshawa
Trunking system.
The list on trunkedradio.net seems accurate for Ajax but Pickering
seems to be doing all their radio traffic on Uniden 2160. 2160 is
listed as Tac 2 for Pickering. Who knows, maybe it is tac 2 but I
haven't heard reference to the channel yet.

A couple of guys around me( that should know better) decided to program an in-between freq into their 70 cm rigs. They seem to think it's private too. The freq isn't licensed around here so their use of it likely doesn't bother anyone except that they wipe out the FRS freqs on either side of it.

If you know what you want, the RS store on Finch (south side) west of
Dufferin in yea old city of North York has old RS antennas in the back
room... Some go back to the 70s and are Archer brand. CB, Whip, etc. Some
are mag mount, too. If you have no idea what you are looking for, however,
do not bother. Saw one antenna there today that covered 10 mHz to 512 mHz
and looked to be over 5 feet long in its box, but I have no idea what kind
of mount it required, or if it was purely designed to go on a mast, or could
be car mounted, etc... but then I could be nuts :-)

This is in regards to Bob FRS post.
You might as well add these GMRS frequencies to you list of FRS. FRS
channels 8 to 14 are still valid FRS only frequencies. These
frequencies are found in my Audiovox GMRS 2000 base radio along with
7 NOAA (Weather Radio Canada) and 3 Canadian marine channels with a

full 2 watt output with a BNC connector antaean.
