151.595 (DPL 315) Multicare Hospital (TG?) Security

450.6875 (141.3) Metro Traffic planes/helos/remote broadcasts (old, but reconfirmed)

155.400 (67.0) Western State Hospital, Lakewood- security

Add 451.5375, Greenwood Communications, LTR LCN 01. Status burst comes very often compared to other LTR systems I've heard.

Idle message has traditionally been spaced on LTR systems at 10 seconds. However there is nothing wrong with increasing / decreasing time between idle messages, or even eliminating it in some cases.

Passport traditionally spaces at 3 seconds, as much more info is being sent, however I know of a few Passport systems that leave it on continuously. It is not wise to increase spacing of Passport idle message, again due to the amount of info (and rotation of info) being sent.

I counted it at about 8, but it could be 10.

Not Weyerhaeuser, per our discussion.

Ive spaced mine out to the maximum allowable by the controllers to avoid interference to other licensed users of the frequencies I use...

I believe its 5 or 10 minutes...

My users never have problems getting a channel so I have to assume these bursts are not really that important on a single site system... I did talk with the manufacture of the controllers years ago when we did this but forget what they said.

Passport systems use it to tell the radio its still in an area so I can see the reason for it there...

Is Greenwood a Passport system? I've never actually heard any traffic on the system.

I believe Olympic Radio has a few licenses that are no longer or never were used.

If you are able to decode any LTR anything (LCN, area bit etc...) then no, not Passport.

Listen to old Microsoft UHF channels, you will hear Passport idle messages around there, they have gone all Passport.

464.900 (D226) Emerald Queen Casino (no idea whether Tacoma or Fife)

461.400 (D156) EQC, as above

151.070 (CSQ) Used for Wa State Ferries, but this was two truckers speaking Hindi on I-5. Possibly Central Route Transport out of Kamloops, BC; they haul logs and tree stuff.

451.600 (118.8 ) Simpson Kraft timber, at Port of Tacoma

464.575 (D411) Northwest Detention Center, Tacoma

452.3625 (88.5) Emerald Queen again

461.9375 (156.7) EQC again

461.2125 (CSQ) Repeater, sounded like tugboats on Commencement Bay

462.075 (186.2) Unk

I've heard them on both...There's a list floating around somewhere that has them in it, along with the Marine channels.

Doesn't WSDOT also use that freq for crossband operations in the passes?

The crossband patch has been hit and miss. I used to hear them on 156.120 but not lately.
