<hr />
<div>All radios of the MPSCS poses a 7 digit radio ID number following a standard format as shown below.<br />
'''XYYZZZZ'''<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
'''X''' is the [[Zone Number]]<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
'''YY''' is the County Number. If the radio is a dispatch console then 00 is displayed.<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
'''ZZZZ''' is the individual radio ID. Odd numbers are mobile radios. Even numbers are portable radios.<br />
<br><br />
This section can also be broken down even further.<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
0001-2999 - State agencies <br />
<br><br />
3000-8999 - County and local agencies (County Sheriff Departments, Fire Departments, Local Police Departments, EMS, Public Works, etc)<br />
<br><br />
9000-9899 - Federal agencies<br />
<br><br />
9900-9999 - base stations<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
'''Some Examples'''<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
'''2001051''' is a dispatch console<br />
<br><br />
'''2630080''' is a portable radio used by a state agency in Oakland County<br />
<br><br />
'''2473151''' is a mobile radio used by a county or local agency in Livingston County<br />
<br><br />
'''1359989''' is a base station used by an agency in Iosco County<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
<br />
== City of Detroit Radio ID Numbers ==<br />
The IDs of the radios used by the city of Detroit follow a slightly different format.<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
'''7YYZZZZ'''<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
'''YY''' This can be broken down as follows.<br />
<br><br />
00 - Dispatch Consoles<br />
<br><br />
01 - Detroit Fire Department and other city departments (DPW, Water and Sewer, Transportation etc.)<br />
<br><br />
02 - Detroit Police Department<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
'''ZZZZ''' Once again odd numbers are mobile radios and even numbers are portable radios<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
'''Some Examples'''<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
'''7000715''' is a dispatch console<br />
<br><br />
'''7017005''' is a fire or misc city agency mobile radio<br />
<br><br />
'''7022842''' is a police portable radio<br />

==Making the Connection==<br />
A major difference from other scanners is that the connection to the PC is made via USB, and not a serial cable. The RS scanners do not supply <br />
this cable as part of the accessories, but there are places to obtain them. Please see the [[Connecting scanners via USB]] article for tips<br />
on installation and common problems and resolution.<br />

==Making the Connection==<br />
A major difference from other scanners is that the connection to the PC is made via USB, and not a serial cable. The RS scanners do not supply <br />
this cable as part of the accessories, but there are places to obtain them. Please see the [[Connecting scanners via USB]] article for tips<br />
on installation and common problems and resolution.<br />

== Known Issues ==<br />
<br />
* We've received some reports that users when loading the CD-ROM for the first time get an error message such as:<br />
<br />
Error=>Table 'cdrom_rrdb.country_list' doesn't exist<br />
<br />
or<br />
<br />
Error=>Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (10061)<br />
<br />
If you receive this error message, check and try the following:<br />
<br />
** Make sure you aren't running any security software that might block the application from copying files to your computer.<br />
<br />
** Be patient when loading the CD-ROM for the first time. It takes about 1 minute (longer on some machines) for the CD-ROM to copy files to your hard drive. If you interrupt this process you may experience the above message and have to clean up your temp files.<br />
<br />
** Clean out your TEMP files, reboot, and try to load the CD-ROM again. To clear out temp files, open My Computer and Right-Click on your C Drive and choose properties. Then click the “Disk Cleanup” button. Check the box “Temporary Files” and then choose OK. Make sure you check “Temporary Files” and not “Temporary Internet Files” - then click OK to run the disk cleanup. Then '''reboot'''. and go ahead and try to rerun the CD-ROM.<br />
<br />
== Tips and Tricks ==<br />
<br />
=== Running the CD-ROM from the hard drive ===<br />
* If you want to run the CD-ROM locally on your machine without having to insert the disc each time you need to access the content, simply copy the entire CD-ROM contents to a folder on your hard drive and execute the "RunCD.exe" file in the folder. <br />

Description<br />
<br />
The Pro-106 is manufactured for Radio Shack by GRE America Inc.<br />
<br />
The Radio Shack is a Digital Trunk Tracking scanner which boasts the ability to track APCO 25 digital trunking systems, in addition to following Motorola type I/II systems, LTR and EDACS trunking systems. It is very similar to the GRE [[PSR-500]].<br />
<br />
The Pro-106 is functionally identical to the [[PSR-500]] and uses the same [[Radio Control Software|radio control software]] and [http://www.starrsoft.com/software/Win96/Cables/cables.html scanner cables]. Firmware updates are NOT compatiable between this radio and the GRE PSR-500 though.<br />

* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_oriented Object oriented memory management]. Talkgroups can be associated with a single system. Systems can be defined as multi-site for statewide and networked systems. Talkgroups can be members of multiple scan lists. There are "Scan Lists" where you group the objects you wish for scanning. You do not need to enter frequency or talkgroup info more than once as you can just use those "objects" in the scan lists as you desire.<br />
** You navigate objects in MAN mode: Just use the Arrow Keys. Up/Down scrolls within a scan list, and Left/Right scrolls to change scan lists. You can also just type the Object number and press ENT. Also in PGM mode, there is a FIND option and you type Alpha/Numeric (partial or full) and it will search the number and text fields in every object and let you choose to monitor (MAN), or press NEXT (Softkey) to keep FIND-ing, or EDIT to edit the found object.<br />
** Hold: You can pause while scanning, or now the MAN mode is fully trunking so you can just "FIND" on some Conventional, Search, or Talkgroup, Sweeper, alpha or number data, and then press MAN.<br />
* Built in discriminator data output in simple ASCII output using the PC/IF port<br />
* Full duplex support and USB connection using the [http://www.greamerica.com/scanner_accessories.html GRE 30-3290 ]([http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2177609 RS #20-047]) USB Scanner Data Manager Cable. (Not included)<br />
* Object programmable LED; eight factory default colors to any color / brilliance you want by having direct access to the R-G-B drive values (including flash) to assign to talkgroups, frequencies, agencies, etc.<br />
** LATCH option; the color of the last received object stays on until reset.<br />
* Motorola Smartzone systems<br />
** Scanner option to look for the site with the best received CC decode rate.<br />
(Not the same as RSSI on the Motorola rigs, but similar in operation.)<br />
* Favorites Scan List; create a scan list tailored to your favorite object settings.<br />
One button operation to get to this set.<br />
* [[Signal Stalker]] Near field frequency capture<br />
* Triple conversion<br />
* [[Rebanding]] supported? <font color=green> YES </font> <br />
** See the bottom of the [[Win96]] page for the values to be set in the trunking tables<br />
* Virtual Scanner Memory Management system; One copy of working memory can hold up to 1800 objects, meaning any combination of talkgroups, conventional channels, and trunking systems. Each V-Scanner folder holds one copy of working memory. So, 21 * 1800 = about 37,800 objects altogether can be stored in the V-Scanner storage system.<br />
** The V-Scanners work like the [[Pro-96|Radio Shack PRO-96]] in that they store the radio's working memory (settings, frequencies etc.) to a separate area of internal memory. The radio's main memory is no longer banks/channels, but "objects". The Scan lists are now how you group the objects for scanning and you toggle them on/off with the traditional method of pressing the number keys during scanning. The arrow keys do not page through the V-Scanners. The V-Scanner function is in a separate menu much like the Radio Shack PRO-96.<br />
** When creating a talk-group object, you associate the talkgroup-object with the system object. The system-object has all the control channel information and is only entered once. Scan lists can have pointers to talkgroup-objects such as Fire, EMS, Police. As you create the talkgroup-objects you can assign them to any number of scanlists while you create them. You can also edit the scanlists later. You only create a system-object once, and associate multiple talkgroup-objects with it. Then the talkgroup-objects can be pointed to any number of scanlists (including none if you want to temporarily just set aside the talkgoup, but not delete it). If a talkgroup-object points to a system-object the paused talkgroup will stay synced up with the entire system over multiple control channels.<br />
* Preprogrammed for most major metropolitan areas<br />
* Scan rate 60 CPS<br />
* Search speed 90 CPS<br />
* User defined service search and limit search<br />
* Direct Tune mode<br />
* TCXO for frequency stability<br />
* Default Option keys; return to default setting for any menu<br />
* Digital [[AGC]]<br />
* Adaptive digital tracking (ADT)<br />
* Digital signal processing (DSP)<br />
* [[Continuous Tone-Coded Squelch System|CTCSS]]/[[DCS]] abilities<br />
* [[NAC|Network Access Code]] can be programmed to only break squelch when receiving the correct NAC in a conventional P25 system.<br />
* 16-character alpha-tagging with text entry can show ID code or service name<br />
* L/O talkgroup ID or frequency<br />
* ID delay<br />
* UNSQUELCH Delay; Delay settings before the radio unmutes audio to speaker<br />
* Motorola [[Control Channel Only]] trunking<br />
* I-Calls, possibly displayed as hex as mentioned at Dayton Hamvention 07'<br />
* 700MHz and 380MHz Trunk Scanning<br />
**The trunking "object" includes a "VHF/UHF" selection, and you can put in all of the offset/base etc. It also has a full trunking table capability for each trunking object (with plenty of entry slots!). As far as I can tell there is no freq limitation on trunking like the Pro-96 had. So you enter the data in the trunking object, and it will tune to any freq (except cellular of course).<br />
* Easy-to-read back lit control and display with back lit keypad<br />
* 6 search ranges/ 1 user definable search range<br />
* Search "seek" feature<br />
* Tunes virtually all important bands—local marine, fire/police, Ham, CB, VHF-air, UHF-Air, racing, weather and more<br />
* Weather band with enhanced [[SAME]] Weather Alert functions and weather priority—access weather channels and alerts with the push of a button<br />
* Skywarn can be programmed with any number of "objects"<br />
* "Multiple" Priority channels<br />
* Zeromatic search tuning<br />
* 20 dB [[attenuator]]<br />
* Computer interface and Programming (with computer control)<br />
* 3 function keys; softkeys, that when pressed, execute the function that is shown just above the key in the display<br />
* 5 way navigation keys to access special modes and programming options<br />
* 4 line x 16 character display with relative signal strength meter<br />
* Display of the Radio ID of the transmitting user<br />
* Mobile/base design with DIN-E in-dash mounting (requires separate installation kit for your vehicle)<br />
*BNC connector<br />
* A '''cloning cable''' may be fabricated using 2 - 1/8 inch stereo jacks and shielded cable. Note: Make sure the radios used for cloning are not set to output control channel data or they will not clone. PGM, Fun+Glob (F3), then pressing the Func+down arrow and then the up arrow once, press the right arrow once to YES, then (F1) to Save. <br />
<br />
*'''Verifying the firmware version'''<br />
<br />
You can verify the version of DSP firmware currently active in the Pro-106 by pressing the 3 key during<br />
the "Welcome" screen.<br />
<br />
Future firmware upgrades can be installed by downloading and running an upgrade program from the Radio Shack web site.<br />
<br />

==Operating Tips==<br />
<br />
* Activate/Deactivate Scan Lists: Sets membership in Scan Lists. Use left and right keys to scroll through Scan Lists. Use SEL key to toggle Scan List membership. A “*” next to the Scan List number indicates that the object is mapped to that Scan List.<br />
<br />
* Default Scanlist: When programming an object, select the scan list using the menu or the default scan list one will be used. To return an object to your selected scanlist, set the default the the scanlist to the number you want. To return an object to the default during EDIT or NEW press Dflt.<br />
<br />
* Dupe function: To repeat commonly used object attributes, use the Dupe function. <br />
<br />
* Object access: To go to an object, press MAN or PGM and the object number, then press E to goto the object.<br />
<br />
* Force Analog: If you have a CONV object that you know is analog, You can set the object to tone search to force it as analog.<br />
<br />
* Force Digital: If you have a CONV object (or trunked) that you know is digital, you can force it as digital by forcing it to search for P25 NAC.<br />
<br />
* Flex Step: "Super Expert Setting Menu". PGM, FUNC F3:GLOB Scroll down to "flexStep" and Rt-Arrow it to "On" F1:Save<br />
<br />
* Audio Boost: Expert menu, AudioBoost, On or OFF, Applies a 6 dB boost to audio levels when the object is active<br />
<br />
* Delete Alpha Characters during entry: Func + CL will delete all the characters in a line. Use the "." (decimal) key to delete a character and make a blank space.<br />
<br />
* Battery Settings: Change the battery setting in the Global menu: Alkaline, NiCad, or NiMIH, to set the proper battery warnig levels for the battery type you are using.<br />
<br />
* Quick Menu Move: Func + Up or Down will move to the top or bottom of a menu.<br />
<br />
* Go directly to a newly saved conventional object: Press MAN right after pressing "Stor" in the search, you'll be taken right to the CONV object you just stored.<br />
<br />
* Object Search: If you press manual, you can then scroll through the scanlist (the default save to, is scanlist 1) with the up/down arrows. You can also use the Find feature. press Program, Edit, Find enter a alpha text or frequency. And you can find it by object type by pressing Program, Edit, press left or right key to select the object type, such as CONV, the the up down arrow to select the conventional object.<br />
<br />
* Signal Strength Meter Settings: A setting of 470-750, provides a more relative indication of signal bars than the default range.<br />
<br />
* EDACS Narrow: For some systems, the control channel data may need to be inverted. Once the EDACS narrow system is created, arrow down to the "Expert Below" section until you see "Invert Data: No", arrow right or left to display "Yes", press Save (F1) to save changes. <br />

* Virtual Scanner Memory Management system; One copy of working memory can hold up to 1800 objects, meaning any combination of talkgroups, conventional channels, and trunking systems. Each V-Scanner folder holds one copy of working memory. So, 21 * 1800 = about 37,800 objects altogether can be stored in the V-Scanner storage system.<br />
** The V-Scanners work like the [[Pro-96|Radio Shack PRO-96]] in that they store the radio's working memory (settings, frequencies etc.) to a separate area of internal memory. The radio's main memory is no longer banks/channels, but "objects". The Scan lists are now how you group the objects for scanning and you toggle them on/off with the traditional method of pressing the number keys during scanning. The arrow keys do not page through the V-Scanners. The V-Scanner function is in a separate menu much like the Radio Shack PRO-96.<br />
** When creating a talk-group object, you associate the talkgroup-object with the system object. The system-object has all the control channel information and is only entered once. Scan lists can have pointers to talkgroup-objects such as Fire, EMS, Police. As you create the talkgroup-objects you can assign them to any number of scanlists while you create them. You can also edit the scanlists later. You only create a system-object once, and associate multiple talkgroup-objects with it. Then the talkgroup-objects can be pointed to any number of scanlists (including none if you want to temporarily just set aside the talkgoup, but not delete it). If a talkgroup-object points to a system-object the paused talkgroup will stay synced up with the entire system over multiple control channels.<br />

==Operating Tips==<br />
<br />
* Activate/Deactivate Scan Lists: Sets membership in Scan Lists. Use left and right keys to scroll through Scan Lists. Use SEL key to toggle Scan List membership. A “*” next to the Scan List number indicates that the object is mapped to that Scan List.<br />
<br />
* Default Scanlist: When programming an object, select the scan list using the menu or the default scan list one will be used. To return an object to your selected scanlist, set the default the the scanlist to the number you want. To return an object to the default during EDIT or NEW press Dflt.<br />
<br />
* Dupe function: To repeat commonly used object attributes, use the Dupe function. <br />
<br />
* Object access: To go to an object, press MAN or PGM and the object number, then press E to goto the object.<br />
<br />
* Force Analog: If you have a CONV object that you know is analog, You can set the object to tone search to force it as analog.<br />
<br />
* Force Digital: If you have a CONV object (or trunked) that you know is digital, you can force it as digital by forcing it to search for P25 NAC.<br />
<br />
* Flex Step: "Super Expert Setting Menu". PGM, FUNC F3:GLOB Scroll down to "flexStep" and Rt-Arrow it to "On" F1:Save<br />
<br />
* Audio Boost: Expert menu, AudioBoost, On or OFF, Applies a 6 dB boost to audio levels when the object is active<br />
<br />
* Delete Alpha Characters during entry: Func + CL will delete all the characters in a line. Use the "." (decimal) key to delete a character and make a blank space.<br />
<br />
* Battery Settings: Change the battery setting in the Global menu: Alkaline, NiCad, or NiMIH, to set the proper battery warnig levels for the battery type you are using.<br />
<br />
* Quick Menu Move: Func + Up or Down will move to the top or bottom of a menu.<br />
<br />
* Go directly to a newly saved conventional object: Press MAN right after pressing "Stor" in the search, you'll be taken right to the CONV object you just stored.<br />
<br />
* Object Search: If you press manual, you can then scroll through the scanlist (the default save to, is scanlist 1) with the up/down arrows. You can also use the Find feature. press Program, Edit, Find enter a alpha text or frequency. And you can find it by object type by pressing Program, Edit, press left or right key to select the object type, such as CONV, the the up down arrow to select the conventional object.<br />
<br />
* Signal Strength Meter Settings: A setting of 470-750, provides a more relative indication of signal bars than the default range.<br />
<br />
* EDACS Narrow: For some systems, the control channel data may need to be inverted. Once the EDACS narrow system is created, arrow down to the "Expert Below" section until you see "Invert Data: No", arrow right or left to display "Yes", press Save (F1) to save changes. <br />

<br />
* There is also a built in data dump which can be enabled with "CCDump" in the Func-Global "super expert" menu which may meet many users needs when used with 3rd party software which already supports this data. When CCDump = "Yes" most control channel and weather SAME data is dumped to the PC/IF port for use with the USB cable. This may save soldering and warranty issues for most users.<br />

Description<br />
<br />
The Pro-106 is manufactured for Radio Shack by GRE America Inc.<br />
<br />
The Radio Shack is a Digital Trunk Tracking scanner which boasts the ability to track APCO 25 digital trunking systems, in addition to following Motorola type I/II systems, LTR and EDACS trunking systems. It is very similar to the GRE [[PSR-500]].<br />
<br />
The Pro-106 is very similar to the [[PSR-500]] and uses the same [[Radio Control Software|radio control software]] and [http://www.starrsoft.com/software/Win96/Cables/cables.html scanner cables].<br />

<div>This page contains links and downloads for utilities that can be used to decode the data streams of various trunked systems. Many, though not all, of these applications require audio from the [[Discriminator output]] of your scanner. In addition, except Pro96com, UniTrunker and some MPT-1327 apps, you must convert the audio from your scanner into serial data by using one of the circuits (or pre made units) shown on the [[Data Slicers]] page.<br><br />
If you have questions about these utilities, please post on the [http://www.radioreference.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=26 Trunker/Etrunker/T4Win Decoders] forum at Radioreference<br />

<hr />
<div>This page is an introduction for those new to the world of VHF and UHF military monitoring, as well as for folks more seasoned in the hobby. <br />
<br />
==Where to Start?==<br />
Even if you aren't around a military base, there's still several possibilities to hear Military Communications (Milcom) traffic:<br />
<br />
* [http://www.airnav.com Airnav]<br />
* Your local [[ARTCC]] Center uses both VHF and UHF frequencies for aircraft communications<br />
* If you have one in your area, a [[TRACON]] is also another source of activity<br />
* If you live near a major city, chances are good your local airport also uses UHF frequencies in addition to the usual civil air ones.<br />
* Traffic in and around a Military Operations Area can often be heard; check out the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_Operations_Area Wikipedia] for more information about MOAs.<br />
* Military air-to-air and air-to-ground traffic can be heard virtually anywhere.<br />
* Air National Guard base activity<br />
* Nationwide NORAD activity<br />
* Civil Air Patrol and Combat Air Patrol communications<br />
* If you have a HF receiver, check out the [[HF Military Communications]] article <br />
* [http://www.worldaerodata.com World Aero Data]<br />
<br />
==The VHF/UHF Milcom Receiver==<br />
A receiver for monitoring VHF and UHF Milcom must cover, at a minimum, the 225-400 and 138-144 mhz ranges. Mil flights sometimes also use the civil air band (118-136 mhz) range. With the exception of the civil air band (where [[AM]] mode is the norm) and the VHF Low/162/406 Mhz bands ([[FM]]), either AM or FM mode transmissions may be heard in these ranges. Starting with the 2005 airshow season, monitors reported hearing Blue Angels ground support units using [[NFM]] mode in the 138-144 Mhz range. Clearly the ability to change mode independent of the frequency being received is very important.<br />
<br />
Although these are the only hard requirements, other features are also desirable.<br />
<br />
A receiver with a fast scan rate is necessary when scanning a large number of milcom channels. Most milcom aircraft communications are short in duration, and after a while you will be accumulating and scanning a large number of frequencies. What qualifies as a 'fast' scanner is subjective. As an example, the Uniden [[BC780XLT]] is a popular mil air scanner which can scan 100 channels per second.<br />
<br />
Good sensitivity in the above frequency ranges is also a plus. You will be receiving milcom aircraft signals originating from hundreds of miles away, and they can be relatively weak.<br />
<br />
* See the [[Milcom Receiving Equipment]] page for more information about receivers, scanners, antennas, and filters. Also, reviews and user comments from EHam and Strong Signals are linked here, along with Wiki pages devoted to many different models.<br />
<br />
==The Milcom Antenna==<br />
Many different types of antennas can be used to receive mil air communications. Discones, beams, and even wideband whips on handheld scanners can all be used. You'll have the most success by following the basic principles: use an antenna optimized for the frequency range, get the antenna up high, and minimize your loss.<br />
<br />
* See the [[Antennas]] page for more details.<br />
<br />
<br />
==Scanning for Milcom Activity==<br />
* See the [[Milcom Web Pages and Mailing Lists]] page for known frequencies. This page gives you a great many possible sources of information. Don't forget to look at the RadioReference Databases first!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
==Searching for Milcom Activity==<br />
Milcom frequencies are generally not published. Activity is usually found by searching the 225-380 MHz range, and then identifying what you hear on a consistent basis. So, searching this range is a good place to start.<br />
<br />
However, searching the entire 225-380 MHz range at once is usually impractical, even for a fast scanner. A better technique is to break up this band into a number of search ranges for more efficient searching. One way to break up this band is:<br />
<br />
* Search range 1: 225 - 275 MHz<br />
* Search range 2: 275 - 325 MHz<br />
* Search range 3: 325 - 380 MHz<br />
<br />
<br />
You can further divide these chunks into smaller ranges to suit your receiver's search abilities. Also, milcom aircraft communications use a '''25 kHz interval'''. This is important; setting your step size to 25 kHz allows for faster searching and reduces the chance you'll miss a comm (smaller step sizes means longer searches).<br />
<br />
<br />
==Logging your Milcom Hits==<br />
Before long, you will accumulate a large number of milcom frequencies. However, not all of these frequencies will be active all the time, especially if you're not located near a region with a high amount of milcom activity. For example, NORAD frequencies may only be active during certain exercises, as opposed to aerial refueling which happens on a more regular basis.<br />
<br />
Logging your milcom activity can help you identify the frequencies that are more common for your area. You can do this if you have software that supports frequency logging for your receiver. Log the milcom hits on your programmed frequencies on a daily basis, over a period of a week or 2 (or longer). After a while, you'll accumulate a set of "primary" milcom frequencies for your area. The same technique can be applied to searching as well.<br />
<br />
Along with logging, recording activity is a convienient way of capturing what you hear for later review and retrieval. We have several packages compatible with many different scanners in the [[Recording Software and Tips]] article for software and various hints and problems with feeding your scanner audio to your PC.<br />
<br />
You should be aware that GRE/RS scanners cannot scan and log or record - it's simply not in the firmware to allow for this function. The lone exception is the [[Pro-2052]], which has Uniden firmware and can be computer controlled.<br />
<br />
==The 380 - 400 MHz Range==<br />
While aero operations and other modes can be heard here, various military and federal users have established APCO-25 trunked systems in this band.<br />
<br />
When fully operational, some of these systems will not be monitorable by any scanner. However, several systems have come on line that can be trunktracked. Currently, Uniden's [[BCD396T]], [[BCD996T]] and GRE's [[PSR-500]] and [[PSR-600]] scanners can trunktrack these systems. Other digital trunktrackers can listen to such systems in a conventional mode.<br />
<br />
If you are using a [[Pro-96]], [[Pro-2096]] or [[Pro-106]] scanner from Radio Shack or a [[PSR-500]] or [[PSR-600] from GRE, and you hear a 9600 bps control channel in this range, a utility known as '''Pro96Com''' (a Trunker like utility) can be used to monitor activity found here.<br />
<br />
==Satellite Communications (SATCOM)==<br />
Military communications over satellites can occasionally be heard. Note that just about all U.S. military SATCOM voice transmissions are encrypted. Occasionally you can hear short comms in the clear, like voice testing, but this is infrequent. You can also hear telemetry and other constant data streams. More often, you can hear what sounds like casual conversations in languages other than English, but the reason for this is somewhat unclear.<br />
<br />
A receiver for monitoring SATCOM must satisfy this requirement:<br />
<br />
* Coverage from 240 MHz to 270 MHz, NFM mode<br />
<br />
<br />
Just like VHF/UHF Milcom, SATCOM uses an interval of 25 kHz. Optimal setups for receiving SATCOM are unique, involving hi gain antennas designed for correct polarization of the SATCOM signal.<br />
<br />
It is possible to hear SATCOM with nothing more than a handheld and a wideband whip. This technique involves going outside (SATCOM signals are relatively weak), searching the SATCOM frequency range, and experimenting with orienting your whip from vertical to horizontal. Listen carefully for carriers and periodic data bursts, and of course the voice traffic mentioned above.<br />
<br />
* See the [[SATCOM]] page for more information about amateur and military satellites, along with tips for hearing - and maybe working - the International Space Station.<br />

<div>== The RadioReference.com Web Service==<br />
<br />
The RadioReference.com Web Service provides a common documented standard interface to the raw frequency and trunked radio data in the radio reference database. The primary benefit to this Web service is the ability for software developers to write applications that can support this standard process for accessing the data. Many software developers have written software that can program a scanner using data directly from the database. <br />
<br />
There are two released versions of the RadioReference.com Web Service and one proposed version:<br />
<br />
=== Version 3.1 (In BETA) ===<br />
<br />
The SOAP Web service 3.1 is documented at [[RadioReference.com_Web_Service3.1]]<br />
<br />
=== Version 1.10 (Updated November 11, 2005)===<br />
* Download the [http://www.radioreference.com/downloads/ws/rr_ws_1.10.pdf Latest Version ] (PDF) of the Web Service specification which supports Conventional and Trunked System Information.<br />
<br />
Notes about the latest version of the Web Service (Important):<br />
<br />
1. Note the change in the XML doc format for a county query - there is a new top-level attribute, and two 2nd level attributes, one for trs data, one for conventional data. This is different.<br />
<br />
2. The list of valid PL tones is where we are headed, however for the next few months expect to get non-standard PL's in the XML doc. I would just throw them away if you don't see a valid tone - however the logic is up to you. Anything new going into the database has to maintain the new standard for PLs, but we are still processing legacy entries in the db.<br />
<br />
3. See Appendix C for the relationship diagram.<br />
<br />
4. Note the new URL for the latest version of the XML interface. The existing legacy interface will be left in-tact and not changed for depreciated versions of software in the feed.<br />
<br />
=== Version 0.94 ===<br />
* Download the [http://www.radioreference.com/downloads/ws/rr_ws_0.94.pdf Legacy Version ] (PDF) of the Web Service specification which supports only Trunked System Information.<br />
<br />
=== Future Directions ===<br />
<br />
* FCC License Data <br />
* FCC Licensee Data<br />
* Addition of Location Date for GPS Related Activities<br />
