Pace Suburban Bus Service of the RTA

Buses

The interstitial freqs like the 453.8375 freq are newer licenses. They appear to service local facilities at discrete locations with smaller coverage areas / lower power transmitters. I'd also suggest 472.9375, formerly Chicago Police mass transit unit. There's some other security contractors out there, too. Might try 464.8 (100.0) and GMRS repeaters. Buses transmit GPS info on the mobile side of the 453 Mhz (458 Mhz) repeaters.

Regional Transportation Authority

  • 20-5W portables on 456.3125, 456.7125, 457.1125, 457.7625, 467.4875 - for Office Building Communications WQRV822

Other

  • 464.8 127.3 (formerly 100.0 PL), is Securitas Security Services, a private Security patrol service. They appear to be operating on the ESP Technology Willis Tower repeater. Working various elevated train stations and lines, CTA Command is often heard.

Bus Companies

Bus Companies - Other

  • Septran WNQL839 was recently modified to add DMR modulation to 854.4375 and other frequencies covered by this license. (4/24)
