331 - SRU109: FDMA and TDMA for beginners
Digital modes, like P25, NXDN, DMR and others will use FDMA, TDMA, or both allow multiple transmissions to share a single frequency at the same time. FDMA or Frequency Division Multiple Access divides a current carrier frequency into multiple parts, allowing for multiple users to operate on the same time on the same frequency. TDMA or Time Division Multiple Access divides a current transmission over time, allowing for 2 or more users to share a the same frequency at the same time, depending on the digital protocol that is used. The ability for these digital transmissions to place multiple users on the same frequency allows for better management of the limited radio spectrum resource. Not only does this allow for more frequencies to be distributed, but allows for end licenses to do more with a single radio license. Learn the differences between FDMA and TDMA in this week's podcast. ==================================== 🛒 Check out our new Merch! ==================================== Squelchy opened his own store selling Scanner School merchandise!

329 - SRU107: Simulcast - How to Stop the Pain
Imagine knowing that your scanner radio has a full signal, but you can't hear anything. Maybe you're listening to a p25 trunk system, but you can't listen to any of the activity. You can see your scanner is trying to go to a voice channel. It's trying to work. But you hear nothing. How frustrating does this sound? For many, this is a common occurrence when they try to listen to a P25 Simulcast site on their scanner radios. Let’s figure out why this is happening and some simple solutions you can try to overcome simulcast. ==================================== 🛒 Check out our new Merch! ==================================== Squelchy opened his own store selling Scanner School merchandise!

327 - SRU106: Rebanding - How Nextel complicated the scanner hobby
The Nextel Conundrum: Originally established as a convenient communication solution for small businesses, Nextel swiftly expanded its services to include cellular telephony. However, the positioning of Nextel within the RF spectrum, sandwiched besides public safety frequencies, combined with its network built for capacity, led to unprecedented challenges. The dense clustering of Nextel sites interfered with public safety radios, prompting the necessity for rebanding. Rebanding entailed a complex realignment of frequencies to mitigate interference issues. This intricate shuffle involved relocating Nextel closer to cellular carriers while carving out exclusive bands for public safety entities. This relocation of the 800Mhz public safety spectrum, known as rebanding, posed a significant problem for scanner enthusiasts who monitored many Motorola trunking systems in the 800Mhz band. The impact of rebanding reverberated through the scanner radio community, rendering many radios obsolete overnight. Today, we still need to be aware of systems that are operating in the rebanded spectrum and ensure our radios are programmed correctly to monitor these systems. ==================================== 🛒 Check out our new Merch! ==================================== Squelchy opened his own store selling Scanner School merchandise!

326 - SRU105 - Analog and Digital Trunked Systems
Once upon a time, we only had analog trunked radio systems. These systems all had analog voice talk groups. These systems included Motorola Type I, Motorola Type IIi, Motorola Type II, EDACS, and LTR systems. Today, we are living in a digital trunked environment, where there are no analog voice channels. All voice is done using a form of digital modulation. These systems include P25, DMR, and NXDN. But, we had an in between. This is where we had digital talk groups on an analog trunked system. On a Motorola Type II system, we could find P25 talk groups. On EDACS systems, we'd find ProVoice talk groups. This podcast will discuss analog and digital systems, and explain why our older P25 scanners like a Uniden BC785D will not work on today's P25 Trunked systems. ==================================== 🛒 Check out our new Merch! ==================================== Squelchy opened his own store selling Scanner School merchandise!

325 - SRU104 - LCN vs CC Only Trunked Systems
There are two distinct flavors of trunked radio systems that we need to be aware of when programming our scanners. There are systems that require that every frequency for each site be programmed into their pre-determined channel number, and those that do not. Systems that require every frequency be programmed into our scanners in their designated sequence are Logical Channel Numbered systems and include EDACS, LTR, and all flavors of DMR. Control channel only systems only require the control channels to be programmed into our scanners, as those systems have a predetermined channel mapping as part of their system protocol. These systems include Motorola Type II systems and P25 Trunked systems. However, don't let "Control Channel Only" fool you. There is a best practice that you should be aware of that most miss when programming your scanners. We cover that and more in this week's podcast. ==================================== 🛒 Check out our new Merch! ==================================== Squelchy opened his own store selling Scanner School merchandise!

318 - Yaesu FT-60R Review
The Yaesu FT-60R has to be one of the longest radios available for purchase. First released in 2004, the FT-60R is still for sale, 20 years later! Yes, this is a Ham Radio, but this rugged two way radio has a wide enough receiver that it could be used as a conventional only scanner radio. While it lacks some of the bells and whistles that most scanner radios have, this radio has enough going for it that the losses can be overlooked. Today’s review is broken down into 3 parts. A general summary review, a amateur radio review, and a scanner radio review. ==================================== 🔗 Links from today’s podcast ==================================== Purchase a Yaesu FT-60R: https://amzn.to/3SaIs4b Purchase a programming cable: https://ebay.us/6SWnkW ==================================== 🛒 Check out our new Merch! ==================================== Squelchy opened his own store selling Scanner School merchandise!

310 - Riding and Scanning Amtrak's Zephyr with Garrett Farwell
Garrett Farwell returns to the podcast this week to talk about his recent trip from California to Colorado aboard Amtrak’s California Zephyr. How does a “Scannerd” occupy their time while on a multi-day and multi-state land cruise? With their portable scanner of course! Garrett shares how he prepared for his trip using online resources to find frequencies he might be interested in monitoring on his journey and how one last minute surprise really helped him get his trip off on the right “track”. I always look forward to having Garrett on the podcast and would like to thank him again for sharing what he has learned on this trip with the “Scannerd” community. ==================================== 🛒 Check out our new Merch! ==================================== Squelchy opened his own store selling Scanner School merchandise!

308 - Ham Radio HTs for Scanning w/ David Vine

308 - Ham Radio HTs for Scanning w/ David Vine
David Vine returns to the podcast this week to share alternative uses to Ham Radios. Not only can you use VHF and UHF Ham Radios to talk and monitor amateur radio frequencies, but you can use most of them to monitor outside the amateur radio band. This means many ham radios can also be used as basic scanner radios. Frequencies that can be monitored will vary by make and model, but for the most part, expect to be able to monitor the VHF and UHF public safety bands with a VHF or UHF ham radio. Setting up scan lists and alpha tagging frequencies are most likely different from what you are used to with your scanner, but if you learn how to use a radio within its limits, you may find that having a ham radio and using it as a receiver, could really add value to your radio collection. And yes, I do give Baofeng radios a virtual poke in the ribs, but if you can use a radio like that or something similar to monitor a single or short list of conventional analog channels, then that could free up your scanner to monitor other activity. And the more radios you have monitoring less frequencies, then the more activity you’ll hear and enjoy. ==================================== 🛒 Check out our new Merch! ==================================== Squelchy opened his own store selling Scanner School merchandise!

305 - Building a Bond by Scanning Schools
Are you looking for a creative way to build a radio bond with your child? Have you tried to scan something they can relate to, such as their own school? When your child hears a teacher, faculty, or staff that they know and can recognize talking on the radio, it could spark an interest for scanning within them. Scanning your child’s school can also be of interest during times where the school has engaged their own safety protocols and have locked down. Or, it could be interesting to hear about late pickups, routine maintenance, or other day to day activities. Remember, there is more to scanning than just public safety, and the secrets are in the searches! ==================================== 🛒 Check out our new Merch! ==================================== Squelchy opened his own store selling Scanner School merchandise!

304 - Remembering Larry Van Horn
For many, you can’t talk about scanning without mentioning Larry Van Horn. Larry has influenced many in the hobby when it comes to Military Monitoring. He wrote for Monitoring Time Magazine for many years and continued to write for “The Spectrum Monitor” once MT ceased publication. Not only was Larry a wealth of information when it came to Military Monitoring, but his yearly airshow columns were second to none. Larry, N5FPW, spent many years monitoring and sharing information. Larry was special, in that he never forgot anything, which helped when writing his many column and publications. This week’s podcast is a conversation Larry and I had that originally aired as Podcast # 178. Larry’s legacy will live on for decades to come and I know I’ll miss his columns on future editions of TSM. Larry Van Horn, N5FPW, retired US Navy Chief Petty Officer, Author, Contributor, mentor, and friend. You will be missed. ==================================== 🛒 Check out our new Merch! ==================================== Squelchy opened his own store selling Scanner School merchandise!
