CALCORD
Posted: Wed Mar 09, 2005 6:01 pm
Lately in the evening, I've been hearing a couple of guys chatting BS on CALCORD. From what they've said, they're law enforcement and it sounds like they are just out working and found a place to chat... casual stuff. I also believe they mentioned IB last night. I'm leaning towards BP, but I really don't know who they are with.
CALCORD is the California On Scene Coordination channel, rarely if ever used in San Diego and pretty much useless since not too many agencies sport VHF any longer. The CHP still has it in their radios, BP has VHF radios, but I don't know if they have CALCORD or not. I would suspect Fish and Game and CDF have it as well as any other state agency. The SDFD Bat Chiefs still have a VHF radio in their rig I think.
Anyway, it's an interesting listen. Chit chat, talked about their boats once. Maybe it's the CHP dudes. Or BP because they're sitting up high on those hills east of 905 and would get out real well...
It comes in pretty good all over the 94 and I-8 areas in SD city limits. It's of course, simplex because there are no repeaters on that channel.
Curious
