For example for me, I have multiple audio outputs with different speakers, and instead of mixing the audio and playing it out of the system default, it would be nice if the console would allow me to select which audio device each of the audio player's output to instead of just using the...

Today when I was monitoring local law enforcement I heard a State Trooper tell dispatch he was going to "Troop F talkgroup". That suggested he was going into a trunked system, if I understand correctly. As best I can tell from RadioReference and other research, Troop F is not trunked. Any thoughts on the transmission would be much appreciated as I... Read more View article »
04-12-26 Wondering about LCR meters Good evening everyone I'm having fun playing around with receiving antennas as my teenage hobby of LW, MW and SW listening has returned mid-life.

And so I am beginning to toy with the idea of building various loops, baluns etc and have realised that I may need to be able to measure things like capacitance and resistance to know a bit better what I'm actually doing. Being (evidently) a happy amateur (though studying for my licence, I should add) I'm a bit bewildered by the choices of LCR... Read more View article »

Most changes appear to be centered on the Southlake, Keller, Colleyville and Westlake Public Safety cities, but this is preliminary as we do-not know IF other NE Tarrant agencies will or will-not be in this update. Several of the above noted cities have just had all mobile and HT radios... Read more View article »

I thought they were exaggerating until I got up and walked 20 feet to the living room. Wow! the sound was clear and LOUD. I walked back to source and the same volume sounded way lower. I can't explain the physics or reason on why I have a hard time hearing it 2 feet away but it is very loud 20 feet away at the same volume. View article »
