Re: Fleetmaps
Thanks. These look like what I have been hearing with the dispatcher giving both old and new names to channels.

Re: Blue Angels on 3/14
I thought they might be close by. I work near MCASMiramar. Last week I saw a plane take off, and I was pretty sure that it was the Blue Angels supply plane. They took off the normal west bound, then made a wide turn east bound. They must have come to get something they left behind last year

Scanner mobile antenna
Does anyone use the SpectrumForce Wideband mag mount or the Scan-Force mobile antennas? If so, how do they do on all of San Diego's different systems?

Re: City system bleedover
I have noticed that a lot recently. Scanner stops on a PD TG, and it is fire/medic talking. I haven't heard them acknowledge that it was bleedover. I thought maybe my scanner had a brain fart

Re: Air TAC channel?
Maybe the 'SAM' was thinking of City M/A 10, 20, 30, which have been used for AIR traffic during wildfires.

Re: NewsChopper 7/39
That would explain the strange looking video from the chopper on 739 last night. KGTV transmitts news in HD, and KNSD does not. The picture looked squashed.

SDPD TAC 4
Does anyone know why SDPD uses their TAC4 for inquiries so much? Is the regular inquiry channel busy, or not working?
