Thank you so much for the videos! I just received my dongle, antenna, and downloaded SDR Sharp today and was totally overwhelmed! However, after watching this video I have been able to somewhat get my "feet wet" and navigate the software and frequencies with a little success. I recently retired from Shelby NC, moved to Myrtle Beach SC, and was looking for a hobby to occupy my time when not golfing😜 I was about to give up on SDR when I found your videos. Thanks again for such simple and easy to follow instruction!!!

I've had a scanner forever -- parents always had one and I've always had one as an adult. The local emergency services here just went to digital in the last couple of weeks and I was fretting over dropping $300-$600 to get a new scanner. I knew this was possible but had no idea what it involved. Seems very doable now. Thanks for the video!

DSB = Dual Side Band (amplitude modulation without the carrier but with both sides) it is related to Lower Side Band and Upper Side Band (LSB, USB) which are types of Single Side Band (SSB) all are variations related to AM.

FYI LSB (Lower Sideband) is the normal mode in the lower HF bands from 160meters-40meters, USB (Upper Sideband) is normal mode from 20meters on up.. AM is splattered all over the ham bands... FM is the normal mode from 2 meters on up, but 2 meter SSB (single sideband) is gaining popularity

‘DSB’ is short for ‘Double Side Band - Suppressed Carrier’ aka ‘DSB-SC’. It is not AM. AM has a carrier signal. DSB-SC is ‘like’ AM, except that there is no carrier signal. Only the information is transmitted. It’s much more efficient.

SSBs are used in HF bc they require less power than AM stations on HF, and thus are bandwidth friendly, but they require mobile radio that can demodulate them that have a VFO (variable/voltage frequency oscillator), that's why HF receivers are more expensive and heavier than VHF/UHF ones, CB radios don't handle SSBs. AM is fine on VHF/UHF bc the bandwidth are larger and more spaced as you go up, HF is more tight and crowded trunked radio is new to me, but seems it's an effort to manage bandwidth bc of the explosion of users of VHF/UHF frequencies and 5G is eating on it too, so it reminds me of how wifi do channel hopping.

Do I misunderstand some concepts? At 9:49, the frequency of the control channel of Mecklenburg is 853.8125 MHz. As far as I know, under a particular frequency there are 4 time slots. The 1st time slot is used as a control channel while the remaining three are voice channels. With this in mind, does the Mecklenburg's 853.8125 MHz use its all four slots as control channels, or only the 1st slot of 853.8125 MHz is the control channel while the remaining three are voice channels? Thanks.

CW is morse code bandwidth, LSB is lower sideband, USB is upper sideband. DSB suppresses both sidebands. Typical voice channels in UHF and VHF will use narrow band FM and your music channels need more dynamic range and frequency spectrum so they are wide band.
@zazugee
@zazugee Жыл бұрын
actually CW means continuous waves and not morse code, but bc since iit was used mainly to send morse code at super narrow band using as less bandwidth as possible, it became associated, actually you can use CW to send/recive RTTY for example or some few other digital modes.

Don't mean to sound negative, but being very critical of the terms used when discussing radio reference with channels and frequencies. With trunking in this fashion you can not follow a complete conversation because unless your radio is commanded by the trunked system control frequency, you won't go from the other appropriate frequencies everytime a radio is transmitting on a particular talkgroup. One time while listening on one trunked audio frequency it might be the police dept., the next transmission, might be the fire dept, and then the dog catcher for example. The contol frequency commanded all of those radio in one talkgroup, like the PD to switch to another frequency in the trunked system. Trunked systems are not as he stated always that efficient, they have limitations. If for example there are 16 audio frequencies in that system available, but 60 different groups, as found in large metro cities, sometimes a user may not be able to transmit because the sys. is overloaded. The technicians program different talkgroups with different priorities so that it may give them authorization to "bump" another user off. The fire department may have something more critical to communicate than the dog catcher.

Steve Schwartz OK...First I do appreciate the info and the manner you've presented this video. I have learned a bit about SDRs (will be buying one soon). I mean this as constructive criticism, not destructive. ...being the grammar Nazi that I am, the first mention of a 800 MHz freq is not really what in my personal opinion I'd label a "channel", I would call it a frequency. Yes, a channel is a frequency. But I tend to usually think of a channel as a textual label, but not always. Sometimes they are Ch. 1, 2, 3 and so on. In trunking they may not have any label except for a technician of the system. A control channel which is the data channel (sometimes there may be an alternate backup control channel) tells all the radios on this system what frequency (voice channel in this system) to go to, by what talkgroup the radios are on. Let's for simplicity say that there are 3 talkgroups in this system. Talkgroup 1 is the PD. TG 2 is the FD, and TG 3 is the EMS. Let's assume that there is one data channel 860 MHz, and 8 voice channels. 861, 862, 863 up to 868. The data channel continuously transmits. A police officer (PO) transmits, the data channel recognizes that his radio wants to transmit. It assigns his radio, as well as all the other radios on his TG to go to...863 MHz. His voice is transmitted, everyone hears him. He stops transmitting. Another PO transmits, same thing, the data channel recognizes his radios "request" to transmit, and "tells"all the other radios in his TG to go to...865 MHz (generally randomly any unused frequency channel in the system). Now let's say the FD transmits (while the 2nd PO is transmitting), the data channel knows 865 MHz is being used, so it sends all the radios on the FD talkgroup to 863 MHz. Now all this works fine since there are 8 channels in the system and 3 TGs. Now imagine a larger city with say 14 PD TGs, 3 FD TGs, and 2 EMS TGs as well as TGs for the dog catcher, sewer dept, water dept., etc. ...and say 10 different users each in a different TGs wants to transmit at the same time. Now you have a problem. 2 of them won't be able to transmit since there are only 8 voice frequency channels. Technicians program TGs to have higher priorities than others, in this case, the PD and FD over the dog catcher. So if all of the voice channels are being used, and a PO wants to transmit, the data channel will cause the dog catcher to drop his transmission and give the PO the "right of way". As a suggestion to you, I think it would be interesting if you could make a video on reverse engineering what data is coming from the data channel. I'm sure it sends the Talkgroup IDs as well as the radio IDs (each radio's "serial #). I use another software program for my state's (MI) P25 trunked system in conjunction with my scanner radio to decode some of the info.

DSB is double (or dual) sideband, a combination of upper and lower side band. For amateur radio (ham) use, frequencies below 10 MHz we use lower sideband, and above 10 MHz we use upper sideband. All other services, such as military and aero use as a standard, upper sideband. You may also want to Google a NTIA frequency spectrum chart for a rough guide of what service is used in what part of the spectrum. Hmmm...I don't know how I could securely give you my email (other than publicly here) I could provide you with some other info. If you can figure out my call and how to find my email that might work...hint hint nudge nudge wink wink

CW - continuous wave is for Morse Code. I'm not sure how your software works, but I'm guessing RAW uses the entire spectrum displayed. Shift might be used for a purpose such as on the 2M ham band (144-148 MHz) for repeater use. A radio (depending where) may transmit 600 kHz higher or lower than the repeater. Around 440 -465 MHz hams and other users will transmit 5 MHz lower than the repeater.

I’ve seen several videos and how to guides online regarding radio astronomy using these SDR‘s. I’m going to also try it myself in the coming months. Good luck

Crap huh? Must be, ... because YOU couldn't figure it out. So much for the 970 who did figure it out. If its such crap I'll be waiting for you to post your own video and when you do, include the link here for all to see how it's really done.

For Cop Watching / First Amendment Auditing the CONTROL CHANNEL is my favourite. Jam the Control Channel (say, with a BAOFENG UV-82 VHF UHF FM Transceiver Dual Band Two Way Radio $25.19) is my my favourite - all the little piggies lose communications. Funny as hell to watch their faces.
