MTA Bus Scanner Info

[Locomotion69 14]

I am aware that they switched to a trunked system. I have a low end scanner,Radio Shack Pro-94 portable. I believe that they are in the 800-900 frequency range. Can anybody advise on what make/model scanner to buy? Thanks in advance.

Spying on conversations, are ya?????

 

Freedom of the press, and maybe that's how they find out about incidents that happen.

MTA has one for sale on it's site.

I wouldn't call it spying DOB,more like trying to learn the bus talk langauge. I couldn't find it on the MTA website,maybe it is because i am a dysfunctional shopper. Lol@ the subway map shower curtains. I will try my local Radio Shack.

 

On an unrelated note,Is it illegal to practice parallel parking on a school bus at a bus stop? This was in Ridgewood,B 38 line on Stanhope St,there weren't any people waiting for the bus,but I had to wait several times to let traffic go around me,very nerve racking to say the least. :eek: My cdl driving instructor is cool but I think he feels like he owns the roads.

No, long as a bus isn't using the stop.
