Cook County / Transit Authorities

Subcategory: Buses

Unique DB ID: 26906

The interstitial freqs like the 453.8375 freq are newer licenses. They appear to service local facilities at discrete locations with smaller coverage areas / lower power transmitters. I'd also suggest 472.9375, formerly Chicago Police mass transit unit. There's some other security contractors out there, too. Might try 464.800 (100.0) and GMRS repeaters. Buses transmit GPS info on the mobile side of the 453 Mhz (458 Mhz) repeaters.
