I am saddened to discover that Opus 1.2 did not make it in to Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. Even weirder to see Debian stable shipped with a 1.2alpha. Maybe at this rate I'll be able to build custom 1.3 packages once its released.

I work for a small company that designs and manufactures a fair amount of high-tech radio gear in the United States. Like, our products are designed in Rochester NY, built in a factory in the SF Bay area, warehoused in NYC, and sold around the world.

@tbr @w8emv @rey I tuned the VHF frequency listed in the company's docs and that is definitely POCSAG. This UHF signal is something entirely different.

FCC's geosearch has been essentially inop the last couple weeks, so I searched by licensee state and hoped for the best. I think this is it: wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/UlsSe

So yes, very likely paging. Question is, what protocol is that? It doesn't appear to be anything in multimon-ng's vocabulary.
