Kenwood NX-800 - Pre-Spring Break School Bus Radio Chatter with FleetSync

I've some requests lately to make a few two-way radio videos. I figured with today being our last day of school for Spring Break, I'd set my phone up in front of the radio to see what the bus drivers had to say.

Most of this is regular chatter, but the dispatcher put in a very nice comment about Easter. This really is an amazing company.

The system being recorded is a conventional UHF repeater system with FleetSync. Radios you hear are Kenwood NX-800H, TK-8180H, and TK-8150 units.

Radios with FleetSync IDs beginning in 100 are TK-8150 units, ones with IDs beginning in 108 are TK-8180 units, and the NX-800 units are 109, 110, and 111.

Because the company's radios were not programmed properly, many of the radios share the same FleetSync ID, 1104456, causing them to go into selective call, sound the alert tone, and flash the LED orange when a radio with that matching ID is transmitted on.

I also have my Uniden BCD436HP scanner going in the background with the volume down on the same frequency, so you can see the screen light up on it when a new transmission comes up.
