Includes BART Train and Yard operations, BART Police and Fire *** Covers the counties of San Mateo, San Francisco, Alameda, and Contra Costa.

The scanner location is in the hills of the city of San Mateo at about 500ft.
BART is an SF Bay Area train transportation system. They have their own Police department, train control, yards, etc.
As a train system on the move, the signal quality of transmissions varies from great to poor at times.
Most of the time, the signal quality is good to OK.
This is the case with any railroad system & there is nothing I can do about it.

Though there never have been problems, just remember to observe the generally accepted etiquettes for internet forums while posting in this forum. So, no spamming, no flaming, no cursing, no undue quoting, etc. You get the drift. Queries
When posting a query in the forum, if possible, please add as much information as possible that can assist in solving your problem. Adding images
When posting a query and adding an image, please note the following:
* It should be avoided to include images that are too broad. Not every user will have a widescreen monitor and broad images can result in having to scroll from left to right to read the texts. The recommended maximum width is 600 pixels.
* If you use [ img ] tags to include images in your post, remember that the link will be broken as soon as:
- the image is deleted from the remote server;
- the image on the remote server is renamed;
- the remote server is down.
- The webmaster cannot always repair broken links. The original poster will have to do that him/herself and needs to keep in track of images (s)he placed in the forum him/herself.
* Please, place images in the message itself rather than just providing links to (internet pages with) the images. For practical reasons, it is better to have the actual images in the thread discussing a matter rather than having them in separate windows.
* Please try to keep the number of queries per thread restricted to one or a number of related queries at most. It confuses the reader if two or more elaborate discussions start on different subjects in the same thread. Also, it will lead to the loss of overview.br /> * Instructions for adding images to posts in the Frequently Asked Questions should be followed.
* If an image is not taken by yourself but linked to, for example, in an online photo album or another website, you must give a link to the relevant page invisible text (preferable between [ url ] tags), too.
