Discussions about how to improve the Radio main page, allocation process and usage of radio frequencies. Asking for frequency reservations is not required, unless there are questions.

Requesting Clan Frequency

I'm setting up a new clan called the Malton Tactical Defense and Rescue, and we would like to ask for an official radio station, preferably on the frequency 27.95. If that isn't available, we'd be fine with a different frequency. Thank you.

27.95 is in use. Try 27.09 instead. Asheets 18:26, 20 July 2009 (BST)

Poachers

It seems that a group called the Mall Security Alliance has poached my group's station from the radio page's listing. We received no notification. Can anyone elaborate?--Bishop Vagancia I 21:57, 27 March 2009 (UTC) F.C.G.

  • I can't say that I remember ever seeing the listing. I'll ask some of the other list maintainers what they know. Asheets 22:26, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
Thank you. We've had that frequency marked and in frequent use by us since at least mid-2008. Ask Section 13 for corroboration. Having a radio frequency helps when events like the Mall Tour destroy the cellular tower, plus it allows you to contact your entire group with one action point instead of five to fifteen or more. I figured we would be asked or notified during the Great Radio Massacre before someone altered our relatively long-standing claim to the frequency, but we weren't. Any investigation into this injustice is appreciated.--Bishop Vagancia I 22:38, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
I've just checked the Web Archive, but they don't have the date that I claim, which sucks. Damnit.--Bishop Vagancia I 00:35, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
The page history goes back as far as August 13, 2008, and the MSA had the frequency claimed at that time. The MSA, however, have only had it on their page since March 8, 2009 (before that time, they had 28.88, now used by someone else). I have no idea what's going on here. I have no idea why our name was removed from the listing or when, and I'm at a loss as to how we can prove we had it to begin with, short of the word of our neighbors (if they can even remember back that far). This looks hopeless, but I still have faith in the system. Surely this mystery can unraveled by someone. I'm trying my damndest.--Bishop Vagancia I 10:20, 29 March 2009 (BST)
/me looks. It should firstly be said that this list isn't really "official" and frequencies can be claimed by anyone (hence, some shared frequencies.) Go ahead and add your name next to them if you want. I've checked your group's talk page history and you weren't checked by the Great Radio Group Massacre, which means that it must have been taken before then (that was in about December.)
Secondly, after looking through the history of your page, it appears it was created in January. We removed all groups that had a red link, or simply didn't exist, so that's probably why it was removed. Sorry. It appeared it wasn't removed by the Great Radio Group Massacre (the frequency was in use by Rotters Relief at the time, they didn't report on their activity, and were removed. So, by the looks of things, your frequency was poached by Rotter's Relief, who then where reported inactive, and the inactive frequency was taken by the MSA. Sadly, the history for the Radio/Frequency List page ends in August (the Frequency List page is a template which is then added onto the main Radio page. If someone needs to change a frequency, they do it there. You were looking at the wrong history ;p.)
Hope I got everything. Linkthewindow  Talk  10:43, 29 March 2009 (BST)
I guess we'll have to change our frequency. Damnit. Thank you for your help. Poachers suck. I suppose I'll leave a note on MSA's talk page explaining this. I could of sworn I made our page last year, but in reality I had only claimed the frequency without making a group page due to being wiki-illiterate (I still have a lot of room for improvement). I consider this a mystery solved. Thanks, Mr. Wizard.--Bishop Vagancia I 10:57, 29 March 2009 (BST)
Regardless, I remember linking the radio page to ours. I remember that vividly. But this as close as I can get to the truth, so the best I can do is claim a new frequency and watch it like a hawk; and relunctantly consider this matter closed.--Bishop Vagancia I 11:05, 29 March 2009 (BST)
All right, we've laid claim to a new frequency. I think I'll snap if someone takes this one, as well.--Bishop Vagancia I 05:05, 8 April 2009 (BST) F.C.G.

I'm weeding out freqs again

Just to let you know... . This time, I'm using the Great Suburb Group Massacre non-active template as an indicator of groups that aren't active. If this scheme doesn't work for you, go ahead and reclaim your freq with my apologies. Asheets 21:46, 24 September 2008 (BST)

Some group from across the city is using our local frequency 26.07

Hello, I just noticed that the group Mad Craskers from Heytown were broadcasting on the frequency 26.07, which I understand is reserved for Raines Hills and some other suburbs. On their wiki page they have the template that says this is their own radio frequency, but it's obvious that they never checked with the radio page. How can we get this group to change its broadcasting frequency? --Idly Hummingbird 01:53, 5 September 2008 (BST)

You could ask them, and offer one of the empty freqs. But in general, anybody can broadcast anywhere at anytime. Asheets 22:55, 7 September 2008 (BST)
Plus, some douchebag (I don't know who) is currently setting all of our radio on 26.07MHz instead of the official 26.06MHz. That so lame. I think we can claim that as zomby spying 'cause he's jamming our communication system!--GoLookAndKill 13:34, 2 October 2008 (BST)
To be fair, the Mad Craskers were using 26.07 as their radio frequency long before it was ever assigned to any suburb, group of suburbs, or whatnot, even before this wiki page existed. No one bothered to ask them if they would give it up, and after 5 years I cannot see them doing so voluntarily now.-Fallout11 01:46, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

A Suggestion

Recently, I've noticed a serious flaw in the structure of Suburb Radio Frequencies. They use up too many frequencies and the current structure is hard to remember. I suggest changing it to the following:

26.01: Dakerstown, Jensentown, Quarlesbank, West Boundwood, East Boundwood, Lamport Hills, Chanceltown, Earletown, Rhodenbank, Dulston.

26.02: Roywood, Judgewood, Gatcombeton, Shuttlebank, Yagoton, Millen Hills, Raines Hills, Pashenton, Rolt Heights, Pescodside.

26.03: Peddlesden Village, Chudleyton, Darvall Heights, Eastonwood, Brooke Hills, Shearbank, Huntley Heights, Santlerville, Gibsonton, Dunningwood.

26.04: Dunell Hills, West Becktown, East Becktown, Richmond Hills, Ketchelbank, Roachtown, Randallbank, Heytown, Spracklingbank, Paynterton.

26.05: Owsleybank, Molebank, Lukinswood, Havercroft, Barrville, Ridleybank, Pimbank, Peppardville, Pitneybank, Starlingtown.

26.06: Grigg Heights, Reganbank, Lerwill Heights, Shore Hills, Galbraith Hills, Stanbury Village, Roftwood, Edgecombe, Pegton, Dentonside.

26.07: Crooketon, Mornington, North Blythville, Brooksville, Mockridge Heights, Shackleville, Tollyton, Crowbank, vinetown, Houldenbank.

26.08: Nixton, Wykewood, South Blythville, Greentown, Tapton, Kempsterbank, Wray Heights, Gulsonside, Osmondville, Penny Heights.

26.09: Foulkes Village, Ruddlebank, Lockettside, Dartside, Kinch Heights, West Grayside, East Grayside, Scarletwood, Penville, Fryerbank.

26.10: New Arkham, Old Arkham, Spicer Hills, Williamsville, Buttonville, Wyke Hills, Hollomstown, Danversbank, Whittenside, Miltown.

I will accept any constructive criticism and I would also like to thank you for your time reading this suggestion. Chill 17:45, 3 September 2008 (BST)

Aside from the oft-stated premise that the existing structure has been around forever and a lot of folks are going to have to be convinced for this to change... how is the proposed system better than than status quo? Asheets 22:37, 3 September 2008 (BST)
Well first off, it's easier to rember than the old system. Secondly, it prevents confusion. Finally, this new configuration opens up ten previously unavailable frequencies for use. Also please keep in mind that this was just a suggestion, and I don't expect everyone to agree or like it. Chill 21:07, 14 September 2008 (BST)
I'd have to check, but the original system was designed so that a few large facilities situated on borders wouldn't be broken into 2 regional frequency realms. I know of at least 1 mall and 1 fort that would be broken up under the proposal. Asheets 21:23, 18 September 2008 (BST)

Recommendations for new radio list entries?

I had an idea of having a short list of recommendations for new radio list entries. I tried to keep any pov to a minimum but I think such can't be avoided entirely. Any input and edits on it would be very welcome. --Tumu 05:05, 6 December 2007 (UTC)


Do's and Dont's for new radio list entries

Because the radio is free and limited resource for everyone, here are few recommendations before claiming a frequency and using it in-game:

  • Going to report zombie/building status? Use the suburb/district frequencies. That way you target the survivors who are interested on hearing such status. Only very few survivors/groups can do anything about status of a far away suburb. There are already plenty of localized frequencies present, don't expect survivors to carry another radio for a new one.
  • A group frequency is not a status symbol, anyone can reserve one. Consider reserving one when you have more than few groupies and can keep a transmitter running for longer than one week.
    • More than 10 group members makes your group visible on the group list. Makes verifying your reservation easy.
  • Don't reserve more than one frequency. Each listened frequency needs a radio, most survivors can't afford having idle radios in their inventories.
  • Don't reserve a frequency for a building (or a group of buildings) unless it habits more than 50 survivors. 50 survivors is the limit when normal speaking doesn't reach every survivor in a building.
    • Buildings are always targets for zombie attacks, especially listed safehouses. Ruined and zombie inhabited buildings can't have a transmitter, making the frequency useless until the buildings are restored. If the building is not a high profile location, having it restored might take a while.
    • Survivors may retune lone transmitter for their use. And even few are interested on keeping a transmitter up in a building with no other survivors.
  • Do understand that the frequencies are available for anyone to transmit and listen in. If you can't stand your frequency being spammed by rogue transmits or listened in by others, seriously consider having one in first place.
    • Radio list maintainers may occasionally transmit on your frequency to verify that it is running.
  • Do clean up your reservation if your group dissolves. It was easy to reserve, it is as easy to remove. Otherwise it will be left around for some time.
    • Radio list maintainers may mark unresponsive frequencies as available in a occasional list cleanup.

The Great Radio Group Massacre

Let's do what the The Great Suburb Group Massacre did to suburb pages, to the radio page.

I'll make a subpage of this page here, and let's get this started. It's long overdue.

-- Linkthewindow  Talk  22:39, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for getting this started. I've been meaning to do this for awhile now. Asheets 16:47, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Requesting To Add Station

Hi - I'd like to request that the 26.49 MHz frequency be returned to the Bandit Queens, who are no longer inactive. --SlowLoris 01:47, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Request not, add. You need not request. 03:11, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Hello There! I Am Requesting To Add 2 Stations To 28.04 MHz And 28.05 MHz For My News Station Channel 25 News. I Am Currently Building It Right Now But With Those 2 Stations I Can Get It Up And Running..

Thanks!, --Mysticlegacy Channel 25 News 06:52, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

Approved. We don't actually take requests, you add them. 05:47, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

RE: Oops Lol But Anyway Thanks!—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mysticlegacy (talkcontribs) at an unknown time.

Yeah, what Cory said. The only time you'll ever be asked is when we get around to doing another group massacre. Linkthewindow  Talk  06:58, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

Lol k I Was Just Making Sure --Mysticlegacy Channel 25 News 08:31, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

hi, 28.05 was previously Undeadites Rnrarrhradio... and we'd kind of like it to remain that way. We are not inactive, we broadcast frequently. we were even broadcasting during the time period that we were sent the "group massacre".--Surfincow 05:00, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

You can re-ad it. We can't possibly listen in and literally check all groups for activity, so doing by the wiki is the only way. Please reply in future so we don't have any problems. Linkthewindow  Talk  05:02, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
Ashate or Asheets (I mix them up) used to do some checking that way. 05:53, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
Well, yeah, I guess I could make a throw-away alt for such a purpose, but it would be too much effort (especially as a lot of channels are randomally spammed.) Anyway, I've re-added your channel for now, just please respond to such a massacre in future. Thanks! Linkthewindow  Talk  06:07, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
Thanks! it's just that the massacre was during the holiday season, when i for one probably payed the least attention to the wiki, i just didn't see it until yesterday! next time i'll be quicker to respond.--Surfincow 20:20, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi, I've noticed that the group using 28.69 is inactive, I was wondering if it would be ok if We Are Nice Guys claimed it. Thanks! --ShornSMan 22:56, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Approved. Request not, add them yourself. You need not request. However do not remove an existing group from the listing if it's active. There may be more than one group utilising a frequency.

04:22, 9 April 2009 (BST)

25.96 MHz: *crash* *static* *silence* (1 hour and 29 minutes ago)

I heard a crash and static on 25.96 mHz. How would that happen? I didn't think anybody could set a radio transmitter to those frequencies, which means the normal mechanic of a transmitter being destroyed would not do it, right? SIM Core Map.png Swiers 03:32, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

Strange.. Oh, you can tune, but not transmit, an oversight, methinks. Also, the phone number you mentioned if your site went down didn't work. 04:32, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

Prolonged static?

I saw a new one today during an RRF incursion: "26.70 MHz: *prolonged static*" Sorry -- didn't get a screenshot. What do you make of that? Asheets 16:25, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Hm, perhaps the crash of many transmitters? 18:40, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Request for review of frequency use

I would like to request that frequency 28.01, the "4chan spam channel", be considered for deletion. Spam is something that is not tolerated in urban dead. There are several anti-spam mechanisms in-game to prevent useless spamming, such as the "hoarse voice" message when characters excessively speak, a maximum number of characters per speech, and the option to mute characters in one's contacts list. Giving spammers an entire channel upon which to spam, swear and be vulgar is pointless and completely counters every anti-spam and anti-swearing mechanism available in the game. It also encourages further spamming. This, in turn, becomes a reflection on the entire UD community; "We can spam on this channel. This must mean spamming is okay."

Below is the description of the channel.

28.01 MHz - YE SPAM CHANNEL! (a.k.a 4chan Radio) The home of /b/tards, spam, rEaL_gAmEr, and idiocy itself. If you are dumb, this is the frequency you need to visit. Be advised that neither kevan, nor this wiki can be held responsible for any brain damage that may result from tuning into this frequency. Be aware that somebody has been using multiple characters and using all of their AP to spam the word "penis."

UD is a game for all ages. The content of "4chan Radio" is inappropriate, not "PG-rated" and not suitable for Urban Dead. If someone can spam "penis" repeatedly on this channel, but cannot do so when speaking, there is a discrepancy in the rules between what is allowed and what is accepted.

Purposely giving spammers an opportunity to spam is ridiculous. If they want to spam and, as the description said, "be stupid" then 4channers can do so on their own forums with their own friends. Urban Dead is not their personal spam-fest.

Regards, Chekken 05:32, 8 August 2009 (BST)

Yes, this is a huge spam channel, and it would be best to keep it that way. This channel is a haven for spammers. Istead of spamming on more important channels, the spammers will spew their terrible spam here. It is like a wall created for graffiti. It makes it so people won't vandalize other things. SilverMemoryPKMPR 05:38, 8 August 2009 (BST)
I'm glad that 4chan isn't spamming elsewhere, but advertising the channel for all the world to see isn't the best idea. My idea is that perhaps the description should be purged from the wiki. You could write "occupied" or something similar to show that it is taken, but not elaborate on the contents of the station. That way, 4chan has their..."outlet"...and Urban Dead has it's reputation intact. If 4chan users want to find the channel, they can find it advertised on their group page or on an external link. -- Chekken 05:53, 8 August 2009 (BST)
Well, if it's on the wiki, the spammers will see it. They then go there to do their spammings. If it isn't seen as the spam channel, the delinquents will go elsewhere for their shenanigans. Displaying it as 4chan Radio doesn't hurt UD's reputation. I believe a spam channel is a humorous and great idea. Keep it displayed as so! SilverMemoryPKMPR 06:13, 8 August 2009 (BST)
It has almost always been like this. It is well marked to what it is, and deleting the listing won't change its traditional use. Asheets 00:16, 9 August 2009 (BST)
Whether it is humorous or not, it is inappropriate for the game. Did you not hear me earlier? CHILDREN play this game! I know that I certainly wouldn't want MY kids seeing "penis" written all over the screen. Why not change the name, or something? It doesn't *have* to be the "spam channel". Why not change it into something more productive and/or positive, like "the shout out channel" or "the silly channel"? My problem here is with the content of the channel, not the listing. They can list their channel just like any other group, I don't have a problem with that. If you change the name of the channel, you change the stigma attached to it. It can still be...*sigh..."4chan radio", just with a positive twist. Can that be done? -- Chekken 04:35, 9 August 2009 (BST)
It was the spam channel long before it was described as such on the wiki, so the description is valid. I have, however changed the description, to remove the list of "idiots", and the reference to spamming "penis". No need to give them acknowledgment... just ignore them, and tune to something else -- boxy talkteh rulz 04:54 9 August 2009 (BST)
DUDE. This game is about ZOMBIES. DEAD PEOPLE WALKING IN THE STREETS EATING BRAINZ. THE WHOLE GAME IS INAPPROPRIATE FOR CHILDREN. If they are playing this game, I'm sure they know about life, death and buttsecks.--Orange Talk 05:02, 9 August 2009 (BST)
You'd think so but apparently not. Also apparently saying someone is african american on this wiki is vandalism. Just thought i'd get that in there ;) --xoxo 05:24, 9 August 2009 (BST)

What we have here is a player or players whose in-game RP persona is to zerg, change radio transmitters to 28.01, and broadcast spam. Altering the wiki doesn't and won't change what is going on in game. Be thankful that these folks are considerate enough not to pirate other frequencies. Asheets 15:55, 10 August 2009 (BST)

Change of 26.25

This as of until recently belonged to the Regulators Alliance which has disbanded a few weeks ago. Four of the members went on to create a new group Disposable Heroes. We will be taking the old RA frequency with us and posting here so as not to cause any confusion. Thank you.--John Blast 06:16, 25 September 2009 (BST)

Fort Transmission Frequencies

I attempted to broadcast on 25.97 MHz and 25.98 Mhz from within the Fort Creedy armoury. In both instances, I was unable to broadcast and received a message indicating that the frequency "is an external military frequency, and cannot be broadcast on." The transmitter was powered and I am trained in Radio Operation. For both frequencies, the External Military Frequencies section of this article indicates "Players must be in one of Malton's forts to transmit on this frequency." Anyone have any idea why this might be? Could this have changed, or am I doing something wrong? Can someone else please confirm that they are able to transmit on these frequencies from within the forts in Malton? Squideshi 15:43, 19 October 2009 (BST)

  • What building in the fort were you transmitting from? I think you have to be in a specific building... Asheets 17:31, 19 October 2009 (BST)
    • I was inside the Fort Creedy armoury. I moved to the Fort Creedy storehouse and attempted to broadcast on both frequencies. I was able to broadcast on 25.97 but not on 25.98. This leads me to believe that not only do you need to be in a certain building within each fort, but each fort has it's own secure frequency--25.97 MHz for Fort Creedy and 25.98MHz for Fort Perryn. Can anyone else confirm this? Squideshi 21:34, 19 October 2009 (BST)

The Enclave requests 27.02

Just wanted to pass this through the talk page before I edit anything. The Enclave is laying claim to 27.02 so if anyone has already claimed it please speak up. --Caffienatedjedi 02:18, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Rock 'n Roll. Have fun with it... Asheets 22:48, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

26.07

The Frequency of 26.07 MHZ needs to be changed to Mad Craskers as they that is their frequency as it has been for 5 years. The suburbs that belong to that frequency can find a new one. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Justinbronze (talkcontribs) at an unknown time.

Unless there is a radio broadcasting war between the Mad Craskers and people in that district I don't see any reason to change anything. --Maverick Talk - OBR Praise Knowledge! 404 07:45, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
Perhaps they could be at least listed on the frequency? --Justinbronze 12:40, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
No, the district list shouldn't be spammed up with every group that uses a frequency that has been dedicated to suburbs -- boxy talkteh rulz 21:12 19 February 2010 (BST)


27.55

add the boardsies to 27.55

27.59

I am making a group called the Anti-Bull Shitters and I was wondering if I could have this empty frequency for when the group is officially up and running?--No one ever pays Rufus in gum! 02:29, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

Yes, you may. Please be sure to format the entry correctly when you make your edits. Thanks, and good luck with your new group/freq. Asheets 16:23, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

Fort Creedy official frequency

Hi there. I see on the Fort Creedy page that the official frequency is 26.70, not 25.97. I propose we change it to 25.97, since there was a whole game update expressly for that purpose. S'okay? S'okay. -- User:Jordan Salafack » JS talk contribs » 02:00, 11 June 2010 (BST)

It might change local play conditions for the fort not to be able to talk to the mall, but if this is what a concurrence of players want, then go ahead and make the necessary changes. Asheets 15:48, 11 June 2010 (BST)
Well, uh, I don't really know if it is or not. That's sort of why I requested it here instead of just editing it...-- User:Jordan Salafack » JS talk contribs » 02:19, 12 June 2010 (BST)

Requesting unusedfrequency 27:75 for the group Malton Street Patrol

As a fastly growing group, having an own frequency is crucial to organise the team. We are already sending status updates on this frequency due to the fact that it is not used at all, but I would prefer making it official and putting our name on the list..

You're welcome to the freq. Be sure to link it to a group page and have fun with it! Asheets 00:12, 11 August 2010 (BST)
Yep, empty frequency are just up for grabs really. For hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee 00:27, 11 August 2010 (BST)

How many listeners?

Hello,

Is it possible to know how many listeners a radio frequency has? --Hermann von Teutoburg 20:30, 24 October 2010 (BST)

No, there's no way of doing that. For hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee 20:31, 24 October 2010 (BST)
Sorry mate, no way. But you can maximise your chances by changing all the radio trancievers in your area to the desired frequency, most people don't pay attention and won't notice. I used to do it all the time ^.^ -- LEMON #1 08:57, 26 October 2010 (BST)

26.80?

Alright I have run into some trouble with this frequency. Some group has been claiming that it is being used for all of Shearbank, while others say it is only used for the mall.--Chlornaphazine 13:10, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

Looking back at the history of the mall, there are records of radio broadcasts from the mall on 26.80 going back as far as 2008. Also, the frequency is listed in the Radio Group Massacre for the mall, and under the suburb page for shearbank there is a notice which explains that 26.80 is used for the mall and 26.09 is used for the suburb, but that most people tune to 26.80 (not sure if there's any way to verify this.)
So clearly 26.80 is historically used for the mall, and according to the wiki that is its official designation. However, radio broadcasts extend beyond the buildings where they are broadcast, and since Stickling is in Shearbank you probably shouldn't be too surprised if radio broadcasts from the mall include information about the suburb as well. In fact the history shows broadcasts from the mall discussing various suburb related topics. I can't imagine why there would be a problem with that, but if you or other players are having issues over broadcast usage it would be best resolved in-game, as the wiki seems pretty clear on the matter.--GANG Giles Sednik CAPD 13:36, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
