SAGRN Paging Decoder

This site has been updated to include some different pager feeds and methods of displaying the data. There are now two different feeds coming from two separate pager decoders. These are provided by people who have setup a scanner, PDW and some custom software to process and upload the decoded feed to this site.

This gives both some redundancy in the event of a single computer or internet link failing and also gives users of this site a choice between which feed they prefer. There are slight differences in pager message tags and there will be the odd pager message appearing in one feed and not the other, due to PDW, as with 'real' pagers, missing the odd message.

Here are the paging feeds displayed in the traditional format:
Traditional feed1
Traditional feed2

Live Paging Feeds

The main new feature in this site upgrade is the addition of 'live' paging feeds in near real-time. Instead of waiting up to 5-7 minutes to see a pager message appear on the web after it is transmitted on the paging network, this will show them generally within approximately 30 seconds.

This has two big advantages over the old way: firstly the pager messages are decoded and displayed on the web much quicker than before and, secondly, it is better suited to viewing on a mobile phone or other device where you pay for data downloaded. The reason is that rather than downloading the full file of pager messages every 5 minutes, including the pager messages already seen, only new pager messages not previously displayed are downloaded.

Live feed 1
Live feed 2

Other Custom Paging Feeds

Various other customised pager message display 'filters' are available for both paging feeds:
Customised Feed 1 filters
Customised Feed 2 filters

Feedback and Addition or Removal Requests

As before, all constructive feedback is welcomed. Some effort has been put in to only show paging groups and similar 'public' pager messages, if your individual private pager ID appears on this site and you would like it removed please send an email with the details to the site admins. Similarly if new paging groups are created that do not appear here, or you notice errors in the pager message tags, please email the site admins.
