Any of you Daviess county guys interested in starting a scanning club?

This last statement is the smoking gun. I probably mis-diagnosed the situation by assuming an internal scanner bug. Electro Magnetic Interference (from other scanners, wifi, computers, passing vehicles, florescent lights, you name it) is a more than likely culprit.

This seems unnecessary for KSP communications purposes. Scanners might be employed for other reasons, or they may be seen as a distraction to the critical mission of the KSP. For officer safety I assume that direct two way communication is preferred.

But, I have been wrong a couple of times before before.

We both could be wrong or right. It's just how I hear it. When we listen to a simplex frequency on our radio system from a Pro-197 you don't hear that slight tone at the end, but when we listen to the repeater frequency, you'll hear it for about a second at the end. I dunno, I may be confused as to what I'm saying. I'm in Ohio for school right now, but I'm going back to Boyd this weekend, so I'll leave a recorder on my headphone output & record what I'm talking about & see if it's the same thing as he's hearing on KSP...

@ sound_efex, in reference to your PM, I know.

It's cool. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong.

Is anyone having problems hearing Post 5 - Campbellsburg, Post 4 - E-town and Post 12 - Frankfort.

It's been several days since I've heard anything from either Post. Living in Louisville I've had no problems before hearing either of the Posts. I've re-entered all the frequencies using Win500 but nothing. I'm using a Pro106.

Has something changed?

Thanks,

Paul

Anyone Using HP-1, PSR800, or BC396XT to monitor the P25 Conventional Talkgroups On KSP's system?

Also, same question KEMA and Kentucky Utilities.

PM me - I'd like to compare notes...

I have heard that DSD will also show conventional TG's

Notes from a trip to the Owensboro area this AM:

For KSP Post 2, monitored several transmissions off the Sacramento tower.
For KSP Post 16, monitored several transmissions off Reed, Cloverport, Whitesville, & Henderson towers.

It appears talkgroup ID (TGID) = 1 is the P25 conventional talkgroup for dispatch for both KSP Post 2 & 16.

Radio ID's for the dispatch consoles:
200001 Console 1 for Post 2
200002 Console 2 for Post 2
200003 Console 3 for Post 2

likewise,
1600001 Console 1 for Post 16
1600002 Console 2 for Post 16
1600003 Console 3 for Post 16

Individual trooper radio ID's are random in nature and have no observable correlation to unit numbers.

What are You using to see this, I tried pressing func + tune, and all I get is the nac.

A PSR-800 not a 500...

Thank You

You are correct.
Same for 4,7,11,12, and 15
When programmed correctly. The radio will show a unit # instead of the "random radio I'd"

Let me clarify the statement...

the individual trooper RID's show no discernible pattern in relationship to unit numbers/badge numbers...

RonnieUSA · #**354** (**permalink**) 01-25-2013, 2:37 PM

Been noticing lots of Mods to KSP License this month, anyone know whats up with all of this.

Here is a link for yesterdays list.

I have no idea what you're looking at, but wouldn't the radio ID be more like a serial number or property tag number that would stay with the radio no matter who it was assigned to?
