Heads UP!
There were a LOT of "new" talkgroups in the Caddo 911 system, too many to catch the info off of.
When I tried to re-do the Bossier Public Safety bank, some how I managed to "unlock" my Caddo 911 bank.
:-( I started getting EVERYTHING, Dog Catcher, Water Dept, Garbage trucks, stuff I really don't care to hear. BUT, as a "bonus", I started getting talk groups in the 1100 bracket and some in the 3100's that were being used as Emergency frequencies to the shelters, relief buses, medical care, etc.
There has also been some "weird tones & fax machine sounds" on SFD Tac-4. I do know one day they were having a lot of trouble out of the MDT's in the trucks. They may have been trying to correct the system. (????)
Looks like I'm going to have to hard reformat the Pro-95. I hate do to that as I have to "manually" program in all frequencies, talk groups, and alpha tags. Yes, I have the proper cable and software. But, I can't get to the back of the wife's computer to plug the cable in to do the programming. She has it in a desk cabinet and wired too "short" to move it out. It's litterally a real "pain" with arthritis to try and get the computer out of that cabnet, so I just program, manually.
This time, I'm leaving out the Bossier Parish Sheriff and all the State Police frequencies. Because of my "challanges", I'm not driving much and never get out that way any more. I'm not even driving to Waskom, TX to see my nearly 90 year old Mom. I do talk to her on the 'phone daily though.
Hurricane Mid-season is Sept. 10th, there's still plenty of time for the Gulf Coast to get another "Katrina", so Heads UP! I'm going to leave the Caddo 911 system, "unlocked" to see if the new talk groups continue, but I'll lock-out the usual 'Bravo Sierra', LOL!
Respectfully Submitted,
73,
