[Spec]

What tower or your location of your catch ? I'm making an assumption it's in Orange Co, but that is merely an assumption.

Schunnemunk Mountain

Well to answer my own question this is a simulcast of WALLKILL PD on 460.350

 

[sc800]

What is that in DEC? I am running Unitrunker, and I want to see if I can pick it up.

This evening I'm hearing an ID not heard before - on the Illinois system - City of Middletown Police on 04-061. Transmissions are simulcast on 155.73 MHz.

 

[sc800]

I'm hearing it too. So that is confirmed as well

 

[sc800]

Also the Port Jervies talk group, I believe is no longer "future"

Sheriff's Corrections Car 829, which I believe is the one of the perimeter cars just affiliated to it.

EDIT: Still no activity from PJ so I don't know if it has been hooked up on their side yet.

pj police dispatch does not use 155.730 anymore they are now on 158.8425

OK here is another talk group on Schunnemunk Mountain

05-081

anyone ID ???

 

[sc800]

What's the DEC form of that, so I can watch for it

I also have a new talk group. DEC 521, LIDs are OC Sheriff units, but just "Joins" not "Call" in Unitrunker

 

[pro92b]

0521 = 04-011
I have also logged 522 and 524 with affiliations only
05-081 is listed as filter plant in my notes. 05-xxx are generally public works groups.
Attached is a chart for converting AFS to hex and decimal.

04-111 is Woodbury Police main dispatch. That talkgroup must be linked now between Arden/Beacon and Schunnemunk

 

[SCPD]

04-021 OCSD

04-037 PD 800

04-043 Town of Middle Hope PD Tac

04-061 City of Middletown PD Dispatch

04-083 Town of Newburgh PD Patrol

04-111 Woodbury / Harriman PD

Heard all these in Hopatcong, Sussex County, from the Graham Tower.

 

[APX8000]

04-021 OCSD
04-037 PD 800
04-043 Town of Middle Hope PD Tac
04-061 City of Middletown PD Dispatch
04-083 Town of Newburgh PD Patrol
04-111 Woodbury / Harriman PD
Heard all these in Hopatcong, Sussex County, from the Graham Tower.

The two new talkgroups on the system are links to Middletown PD's VHF and Wallkill PD's UHF repeaters as such:

04-061 Middletown PD, LID 387 simulcasted on Schunnemunk and Graham towers full-time.
04-063 Wallkill PD, LID 388 simulcasted on Schunnemunk and Sam's Point towers full-time.

Expect a Pot Jervis link as well. I'm guessing 04-062.

The Sheriff's and POLICE 800 talkgroups as well as the majority of the County talkgroups are simulcasted full-time off all towers regadless of unit affiliation. They are full-time simulcasts.

For example, Town of Newburgh is full-time off Beacon (primary), Arden and Sam's Point. Woodbury is full-time off Schunnemunk (primary), Arden and Beacon. Even if every unit is affiliated to the primary tower, you will hear traffic on all three. Other agencies include Cornwall, City of Newburgh, etc.

Others are set differently to conserve bandwidth to avoid the busy tones, like Blooming Grove. You will not hear them on Arden on their 04-052 talkgroup unless that talkgroup is selected as the primary on the radio screen and a unit afiliates. This is the reason why the county ones are full time simulcasts....if you are a Sheriff's unit and your radio is set on the Sheriff's talkgroup, you will not hear any traffic on the polling channel if you had to wait for a a unit to select that talkgroup and affiliate to that tower to pass traffic even though it's in your scan list.

If a unit travels outside of those towers coverage area to another area and the radio is on that talkgroup, then you will hear the traffic passed on that tower. That is why you may hear Woodbury pop on Sam's Point, etc.

Hope this helps.

The Illinois tower hosts many of the Orange groups as well. The attachment is a log of groups and radio IDs from Illinois.

Thank you for list .

I may have over looked it but
did not see 05-081

I am getting many hits while logging in butel software.
Unfortunately I was not listening to radio when id was logged.

Can anyone Identify talk group ?

 

[pro92b]

05-081 only appears in my logs for Beacon tower. They identified as "filter plant" which is a sewage treatment plant, maybe in Newburgh.

 

[SCPD]

05-081 heard here in Hopatcong, NJ. I didn't hear what was said, guick transmission.
