I'm new to all this trunking, 800 mhz, P25 stuff..

Thanks in advance...

Those are all trunking system sites. They are part of a large state wide system. The 2 would be like district 2 site 051 the 33 is the hex number for 51. Each frequency is part of that site. Most state wide systems a local town or county would only be allowed to use sites in their area for local use but may have a state wide interop fleet programmed into their radios.

 

[SouthernRoller]

Those 3 mentioned sites are within a 10 mile radius of me, so if i did zipcode programming on a Hp1 would it scan these sites?
Also like on this one what does "D" in the mode column mean?
4606 11fe D ASHESO Ashe County Sheriff Law Dispatch

 

[rivardj]

The frequencies with an a at the end are alternate or backup control channels. The frequencies with a C at the end are the primary or main control channel for that site.

The D in the mode column means it is digital modulation and requires a digital scanner to listen. An E in theode column means that the talk group is encrypted and can not be listened to unless it is unencrypted, which is not possible with a scanner or scanning software.

 

[buddrousa]

As I understand the sites have a address and if you do a zipcode with a 25 mile search yes along with a large block of data you might not want to hear. You could import into groups the things you want to hear and have faster scans.

 

[SouthernRoller]

How would one know what is a data freq?

 

[SouthernRoller]

I'm mainly interested in Sheriff, Fire, EMS and Highway patrol for Ashe county.

 

[W8RMH]

How would one know what is a data freq?

Any frequency could be used for data. This is all assigned by the control channel.

 

[buddrousa]

copy the close sites and enter the talkgroups you want to hear.

Being in Ashe County, what could i expect to hear from these sites?
And if I set up a Hp1 by the zipcode, would it automatically load these?

I hope this doesn't sound to much like a smart tail, but with those 3 sites. I'd say everything in Ashe County, as well a good bit of Watauga and Avery County, possibly some western Alleghany and northern Wilkes county traffic (local agencies and all depending what those individual counties and agencies have allowed with regard to what sites that each talkgroup can access). NCSHP (Via NEWTON Radio) should be good for TRP F DIST 2 & 3 as well as other state and federal users that may be in the area.

Hope that's makes a little bit of sense.

Threads merged.

 

[SouthernRoller]

Thanks, i'm old school. And was having difficulty understanding trunking, talkgroups, and all this P25 stuff...I was trying to figure out what does what...

 

[mikewazowski]

No problem. Keeping it all in once place will hopefully get you the answers you need.

 

[Drafin]

Well like I said in the other thread where you were asking a similar question, zip code scanning is not really a great way to go if you are wanting to listen to something specific and not going to be mobile with the scanner. I'd refer you back to this thread and my original reply for more information.

Would NCSHP Troop F div 2 be broadcasting on one of these?

52190 says ashe county, so yes.

 

[SouthernRoller]

So if i were to program for NCHP Troop F Div 2, Would i just go to NCHP Troop F Newton or
one of these?

Don't over complicate it. Add the Ashe County sites, then add the highway patrol talkgroups then press scan. Newton is merely the communications center, there is no site there.
