I am trying to better understand how all these 800MHz trunked systems work. I am not completely stupid with it, but some of it just makes very little sense to me. When I try to have it explained by some, I get lost in translation.
What are the different systems in Colorado? - DTRS, West Metro/Lakewood, Denver (MetroNet?), Westy (?), FRCC
Are these different systems using different 800MHz frequencies?
How do the MAC and Network First talkgroups tie into each of these systems? (I think the NF are IP connected but not sure on the MAC's).
Can a talkgroup on DTRS work on FRCC or other system if given the info? (System Keys, NAC's, etc.)
When someone says "channel" in reference to a repeater, I am sure they are not talking about a talkgroup so what is a channel? Is this a trunked channel?
What are some causes that would have a handheld XTS2500 hit a repeater (gets the chirp with pressing the PTT) but no voice being transmitted?
Thanks for any insight.
