OSP Central Oregon - Now on OSRP

ScanRite · Nov 3, 2017

All OSP units are switching over to the OSRP P25 system.

If you're monitoring VHF, you will not hear anything. If there is a unit still transmitting on VHF they'll be patched to the P25 system.

My understanding is that VHF will be patched full time to the TRS system. Much like what Benton/Linn counties are doing. Even if no one is using vhf you still here TRS traffic on main VHF repeater. That not the case in Central Oregon?

That's what I figured it would be. But it's not. VHF is dead at the moment. Other than a few stragglers that haven't been programmed yet.

VHF is active when dispatch is doing a broadcast, attempt to locate, etc., or communicating with a non-trunk programmed unit. It is not a full time patch.

Ok, I guess that set up in Central oregon, is not same as what there going be doing in Eugene area.

Also heard ODOT on "District 10 North" was removing a deer on Highway 97 on 40423 ".

I think you mistyped.

Should be 38348. Seems to be the encrypted Fish and Game channel.

I am hearing a lot of patched digital and analog traffic on several area OSP VHF channels. It also sounds like they have been having quite a bit of trouble with their MDT's.

Baker845 · Nov 17, 2017

which VHF channels are patched?

ScanRite · Nov 17, 2017

Just got back from vacation. Sounds like BP1 154.785 is patched full time now. Odd though, the patch ID doesn't come on now, unless there's a VHF unit on the air. The rest of the transmissions just seem to pop up on VHF. GC 1/2 aren't online that I've heard.

Baker845 · Nov 18, 2017

From what i been told and understand, patches from TRS to VHF repeaters were going be normal in area's like Bend,Eugene, and Salem.

ScanRite · Nov 18, 2017

Something must have happened early this morning, I think around 4am or so, but all OSP units are back on VHF.

ki7fk · Nov 18, 2017

This afternoon I heard OSP dispatch broadcast a message for all units to switch to digital and away from VHF. It was quiet for awhile but I heard activity back on VHF later. There was a possibility that it had to do with assisting local law enforcement with a case and that was the reason for going digital. I am not sure what to make of it, but it is interesting.

I went back to around 3am on my recordings and heard a few units calling dispatch and dispatch wasn't responding. A few hours ago the patrol units were back on 700. Gremlins I guess..
