I’ve got an SDS100 scanner. Great beginner scanner I guess? I’ve got some frequencies for the NCSHP. I do not have any TGIDs. How do I go about getting them? I’ve used the software for the scanner and added the “common” freqs and TGIDs added automatically. I understand there’s no formal list, just what’s been added here on RR. I’ve found and have been given frequencies but without the TGID I think they’re useless?

could you post the freqs ?
and/or did you check to see if they are in the database.
on this one, the counties are in alphabetical order.

First the SDS100 is the most advanced up to date scanner out there, not a beginners model.
Second, if you want NCSHP frequencies or talkgroups all you have to do is look in the RR database

If you want the NCSHP Radio IDs, the basic ranges and some specific ones are available in the RR wiki

A little searching on the site will reveal lots of information you and others need.
Is there another name for a talk group because I didn’t see anything specifically mention I don’t believe. I have searched and found a lot of information. I found sites, frequencies but I apparently overlooked the tgid.
No other names for a talkgroup from a Uniden standpoint. Also you didn't specify what app you're using: Sentinel? Proscan? something else? In Sentinel, use the tree view to select state, "statewide", ...VIPER, then select your county and you should see the talkgroups on the right-hand side. Select the talkgroups you want to add then right-click "Append to favorites list"

Thank you for the list. I just started from scratch with my favorite list. Now, whenever I try to download something with a Viper the entire list down loads in Sentinel. It did not used to do that. Lol so I will definitely give you a list of try.

Please let me know how the file works for you.
This is almost EXACTLY what I had as a favorite list initially. Installed without issue. Not sure but I think we're on the same wave length in regards to what we'd like to hear.
