I originally posted these over in the STARCOM21 thread under the Illinois state list, but didn't get any responses. Can anybody answer my question about the display of patched talkgroups?

After the transmission completed, it the display showed: TGID: 7295, without the trailing 7205.

I checked the database, and neither talkgroup, 7295, or 7205 are listed. What I'm wondering is, was this a patched talkgroup? Is anybody familiar with how a patched talkgroup would be displayed on a SDS100?

================================================================

So, I just saw the same type of display today, this time TGID: 8727 7023

It was St. Clair County CENCOM paging out Sauget VFD for a mutual aide call for Cahokia FD.

After the transmission, the display showed: TGID: 8727, without the trailing 7203, just like before.

Any ideas?

I answered it there for you too. CENCOM is simulcasting on two talk groups. That's how the display shows up on the SDS 100 in ID Search mode.
