Last I had read was that they were migrating in late Q3 and Rice is moving 01 June... Oh how things change...

Pearl Street Dispatch (Rice and Steele Counties) will share 5 MCC7500 consoles, which means there will be 5 radio ID's for their dispatch consoles instead of the 500 there woudl be if they were using Gold Elites.

The bottom three talkgroups you have there are state talkgroups (Mn/DOT, MnDPS kinda stuff), but I am work right now, so I cant see if I have any notes about them in my little "Mastermind" spreadsheet...

Do you have a site number and cc/acc for the 26 th st site ??

851.03750
851.28750
851.40000
852.17500
852.95000
853.60000
853.85000

What confuses me about the 26th street site is that 851.40000 is the CC for the Faribault Site.. I was in Owatonna last night and from what i got 852.17500 was one of the CC's - but lets not mark that as confirmed yet. I was in NW Owatonna and I was gettting some weak signal from it when it should have been five bars...

I will be over there again soon to check it out again

 

[NDRADIONUT]

Do you have a way to determine the site number ?

 

[fwfdengine2]

Not right now.. Ill have to wait until i can get back within recieving range of the site

 

[NDRADIONUT]

Sounds good

Don't waste too much time hunting, 26th is not on yet.

 

[fwfdengine2]
