Woodbridge pagers

Will reach out to a few people to see if they know when this will take place

I have heard from a reliable source that Woodbridge is going to have pages on the current OEM, PD1, or PD2 they are not sure but one of them. Also we will be staying on 33.82Mhz for awhile until all the FD's can get new pagers. If anyone else has more info let me know.

Thanks

Test do not respond

Judging by the spotty coverage PD2 gets my guess would be they'll have the pagers on PD1. I'll see what my buddies know.

 

[robertpearsall]

hope they dont try to use wpd 6 thats even worse

The App is for the OEM Freq 478.9125 1000 pagers & 50 Moblies mutiple repeater sites 100Watts with much higher ERP so i think you can rule out the other channels

TAC-1!!!! RIP to that vehicle. anyway on the frequecy progress... Last i heard it was all changing over this August. OEM has all new radios and i think the police have theirs already, at least portable. Paging is going to either PD1 or OEM11 with the 33.820 remaining until the pagers are switched over, i think they are still trying to decided. Other then that.... thats all i know thus far.

I think things would be a lot more efficent if woodbridge was paged on the old OEM channel. Also, looks like it shouldn't be too long for them to go to digital trunking. http://www.twp.woodbridge.nj.us/LinkClick.aspx?fileticket=c3nvr38kiJ0=&tabid=214&mid=1925

$500K ? I think the price tag is going to be much more then $500K for what they're proposing.

 

[robbinsj2]

From the press release (emphasis is mine):

"Mayor McCormac noted that the $500,000 in federal funding will allow Woodbridge Township (the fifth largest municipality in the state of New Jersey) to continue to implement a comprehensive police/EMS radio communications system that is currently under construction.

Just $500,000 from the federal government to help them get to the next step, not to completely pay for everything.

 

[Tac-1]

Thats the amount of the federal grant the taxpayers will more pick up the rest

A lot of testing on the new pager channel today sounds good & ready ready for its debut

 

[scannersnstuff]

anyone grab a tone ?. do they have one ?.

 

[Tac-1]

yea during testing 118.8 kept coming up i leave CS until they start using it to be sure

 

[scannersnstuff]

i tried to listen to it in csq. last night.nassau county pd was driving me nutzzola.

 

[CERT6]

yes...nassau county is a pain with the frequency. i have not picked up on any tones yet either specific to the company being paged. A lot of testing around the township yesterday i heard with positions and testing the ranges it sounded like and if it was a clear page or not. Getting there.....

 

[Tac-1]

a lot of testing today on the new page freq PL tone 118.8 voice only no page tones i think voice comms will be 118.8 and paging open CS
