that sounds accurate
you are correct sir. you have to understand, even though the NYSP and DEC are STATE agencies, they each have their own "sandbox" to play in, radio-wise. as long as the sand isn't mixed together, everyone is happy. what ought to happen, in all reality, is the SP Statewide channel should be available and used by any and all state level law enforcement agency - DEC, Parks, SUNY, etc. to communicate with not only each other but also a Troop Control Point in case of, you know, the "stuff" hits the fan. drop the Interagency channel in favor of the NIMS channels and then they can talk to everyone else. plus, 9 times out of 10, the state boys will have a county 9-1-1 MRD channel tuned in anyhow for collaborative countywide law enforcement operation. trust me, as a taxpayer I'm totally mystified by the myriad of radio systems at the state level for law enforcement. don't even get me started on the IT side of things!
