The PSAP is now directly on the core - there are no plans to consolidate. Here's an older article with some information.

There are many reasons why someone wouldn't be able to provide specifics or details. I was merely confirming things others had already stated, and if that isn't welcome I apologize.

Cool! I'll delete them!

I just am :)

I was under the impression that Stanford Heights operated a "record and forward" type repeater that activates when tones are received.

I'm pretty sure Guilderland talk groups are not carried by the Metro Cell.

You might be better off getting a Unication G5 pager, since you’re a McKownville volunteer. I don’t personally own one, but I’ve heard very good things about them.

No clue what they are - Guilderland has started to install equipment, but haven't done much else yet with the new system.

Guilderland is starting the process to switch over. Expected to be online mid-2018. https://altamontenterprise.com/11222017/34m-guilderland-budget-includes-300k-new-dispatch-system Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You might be better off writing software to parse the rip n run sheet. Set up a fax machine to save it as a pdf, run text recognition on that, read the relevant data, and send that out. Probably a lot of work, but more reliable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yep, that's the problem I was talking about!

I work in Guilderland, NY which is located just west of Albany, NY. We occasionally receive ambulance to hospital reports to Porter Medical Center in Middlebury on our repeater. The transmission comes over our repeater, so I assume that it's coming in on the input, which is 158.970. We never...

Thank you for the info! I'm excited to have a better system, and definitely looking forward to having paging on VHF.

Any updates?

Use the iPhone app "Radio ID" to decode QCII tones (as well as MDC1200, GESTAR, etc).

Has anyone had any success monitoring this system using RTL SDRs?

Mechanicville fire still uses VHF to communicate with the city dispatcher. They also use Tac39 for that purpose. They had set up an 800 to VHF rebroadcast on their second frequency, but I believe that is inactive at this point.

For the record, I fixed this by doing an apt-get dist-upgrade. Everything now works perfectly.
