I'm all for everyone going to AWIN, it is easier to monitor and has less problems hearing it VS the old Analog VHF or UHF systems, no static or nonsense just plain crystal clear voice. And yes Interop would be a really big point in all agencies going AWIN, everyone being on the same system...

I'm not going to argue with you it is pointless, there has never been any other use of the 13001 by any other groups other than Law enforcment, SO & PD. It is pointless to use a Phase 1 TG even with a Phase 2 radio it degrades the network the New Phase two TG's can handle twice the amount of...

The 13001 shows to be a P25 Phase 1 FDMA Talkgroup as listed in the database I have never seen my scanner indicate that it has P25 Phase 2 TDMA capabilities, Also OEM/fire are going to need new radios either way with their own ID's, they simply cannot use the radios the sheriff department was...

Sheriff Dispatch is TG 53743, Pocahontas Police Dispatch is TG 53794, Both of those are TDMA P25 Phase 2 Talkgroups, the OEM and Fire will get TDMA Phase 2 Talgroups of their own or maybe a combined Talkgroup, All agencies in Randolph County are eventually supposed to move to AWIN from what has...

Each agency has to sign an AWIN agreement and be issued radio ID's of their own and as of 2017 Phase 2 TDMA radios only will be issued ID's.

The phase 1 radios from the Sheriff's department can not be simply given to OEM for use on Talkgroup 13001 as the Sheriff Department would be personally responsable for the use of all those radios. I know I wouldn't except that responsablility if I was the Sheriff, just saying, plus those radio...

That would not make much sense to give a Phase 1 talkgroup to an agency whenever they are adding new Phase 2 talkgroups all the time I just got another hit on my scanner but didn't catch who was talking another phase 2 talkgroup off the site in Randolph County, they are upgrading not...

Yeah I know the area really good and I live about as rural as rural can get and the other frequency in use for fire/911 154.13 Simplex, sometimes it even comes in with a bit of static and sometimes I can only hear the dispatch traffic as the mobiles sometimes just don't make it into my scanner...

Ok so I see a new entry in the RR database for Ripley County: New 911/Fire - 153.785 Repeater with 158.775 input (NFM at Doniphan). There is a problem with this entry in my opinion, if you check the License for this frequency it shows countywide use but it is only 20 watts ERP, I live in rural...

Randolph County Sheriff has replaced their AWIN Dispatch Talkgroup 13001 with a new Phase 2 TG, as follows: AWIN Dispatch Talkgoup 53743 effective 4-15-2024. (Phase 2 scanner required to monitor.) Submission has been made for this to be added to the RR database, and this info has been added to...

That is a long way from Butler County, I have no idea how they operate there, but given that it probably has good cell coverage in that area they use FirstNet as primary, and maybe in other cities they also use their FirstNet as primary, but when operating in rural areas where that FirstNet has...

It's all good if folks want to believe false info in the Butler County RR under the Medic one section.

Oh, and by the way if they have abandoned all other coms except for the XM'5, someone please explain to me how they can be observed talking to almost every single dispatcher in Southeast Missouri and Northeast Arkansas. And the traffic is not being relayed to the dispatch in Jonesboro I know...

Sharp fire also now using NXDN 155.925 15 RAN Countywide, for now this is low use but I'm sure it will change just like with the Sheriff.

Yeah I get that you can't hear those goofy XM'5's because they are on the cellular network, but I just said the info on them only using the XM'5's was wrong because I hear them all the time on various frequencies so they have not "abandoned", Key word, ABANDONED, using VHF and UHF frequencies...

Yeah I was looking over the WLRC Medical website and it does show the four ambulance services they operate on the East Coast, impressive, I also looked over each of the four on their respective webpages, they serve very large areas, and I looked them up on RR and they have various licenses over...

Well, that being said maybe they are using something like this impressive transceiver which would integrate it all together: https://www.motorolasolutions.com/content/dam/msi/Products/apx-next1/apx-next-data-sheet.pdf

I hear them on both sides of the boarder AR/MO and I monitor all EMS and 911 frequencies in the surrounding area. they are most definitely using a mixed bag of coms, and almost every mode that is out there Analog/NXDN/DMR/P25 Phase 1 and 2/LTR, seems to be no end to the modes they operate on nor...

There has been conflicting information concerning Medic One, I would like clarification if anyone can shed some light on this, in the Butler County section of the RR database it states that Medic One abandoned VHF and UHF in favor of FirstNet, however I have personally observed this to be false...

An update to that story: Randolph County Sheriff and Pocahontas Police use AWIN as Primary Dispatch their TG's are listed in the database. You need a Phase 2 scanner to monitor the Pocahontas Police TG as it is P25 Phase 2 TDMA. They also use partial encryption so at times you may only catch...
