Question
Why does one admin go through the work of adding TGs to the database the correct way then another admin come along and changes them to their liking or ask questions in the database instead of asking in this group? I hate importing TGs or anything of that matter from the database into my scanner than having to go back through and deleting question marks or other statements or weird stuff in the description.

If you can give some specifics as to the errors, preferably by using the Submission tab on the database we will get them fixed.

Anyone up north here live and monitor T102-So Cook on the outskirts, living in Joliet I receive 4 bars on T102, but when the system chooses the freqy 770.94375 it reverts to one bar and I loose the audio till it drops and picks up one of the other freqys on T102 ??...It takes some watching of the system but its kind of weird....

Hancock County Sheriff testing on site 211 tonight, on talkgroup 20. Dispatch side being simulcasted to VHF. Fire, which is normally simulcast onto the sheriff repeaters, is not being sent to StarCom. Dispatch RID is 409736, all others showing RID 334. Will keep an eye out for new RIDs or talkgroups.

Anyway to discern between Phase I and Phase II talk groups on this system? I'll be visiting again next month and was hoping to use my G5.

The P2 talkgroups are marked with "T" in the database. However, if there's a Phase 1 radio affiliated with the talkgroup or it's on a non-P2 site, it will be in Phase 1 :) (Like the NWCD fire talkgroups from time-to-time)

I'm getting a site 517 from downtown Chicago with RIDs in the Cook County range. Phase II traffic on TGs 25195-25197. CC on 853.8375. Encrypted (of course).

McLean Co TG 30392

Yesterday heard TG 30392 in McLean Co. Appeared to be a simulcast of McLean Co Rural Fire pages on 156.210. Heard fire units communicating with METCOM on 154.190 so I think this TG is for paging only.

For the admin that said to check the NAC for 225 Warsaw, it was 144 and correct in the DB up until at least this past Thursday, when I left the area. Also as of a couple weeks ago, Augusta, Warsaw, Niota, and Macomb are all showing Phase II capable, but I did not see any such traffic on them. Did not check Mendon but I'm guessing it is P2 as well or will be very soon.

The only current license on that freq is WQNY254 - Cook County Sheriff's Police Department at 26th & California (courts and jail). Other repeaters at that location and covered by that license include the following:

851.2875
851.575
851.825
852.1375
852.7125
852.800
852.850
853.125
853.2375
853.5875
853.6125

Are you still able to monitor that control channel, Awesomeman92? It would be great to be able to confirm these freqs as being active with that CC and then add this site to the Radio Reference database.

Thanks for the info!
