...Yeah its going to take some getting used to. I really miss PACS too. Any fully agree about the excitement level.:(

Logged last night on the The Calgary Municipal Radio Network (Calgary Municipal Radio Network) trunk - CFD is assisting with the nightly fire works display. Last night they were using Tac B7 (North Fireground) talkgroup 14608. Fireworks went at 11:20 PM. I will try and listen in again tonight. Not sure how they are being assigned the Tac channel - it might be as needed or maybe they have a standing authorization to use it.

More logging from the Wicom Solutions DMR trunk (Wi-COM Solutions ):

It looks like the Stampede is using this system for a good portion of its communications during the event. Makes sense to get rentals for a 10 day event and not buying more radios for the inhouse system. The down side is they are not connected and users have to either carry another portable for the Stampedes Motorola system (Calgary Stampede Network ) or a cell phone or both. Loggings:

16 - ?
17 - ? "Indian 2 to Rope Square" - Indigenous parade downtown today
18 - ? "Indian 1 to Indian 2"
24 - ?
25 - Enviro Educators (Environmental Spill Cleanup)
26 - Stampede Cleaning
32 - ? Grandstand Concessions Ops?
36 - Stampede Transport
37 - Stampede Parade Marshals/ some post parade chat
38 - Stampede Animal Safety (No longer on the Stampedes in-house system)
39 - ? Noted during Stampede parade only
40 - ?
44 - Stampede Guest Services - Missing Children
46 - ?
48 - ? Financial Services Ops?
50 - ? Corral Operations - lots of chat about shows in the corral

Having a very difficult time with my BCD325P2 getting transmissions on this capacity plus system. I seem to be missing about 80 % of what is going on (Confirmed by standing beside a Stampede employee using one of these radios). I'm not 100% convinced that the LCNs for this system are correct but I don't have DSD decoding to confirm. Also I am noticing a problem with the way the radio decodes time slots when it is passing audio. In some cases I will hear the opposite time slot that I am listening to when there is a pause in the transmission - it sounds like one long transmission with 2 different conversations at the same time. Looked at a bunch of threads on this behavior (I'm not the only Uniden user experiencing this) - seems like a problem with how the radio handles RAS?
