I'm up in PA and this definitely seems to be coming from the Hagerstown area, possibly this license?

Address is the Washington County Sheriff Office, I'm thinking this may be used by the detention center, heard traffic that sounds like could be dealing with inmate movements (unlocking doors, sending someone to medical, etc.) Anyone down closer to that area hear anything here or able to confirm this?

It’s simulcast from multiple sites OR the closest site to the first due company. Depends on the county’s needs and how they spec’d the system to operate.

Nope. The paging system transmits from multiple sites in the county. What is unclear is if the page is simulcast from all sites at once, or if the dispatcher selects the paging site closest to the incident/fire companies involved.

This isn't the paging system, that is on 453.650.

Oops, sorry - I was thinking the FD paging system.

The Fire paging frequency is simulcast, takes the guess work out of it for the dispatcher (like every other county). I think the op is talking about the jail frequency though.

Which if this is for the detention center, it isn't in the database anywhere. The only thing for the detention center are a pair of 2 possible talkgroups on the trunk system.

Submit it, maybe it was to much traffic for the trunked radio system and they moved them back to this system, who knows!

Yea i just wanted to be sure that's what it was first. It is definitely the detention center.
