Do you not understand what i am asking are you using a scanner or that web page?
" I'm monitoring the Talk Groups from here:
Talkgroups Seen on System: Alabama Interoperable Radio System (AIRS) (broadcastify.com) . Should I be looking elsewhere". This qoute from you tells me your using the above web page to listen .So unless you have a scanner, your wasting your time trying to listen here.
THIS IS NOT A LIVE FEED NEVER HAS BEEN LIVE. when u click the live button it takes you to the broadcastify web page .To find a live feed on broadcastify . THERE ARE NO LIVE FEEDS ON BROADCASTIFY FOR SHELBY COUNTY . i dont have any idea on what the purpose of the above website is for other than testing purposes maybe.
If you can tell us what your trying to listen to the airs with i am pretty sure that you can get a lot more help .
Shelby county is site based meaning if your tryiing to hear helena on a scanner only . a helena unit must connect or Affiliate to a tower . example your not going to hear a helena unit on the montevallo site unless they are in range of it . At this time its not a simulcast system meaning one frequency or control channel would give you everything in shelby county .If you having issues hearing stuff it could be a lot of things like the model of the scanner programing, range control . antenna and the list goes on . At this time shelby county is a phase 1 p 25 system .
