There is a submission saying that EDACS is off the air as of this afternoon, but I am in Carrizo Springs for another week and can't confirm. Can anyone check on this?
Alamo Area Regional Radio System (AARRS)
- Thread starter troubadour1318
- Start date
No signals on any sites.
Well…..I guess that makes it official…..I think that system has been up as long as this site
Suggestions for monitoring SAPD, FD, SO?
They switched from an old Motorola smartmet system to the EDACS I think 02/03
And their reasoning for for choosing GE (or whoever they were then)??? Supposedly it was “time to get screwed by someone other than Motorola”.
SAPD is fully encrypted on all channels. SO is partially encrypted with a few units in the clear, but most are encrypted. The FDs are in the clear, and some of the smaller towns and some of the school district PDs, and the best scanner would be the Uniden SDS 100 or a Unication G5 pager/scanner. It's a phase II simulcast system.
I have a SDS 100, is SAFD jus a matter of a reprogram and, if encrypted, anything to do to receive law enforcement?
Thanks
Get a job with SAPD.
Appreciate them, but nah. Thanks allGet a job with SAPD.
I remember that. They had all kinds of issues at first.
Is the provoice system still active, but no one talking on it or did they shut it down all together?
See this post, and a couple after it. The ProVoice system now appears to be offline.
Thank You. Wasent sure if it was a no traffic issue or the system was complete off line.
