I have 18128 as North P - 32 (Bordentown Twp. PD). It was turned off after they went to Central dispatch.
Maybe it's still used as a secondary PD channel?

18128 has been recycled to Countywide Inquiry 3. Hillmans Bus Service is a single channel LTR system.

Looks like TGID 17840 has to be added back into the RR db. Last year labeled as NE FIRE PD, coming up as a Wildcard. Don't know the current name. With all the fires around today, heard multiple calls on 17840 for "staging". At 11a when I drove by Tabernacle FD on 206 had all its equipment out of the house, looks they had just returned from a call. Wind is quite strong; flags are straight out. Joint base MAFB/FD have their hands full.

TG 17840 is NE Fire Police, will remain until the Fire/EMS radios are reprogrammed later this year. Woodland Twp (Dist 29) was moved to the NE zone a month ago, the East TG's are being turned off. Joint Base fire was held to 150 acres, majority of ops were on the 2 JB TG's which are patched into the Air Force system. Most Fire/EMS Burlco radios have these TG's, most users don't know that.

Does anyone know what NW P - 14 18768 will be used 4 yet?

The only info I have is last Dec Jeff said it would be for "future use." I just leave a Wildcard programmed to perhaps catch an overlooked talkgroup such as encountered yesterday in all the fire communications.

Reprogramming was at the request of the various Chief's Associations, there were just too many TG's. That's better than Bucks Co, where there are not enough TG's. Fire/EMS is not finalized, it will be basically a removal of some unused TG's. NE FDF is now renamed JBMDL F(ire)1 and NE FDE is now renamed JBMDL F(ire) 2.

The district listing at Scanning NJ: Burlington has been updated to include Google Map links to the county Central Communications towers and the NJ FFS fire towers. Based upon the postings above the map image has been updated to move Woodland Twp to the NE zone. Hope everything is sited to the right townships; I think they are. HTH.

trsundstrom;

I found a few issues with your NJFFS fire tower locations.
1. Medford Lakes is Medford Tower
2. Pemberton is New Lisbion Tower (Woodland)
3. Woodland is Batsto Tower

Thanks

Thanks for the feedback. I used a combination of NJDEP-Parks and Forests and the FCC ULS licensing data.

Are you saying the links do not show the correct towers at the coordinates specified? I know Google Maps using coordinates do not always identify the municipality properly. Or in my Web page's table do I have the tower in the wrong municipality?

For example, I'm not exactly sure where the Medford Twp/Medford Lakes Borough boundary runs in the area of the Medford Tower. It's tough to tell. Does not the Pemberton Twp boundary line run south to NJ 72 whereas the New Lisbon tower is north of the road?

I am downloading the county engineering maps to take a closer look... appreciate your feedback.

You do have the towers properly placed on the Maps you just have them in the wrong municipality. Other wise they look good.

The tower you have listed as Medford Lakes is actually in Medford
The tower you had listed in Pemberton is actually in Woodland
The tower you had listed in Woodland is actually In Batsto Atlantic County

You are correct my apologies. It's funny how when you look it up in some places online they have it listed as Atlantic County. I should have know better since I did a control burn there earlier this year and I knew who's section we were in and it wasn't C division.

By golly, I think I've got it. I don't know what "it" is but I hope it isn't catching. Thanks firefighter1286 and Mike. The major error was a senior moment putting Batsto fire tower in Woodland rather than Washington twp.

Part of the problem with entering coordinates into Google Maps is that Google doesn't always come up with the proper city/township name for the marker.

If something still needs tweaking, please let me know. I didn't, for example, include the Batsto Mansion as a fire tower. I've been in that house and in the peak overlooking the fire sprinkler tank that Wharton built into the house. The state lists it on its web page but I think that's now more for historical purposes.

HTH.

Prowling around western Burlington county midday today, I had the PRO-106 running across some Burlington county IG and PW frequencies that I found listed in the FCC database. Some squelch modes and codes were found, and some unknowns. No doubt some are out of the county. Perhaps you can help.

151.7150 - Three heard. (1) Harriet's Oil Service (KFK223) in Medford has a DCS 216. (2) Traffic with a DCS 464 with mentions of Camden addys has to be Camden County College. (3) But the mystery was a CTCSS 203.5 transmission, no clue who?

152.9075 - CTCSS 131.8 - Lots of maintenance chatter at a school that most likely is Moorestown Friends School (WQNA822).

152.9450 - DCS 026 - Judging by the instructions to get mulch for a customer, this most likely is Leonburg Nursery and Landscape (KNEJ421) in Moorestown.

154.5150 - No squelch info displayed - A doctor's office page saying a patient was ready for transport, heard several times. I've heard this several times at home within the Pine Barrens; probably in the central part of the county.

154.9950 - CTCSS 131.8 - Driving in Lumberton, this signal almost overloaded the scanner. Probably Lumberton Public Works, but there is speech inversion.

155.1750 - Two heard. (1) A strong signal with CTCSS 151.4 and conversation most likely is Burlington County Special Services School District in Mount Holly. (2) A significantly weaker signal -- in Mt Laurel -- clearly decoded to CTCSS 118.5 but I couldn't figure out what was being talked about, who or where?

155.2800 - Three heard. (1) What appeared to be a Rutgers University police officer was discussing turning over a vehicle break-in to Camden police as the owner was not a Rutgers student. The CTCSS 110.9 squelch is the same squelch setting as Rutgers University Newark Police uses. No listing found? (2) An unidentifiable signal with CTCSS 203.5 waa heard. (3) School transportation info was heard with a CTCSS 85.4, most likely Upper Darby School District (KDN568) in Delaware County.

153.8350 - CTCSS 123.0 - Conversation appeared to be about student transportation, but no idea who or where?

HTH.
