Anyone know the new control channels for Consumers for the Grand Rapids are? the EDAC channels went quiet about 2 weeks ago.
I did stumble on to 853.9375 control channel for the Cedar Springs tower. it only seems to have Consumers traffic regarding the northern end of Kent county but nothing else.
running a BCD 996 XT here. could that be my limitation?

Cheers,

Heard on Muskegon County Simulcast

TG 11358 - Consumers - RID 3003177 seems to be a dispatcher, referred crews to a Casnovia address.

TG 11370 - Consumers - RID 3003180 seems to be a dispatcher. Referred crews to Rogue River Substation North of Grand Rapids.

Storms came through, widespread power losses. Had mine on ID Search for the EDACS system for which the towers are still active around here, nothing has been heard on that for a good week now. ID Search on MPSCS, nothing consumers related heard.
Even did a search in the 850-858 area for maybe another tower, nothing new has shown.
Data terminals used?

So im at a loss what is being used in mid-mi !

Ron, here are some talkgroups previously mentioned by @KD8FSJ:

11368-Midland
11374-Saginaw
11406-A mention of State St. in Bay City
11418-Midland
11421-Saginaw
What channels they are on apparently is a mystery.

Some of the Saginaw area ones I've heard. Not sure on the actual usage. We'll probably be playing the guessing game on these for awhile. Unless some nice listener who works at Consumers would like to help out.

During after hours, the on call crews or large power outages. when I heard em on EDACS, say for an outage in bay county, its whoever is on call gets the job. So those times not unusual then they were using the other county talkgroup.
Can explain how one talkgroup is going to a county, then at times being sent to another county.

Correction on TG 11362-It should be Hamilton, not Hastings.
I just heard a call in Middleville, which would be covered by Hastings, on TG 11363.
