One guy on the move all over the Hartford area as far South as Berlin, reporting every few minutes on signal strength and readability.

The Troop G control channel from the old system is still up and running. I believe that is going to be kept up and running so that Metro North can still have access to it.

Not to keep beating the dead horse, but that is yet another official document referring to the system as the CLMRN, and not CSERN. As has been discussed previously in this thread, and the general consensus agreed, there is no reason to continue referring to it by the wrong name, both in this thread and in the DB. Can we get an official statement from one of the admins why it has not been changed to the official name the state has given it?Just as an FYI, I figured I would post the council minutes that should the MOU (memorandum of understanding) between the city of Hartford and the state for HFD to use the system (pages 8 & 9) from September, 2018 in case anyone is interested in the legalese: http://www.hartford.gov/images/Town..._Common_Council_Meeting_September_24_2018.pdf
Has anyone actually submitted it?

I did, last night for the database and wiki references.
I wouldn't go renaming trunked system wiki articles willy nilly, as doing so can break the link from the database entry. Best to wait until the TRS is renamed in the RRDB, then rename the wiki article to match.Submissions do not impact the Wiki, only the RRDB
Wiki is editable by any/all - go forth and edit
1601 Was active the other day with Valley Shore putting out a Hospital diversion so maybe a patch to Med-Net?How about 5471 and 1601? That's all!
Who renamed it anyway, that is an odd name for a statewide radio system involving the state police.Not to keep beating the dead horse, but that is yet another official document referring to the system as the CLMRN, and not CSERN.

The system was never named CSERN, someone on this website made up that name. As far as the actual name Connecticut Land Mobile Radio Network is concerned you have to remember that this system is no longer just for the State Police but all state agencies and local agencies that want to use it.
Been using this... stellar receive on CSERN. Worth a look, it bends at a 90, but I put a dab of gorilla to lock in place.
Interesting! Where did you get it?
I use these for the new system. Directional Yagi pointed out the window, vertically polarized. It's a cell phone booster antenna, but because it's made for 700-900mhz, it's PERFECT for CLMRN because its 760mhz and 859mhz area.I found another thread from years ago here on RR, then googled the antenna, a Shure 774, found one on eBay for 10 or so dollars, like I said I glued mine in place, the hinge, not the antenna to the scanner, but so far its amazing. Going from a RH789 to this is a massive improvement, same for the rem sma for the sds100. Im parked on H Simulcast great reception.
Yes thats CSPERN (Not the RR CSERN made up name) Its not a trunking system, it is still around, Simulcast analog system for mutual aid that New Haven PD sits on their mics all the time onThere is a CS-PERN system, probably where the goof up was. All the information is here, printed in 2016 on the names of the systems: https://portal.ct.gov/-/media/DEMHS/_docs/DisDistresspdf/CTUpdatedSCIP1417finalversionpdf.pdf?la=en
