Dayton Power & Light -- P25 Buildout

[dwelty]

Back when they were on low band (48.18, 48.08, etc.), there was a Dayton 8 (maybe a dispatcher?)

 

[n8yid]

Yes, Dayton 8 appears to still be a Dispatcher position....

Matter of fact, it looks like there are three (3) consoles for the Dayton 8 position... along with what looks like three (3) consoles for the Dayton 1 position... There is another RID that has came up (via DSD+), but, I have not heard any radio-related traffic with that RID...

Need to find if others are hearing any different "Dayton" positions on other sites (ie Xenia, Wilmington, etc)....

Dayton 1, Dayton 8, etc are definitely dispatchers; those are the same call signs they were using back in the EDACS days. Back then I had a pretty complete listing of who/what/where, but after they ditched EDACS and went to a Harmony system I filed it away somewhere, and now I can’t find it.

 

[wa8pyr]

All,

I’m making this thread a sticky for now. It’s a big enough system and enough thread activity to warrant it.

Thanks, Tom!

TG;s
Dayton 1 transmission & Substaion
Dayton 8 night service all divisions
Dayton 13 collections all divisions
North Division (sidney, Bellefontaine, Marysville, Urbana, Troy)
Central Division (Dayton, Fairborn)
South Division (Wilmington, Xenia, Washington CH)

3 daytime TG.s per division: Service, Construction, Line

DSP is Moraine service center

 

[n8yid]

Should your DSP, be DSB instead...?
Just asking; because, there is a Dayton Service Building location (Dryden), mentioned in the FCC license information... seems that would make more sense; unless there is a special acronym the have for it....

All should be hearing references to MP Lobby / MP Gate .... MP is reference to MacGregor Park facility (Fairborn area)...
Also, all should hear DSB Lobby/DSB Gate references.... should be Dayton Service Building location...

What is your reference to the "Collections" for Dayton 13...?

Thanks for the good info...

Correct on DSB, the info is from during EDACS era before switching to Open sky and things might have changed with all these new talkgroups. Dayton 13 was collections in the past under DP&L. Years ago Dayton 6 was Gas transmission under DP&L.

FYI service Garage locations: Moraine DSB, Bellefontaine, Coldwater, Eaton, Greenville, Sidney, Xenia, Wilimngton, Washington CH, Kettering, North Dayton. I cannot recieve Xenia of Fairborn here in Springfield as these digital systems are lower power output compared to the EDACS systems.

 

[n8yid]

There was a submission to the AES System over the weekend.....

they have "Xenia Service Area" alpha tagged as "Dayton 8".... Dayton 8 is a "dispatcher" position - they answer to calls on other TGs as welll .... shouldn't that be marked as "Xenia Line" for the alpha tag...?

....and....

TG 30106 - I'm not sure this is the correct title for this... it is marked as Dayton Service Building Security; but, they also have MP units (MacGregor Park - Fairborn units) on this TG as well... I was thinking this would've been more like "Central Division - Service buildings"....

Anyone?

Any clues...?

[n8wel]

Getting Dayton 8 night/weekend/holiday dispatch on 30012 for xenia and 30010 is Xenia service weekdays as in the past.

 

[n8wel]

There was a submission to the AES System over the weekend.....

they have "Xenia Service Area" alpha tagged as "Dayton 8".... Dayton 8 is a "dispatcher" position - they answer to calls on other TGs as welll .... shouldn't that be marked as "Xenia Line" for the alpha tag...?

....and....

TG 30106 - I'm not sure this is the correct title for this... it is marked as Dayton Service Building Security; but, they also have MP units (MacGregor Park - Fairborn units) on this TG as well... I was thinking this would've been more like "Central Division - Service buildings"....

Anyone?

Correct, tempting to secure wire theft on aluminum cable at Moraine yard and secure admin office at Moraine with issues on customer billing. irate customers on billing.

 

[n8wel]

Still question on Dayton 13 Collections on what TG.

 

[n8wel]

Reason Monitoring Xenia handles South Charleston in Clark County and does Fairborn handle Park Layne/ New Carlise to Monitor Fairborn??

 

[n8wel]

Ok, so far, with a little bit of monitoring off of the Benner site.... and, just taking consideration for the acronyms/names....

I'm hearing the following:

"Rover" - this unit travels around to areas with trouble and assesses the issue and what will be needed to mitigate the problem
"DSB or DSP Lobby" - I want to say that the "DSB" is Dayton Service Building; but, I am stumped on the "Lobby" portion
"MP Lobby" - not sure on "MP" or the "Lobby" part
"MP Gate" - I believe this would be the entry for a depot somewhere..
"South Gate" - I believe this would be the entry for a depot somewhere..

I am hearing calls to "Dayton 1" and "Dayton 8" - these are answered by a dispatcher, or console (per the alias I'm getting from DSD+)

...anyone else hearing anything more; ESPECIALLY from any of the other sites....??

Benner sub. site has a 800 antenna, and perhaps a 1 or 2 ghz antenna for data and a 10 ghz MW dish and yes this site maybe out of date on google map.

 

[n8wel]

This system needless to say is still in the works for sites being online as well TG.s

 

[n8wel]

One more thing hearing suposed Moraine security 301016 wondering on Xenia site as it find strange wondering if checking on critical substation security as most have CCTV cameras now.

 

[n8yid]

TalkGroup 30111 sounds to be DSB -Yard...

Hear a lot of comms regarding staging transformers for pickup, loading items on pallets for pickup, etc...
