East Haven PD / Guilford PD / Madison PD

[PD47JD]

1) East Haven PD is listed at 453.200 - Digital. Is this making reference to encryption or some type of digital format? If so what may that format be?

2) My wife had an appt at a YNNH facility in Guilford. So I waited in the car (2+ hours) ...with radios. Nary a peep from Guilford or Madison. Have they gone on the statewide system.....or just a remarkably quiet two+ hours with no traffic?

If you look at the Mode Column, it will show you. (If you hover over the column headings, there are explanations). In this case, it's Digital - P25, no encryption.

I understood that, but I found it noteworthy that the person updating the file made it a point of entering "Digital", which can mean a multitude of transmission modes. Nevertheless, EHPD has been silent on my equipment.

What is the make and model radio you are using? Is it P25 capable?
East Haven is L&C right now. They do go to encryption when they feel the need to. But 95% in the clear

 

[900mhz]

Guilford PD is 453.700 MHz PL 110.9
Madison PD is 460.2875 MHz NAC 110
East Haven PD is 453.200 MHz NAC 441.

Madison and East Haven are in the clear.

I monitor all three of these and show traffic on all three. Of the three, East Haven PD is by far busier.

It's doesn't "mean a multitude of things" when the column to the right of the name, tells you what modulation/type it's using

Yes,P25 and P25/2 . Well, thank you for your input. I'm aware that EHPD is a busy department, so I will try to receive them from my home location. (Woodbridge)..

Hence, the use of "digital" was superfluous.
Thank you.

Thank you.

The RR DB is also used by other applications, and devices.
Without it showing that it's "Digital", one wouldn't know.

It clearly says NAC and that shows its P25 (Phase 1 as Phase 2 is only trunking) if it said RAN that would be NXDN and if it said CC it would be DMR.

Thank you to all! As a long, long time scanner devotee (yes, I still have my Bearcat, Regency, Radio Shack scanners (20 at last count) and single channel Plectron/ Motorola/Sonar (multi-channel, manually switched) Monitors. I'm coming up to speed with technological advances and in particular use of RR data info. and the multitude of transmission/emission modes presently in use. So, thanks again for your thoughtful assistance.

Sometimes people who make submissions have inside info that results in the actual channel name within an agency being submitted. So if they run both an analog and digital channel using the same frequency, they may simply add the word digital to the channel name for the second channel.
Someone would certainly comment on two channels being named exactly the same when they either don't look or don't understand the Mode or Tone columns.

I will add the phrase "digital" to the description if I know that the system is mixed-mode, OR no confirmation the analog side has been fully removed.

East Haven is exclusively all digital, both the PD and FD. I haven't taken an analog hit since the migration to P25.

Yes 100% P25 for both, but you might want to add a small e after the PD P25. They do switch on occasion for temporary privacy.

I really appreciate your input, but (there's always a "but"), are the EHPD Com systems P25 or P25 2? It would appear (at least to me), if you have a P25 only scanner, you're out of luck monitoring a p25 2 comm system.

An aside..does anyone remember CRB research from Commack LI?

Phase II does not apply to P25 conventional, only trunked.
Yes I remember CRB. Bought a lot of books from them.
