I use Sentinel. I tried to compare with broadcastify (with desktop computer).

Looks like the broadcastify feed combines both dispatch 1&2, I had to lock SDS200 on dispatch 1 and SDS100 on dispatch 2,

Indeed there have been cases where broadcastify picks up communications neither of my scanners ever had. Other times, the communication are the same though the 2-3 minutes long broadcastify delay makes comparison really harder (to my fish memory).
I appreciate you pulling out the sds100. I think you're onto something, there's definitely more traffic on Broadcastify for Sheriff's Dispatch 1 than what I was hearing on the sds100. I wish whoever is supplying the feed to Broacdastify could clear this up. Icanhearitmaybe

This is rather confusing.

Alameda County Sheriff
Alameda County Dispatch 1 - Covering the Castro Valley and unincorporated areas of San Leandro, San Lorenzo and Hayward. Alameda County Dispatch 2 - Covering Dublin and unincorporated areas of Pleasanton, Livermore and Oakland, also including officers

Alameda County Sheriff, Alameda County Fire Dispatch 2, and Dublin Police
ALCO Fire Dispatch 2 (Dispatch for Livermore-Pleasanton Fire, also dispatches other Alameda County fire agencies) - LP Fire units: Companies 90-99; Bat 9; Chief 90 & 91. ASCO - Dublin PD Disp. Pleasanton PD and Livermore PD have gone encrypted and ar

Thanks again Icanhearit

Did you hear a lot of traffic?

Yes, there was regular traffic on both talkgroups. My scanner had no issue stopping on each one in scan mode.

Since you are a premium subscriber, you should have access to the Broadcastify Calls platform. This will allow you to monitor each talkgroup individually and may help you confirm traffic/troubleshoot:

ACSO Dispatch 1

ACSO Dispatch 2

When I listen to the advance player ACSO Dispatch one, it actual shows which agencies are transmitting. I saw San Leandro PD, Hayward PD, ACSO Dispatch 2 & Dispatch 1. So if I'm not horribly mistaken that's why I am hearing more traffic on Broadcastify ACSO Dispatch 1 than I'm hearing on the SDS100 scanner EBRCS Alameda County Sheriff, Dispatch 1.
