From my recordings 7/19/22:

163.1000 NAC167 FBI CH D7; a/c surv on Lexus; no a/c id.
168.2250 NAC167 FBI CH G1/2; a/c "we have to shut it down & restart, so we'll be with you soon"; sounded like same a/c above.

G-01/G-02 are ID's for this channel from NYC are you listening from NYC or from home in PA
where, the Channels names are very likely VERY different.

Nope. Only you, listening and hearing them name the channel / Zone and/or Site name will
actually know/determine the location - and with many of the Zones being Wide Area
you may only be listening to One of 5+ sites and hear them say "Reading" but you are on the Pittsburgh freq as a hobbyist

Radio programming / templates for this agency are UNIQUE to each Field Office
and if an Agent from Maine needs to take his radio to Orlando the only common channels will/would be the D Zone
or borrow a radio from the local FO or RA

That said a typical FO channel is broken down to
A - Admin - usually in/around the Field Office City/Town
then B/C would be the RA's
D - Nationwide Common
E/F/G etc for each of the RA's of combination of RA's to cover the entire FO Region

Example - and by no means indicating this is how Boston is done

Boston Field Office, is comprise of RA's in
Lakeville MA
Lowell MA
Springfield MA
Worcester MA
Augusta ME
Bangor ME
Portland ME
Bedford NH
Hampton NH
Providence RI

Radio Zones
A - Admin - Metro Boston Area
B - Lowell RA / Worcester RA
C - Lakeville RA
D - Nationwide
E/F - Bedford RA / Hampton RA / Portland RA
G - Augusta RA / Bangor RA
H - Providence RA
I/J/K/L - etc created as needed and could be An Adj FO's channels for the neighboring states
