I believe I have suffered a stroke or something. I thought, without a shadow of a doubt, that Woodway PD joined HOTRRS here in Waco, Texas. When I looked on the DB page for such, it was not present. I would appreciate feedback about this, not my MSE. LOL.

At present, I don't see where TG 203 & 204 are assigned to a different agency than Woodway. Here is a point of reference for this confusing migration. Someone sent me information regarding code plugs for Lorena & Hewitt, but not Woodway. I am returning back to Woodway's old system since I was the one who discovered it back in 2004 or so. They are still using the old system. When a reliable informant tells me about a new code plug, I will change it.

Woodway has not migrated over to the HOTRRS system. If you are referencing hearing Woodway on that system, after 5pm, Lorena's main channel is patched with Woodway's main channel (on the Woodway P25 system) due to Woodway dispatching for Lorena after 5pm (Lorena has their own dispatcher between 8am-5pm Mon-Fri). Lorena has migrated over to the system, Woodway is still using the Woodway P25 system. Talk groups 203 and 204 belong to Lorena and are used by them. I hope this provides a little bit of clarity to the situation.

Yes, there is a post suggesting the opposite; however, I am used to finding inaccurate information in forums. Thank you for clearing this up. I already have the Lorena talk groups programmed.

Well, I found my mistake. When I went in to remove Hewitt from one of my Favorites, I did not re-number them. So, Woodway is coming in very well. Woodway does not mess around. Those dark-colored patrol units are very difficult to see at night. They love to hide in the shadows along highway 84 in Waco. I have been "lit up" twice by them. Odd as it may sound, yes, I was actually pulled over two times. "Let' me put my keys on the dash" does not apply, LOL.
