Galesburg PD

[baker954]

Does anyone know for sure of Galesburg PD went to the DPL?

I was at the station the other day talking to the on-duty Sgt. and a couple of officers I know (I used to be an explorer there back in the day) and they switched from HT1000 to HT1250, and I'm not sure if I saw a LS or LS+ after the HT1250.... so I am not sure if they went to trunking. I forgot to bring my scanner when I was there too....

Just something that I want to know so I know next time I go there so I can listen.

As of about a month ago when I passed through Galesburg, their PD was still using 460.100 (156.7). Fire was using a repeater on 151.295 (156.7), but I don't know what the repeater input is. I've never heard anything on 460.450 to verify the PL tone. I've seen 460.100 DPL 261 posted different places but I don't know if that is an old PL tone or what. FYI, 460.450 DPL 261 used to be Bettendorf, IA police dispatch.

460.450 is GPD ch 2. When I was an explorer we used that a lot. The PL is the same.

I wonder if the 151.295 fire repeater input should be 159.390, not 153.390. Galesburg holds a license for 159.390. Might 153.390 listed on the RadioReference.com Knox County page be a typo, or is it confirmed?
