Oh, interesting. But that seems like an awful lotta money to spend on a whole separate site just for aircraft.
Hillsborough County (EDACS and P25 32D.1E306)
- Thread starter 6Paul21
- Start date
If it enables the aircraft to receive and transmit better, than it’s worth it. It also just looks like one tower with two repeaters. A drop in the hat compared to the remainder of the system.

That means SO can go to Tac 1 D and we cannot hear them. SO sounds real crappy on P25.

Tac channels are encrypted anyways, and have been since Chronister's been sheriff.
Been listening to all the public safety talkgroups on the Hillsborough's P25 system from Manatee county and they all sound crappy. I sure hope they get their act together before anyone goes live.

I’m not getting anything from HCSO on EDACS or P25…low and behold I just picked up D2 on EDACS. I get Fire on EDACS with no problem. Don’t tell me almost everything is going to be encrypted now?

I haven't seen any HCSO activity on P25 in my logs, but that doesn't mean anything
Check your equipment. Everything is still on EDACS and D1 thru D5 loud and clear in the past 5 minutes.

Maybe just a quiet night.
Polk County Uses a 700mhz P-25 System on 1 tower in Bartow ONLY for Aircraft the 800 MHz system uses about 10 different towers and the aircraft pings over several towers all at the same time confusing the system SO they created the 700 system so all aircraft would only use 1 tower

Yes, lots of P25 systems are using aircraft sites.
I was in Brandon this past Tuesday and could Bearly Receive the Eastside P-25 system but the West Side was weak & stronger than the Eastside

What scanner were you using?

That scanner is susceptible to simulcast distortion. You are going to need to either upgrade to the SDS100/SDS200, purchase a Unication G4/G5, or use SDR dongles and SDRTrunk in order to properly monitor the Hillsborough County P25 system.
I just Heard Polk Dispatch one of our Ambulances to a Traffic Accident on I-4 at Alexander st. they were told to select Hillsborough Tac 1
as far as I know, Polk EMS doesn't have an Edacs radio only a P-25 there system must be up and running today

Likely an ISSI/interop channel. Those exist on P25.
