I'm less confident that 12785 is Fort Wayne ESU. Fort Wayne ESU used that TG between Fort Wayne and Muncie when they followed and apprehended a guy several months ago. Since that time I've read of a few accounts where people are saying surveillance ops and 99 RIDs are being found on that TG.
I got quite a few of the 10120 tg’s not too long ago off the Delaware tower and I kept the individual calls in a separate folder
The main CC repeater could be down for maintenence. It'll likely go back to the normal CC within a couple days.
Thanks, has been down for 2 weeks now. Unusual for that long a duration. Suspect something is up.. the alternate control channel seems to be "on" but the scanner isn't decoding / passing any traffic.

you might just be hearing that Tower as well as Knights Ridge with the strong west winds... 9 times out of 10 if the ALT is being used and your not hearing traffic, its probably in site-trunking for now
Thought that too. But no … with directional antenna it’s right on Knights ridge. Can also hear with antenna attenuator so I know it’s the local tower that’s transmitting on that control channel .. interesting for sure.
Which scanner do you use? You're issue may be: foliage, and multi-path; making you think that because you're pointed at one site that it's not possible to receive the other. Which scanner do you use? I use an 800Mhz directional antenna as well, and I can receive multiple towers in all directions; but the directional antenna does allow me to receive further in the direct that it is pointed. Which scanner do you use? Yes, I asked that question 3 times because I want you to answer it.
pro668 and pro651 also run multiple rtlsdr dongles here. Gives good spectrum display and signal strength/graphics. Antenna uses 7/8 heliax to outdoor 18 element directional antenna for 800 mhz. i'm in a rural area in a holler. Another local scannerhead confirmed my findings today. He observed the same at his location vis a vis different c-channels being used. Anyway, it's resolved now and working with the revised c-channels although no telling if this is a permanent swap or temporary. Suspect the repeater or controller over at Knights ridge went bad and they hot swapped it with Solsbury gear to keep the site up. Strange for sure. I forgot to check if the VCs are Solsbury too, or if they are now using the VC's of Knights Ridge site. (voice channels) with the CC of Solsbury. I'll check that later but guessing that would maybe violate fcc coordination. wonder also if the fcc database has been updated.
It didn't transmit continuously; it transmitted consistently. It would drop and re-key every 10-15 seconds. It wouldn't transmit longer enough to hit the ToT.
Ive got most of the DNR alias's filled in with their unit number but the one that kept keying up today is one of the few I havent heard a Unit number for yet and according to my log, it keyed up 159 times...lol
I think that is the South IDOC Parole Disp TG. Look thru the previous replies to this thread, and see if that TG# was mentioned as that.
