Ikea Grand Opening

[utlchris]

9800 E. IKEA Way Centennial, Arapahoe County
Coming up Wednesday July 27th at 09:00
Lone Tree and Douglas County SO will be using MAC 3 for coordination

 

[seberry]

It's interesting that Lone Tree and Douglas are in on this considering it's Arapahoe County... Any source for this? Should be some interesting listening regardless

 

[MikeyB]

They're going to route from C-470 off on Yosemite and From I-25 to County Line so they'll be going through Douglas County and Lone Tree too. Arapahoe County must be in on it too.

IKEA is just barely over the border from Douglas it makes sense for them to ask for help from DCSO and LTPD. It sounds like its going to be a zoo....people are already lining up to get in

Yep, I drive by there almost every day on the way to work... they now have light up signs down County Line and other nearby streets that say "IKEA TRAFFIC INFO TUNE TO 1630AM"

 

[jimmnn]

Said numerous folks are lined up 2 days in advance.

Get a life folks.

Only if Arapahoe County or Lone Tree gives that days tax moneys to DCSO for their time. If you are not smart enough to stay away from that area then you deserve to be stuck in traffic.

IKEA is not in Lone Tree so they're not making any tax money on IKEA (except spillover)

ACSO District 2 cars? The IKEA is located in District 3 so is District 2 helping out? Pretty quiet down here normally except for traffic stops.

Yep it was definitely a 1 baker 2x car. About 8:30pm if I remember right. I thought it was weird too considering that is definitely district 3. Maybe he just wanted to see the ridiculous line.

Not unusual at all - I hear them go around all the time. It can be painfully slow listening to them sometimes. - traffic stop after traffic stop. Also if it was 1B23 I that would have been a shared car between districts 2 & 3.

Looks like one repeater channel, and 5 simplex channels. Should be interesting if you're in the area.

Metcom appears to be using Ops 7 for the South Metro bike medic team operating on scene.

And MAC-3 is indeed in use for law enforcement / traffic coordination.

[seberry]

And ACSO is using ops 1. Also they have quite a few different companies running parking, security, etc. Lots of chatter on 408.5125 sounds like it's store ops but unknown.

Edit: I may have screwed up the freq. I wrote down 408.5125 but that doesn't seem right.

Licensed a few repeater pairs, but only using simplex?

700/800 and 450 are only licensed and coordinated in pairs.

As of when ??

There are plenty of simplex [450-512] licenses [even of recent FCC posting] on what could be Paired channels.

700/800 and 450 are only licensed and coordinated in pairs.
