Incendies Vaudreuil-Soulanges Fire radio system

[plaws]

I see the freqs in the DB (correctly under Monteregie Region, MRC V-S). Found the closed thread, no help.

They all seem to be in the DB as DMR freqs, though no system details (shown as conventional, actually). Each freq has a different Color Code, which while odd, is probably "allowed".

Anyone have the scoop? As noted in the closed thread, Sentinel is of no use. I will cut/paste them into my fully-keyed BCD436HP as just regular channels (probably my BCD996P2 as well even though it is keyless) just to see what is there.

As I live across the linguistic curtain in Doug Ford's America, I note that I had to do "extra steps" to get UCPR's DMR system for their FD's to work so maybe something similar is needed?

Well, the CCs seem to check out - they do match the channel labels. There are talkgroups, too, and these seem to match with the channels (+100). The odd thing is ... I don't think this is trunked at all. Very weird. Sounds fine (as fine as digital can sound!) just ... no apparent trunking - "URG-14" is always on 410.8625 slot 2, CC 14, TGID 214 (yes, not 114 - maybe because it's "URG" and not "CENTR". Lest you think that's some sort of "just wait some more" issue, the counter for that record is closing in on 700 hits over 6 hours.

Les Cèdres seems to have had a fire this evening judging from the counters ProScan.

436 system is set to conventional with "all" for the audio type.

Several services have not opted for trunking due to high operating costs. DMR or NXDN, smaller municipalities have chosen these simple modes while in urban areas, trunking systems are more used.

Looks like if you put in 410.8625 as a digital channel in a radio that does DMR (or "all" as I have set my 436) you will hear most of the FD radio traffic. There is traffic on the other channels at least the DMR channels but URG-14 is most of it.

I've heard nothing on the channels marked as analog in the database (the ones with CTCSS tones listed)

Those analog channels are simplex on-scene channels, so except if you have a fire scene near you, you will likely never hear anything on them.
