If set up right that will be one Hell of a system for them. I wish Duke Energy would go back to there 800mhz repeaters. I liked to listen to them during outages.

Duke is working on it for Hamilton County

Build on going

However Issues for Duke and IPL from what I have heard they will be Digital and normal Scanners can not decode it.

 

[SCPD]

Here is a good one on the IPL Lic it shows 9th st as location but it should say 6801 E91st not 9th on the fist page. Since they are using some of MECA's tower sites and MECA is using some of theres

???? a "normal" scanner..... if you mean analog as being normal then no, it won't work for digital. If your meaning a digital scanner then it's a "maybe, maybe not", however I have heard this will be a Smartzone Motorola digital system, in which case it should be fine.

I thought Motorola was not selling Smartzone systems anymore. Am I mistaken? I was under the impression that all new Motorola systems were going to be pure P25 9600 baud systems.

You might wnat to check with who is in charge he can tell you in detail what they are doing he is a ham and it is MIKE SERCER to clear up your Confusion

 

[Viper43]

No confusion...... btw, you may want to look a little deeper into whats going on and the capabilities that the new system will have, there are more reasons these two are shareing some towers than meets the eye

I'm not sure, but I think theres bad news here. The license is for emission type 8K60D1W. CITE 47CFR2.201. "D=Emission in which the main carrier is amplitude and angle-mudulated either simultaneously or in a pre-established sequence". "1= A single channel containing quantized or digital information without the use of a mudulating sub-carrier". W=A combination of data types. I don't think my scanners are gonna work with that. df

 

[dfoutch]

I forgot to ask "or is D1W P25" because MECA is also licensed D1W.

 

[SCPD]

IPL 8K60D1W Safe T 20K0F3E MECA 20K0F3E 15K0F2D 10K0F1D, 8K60D1W
Ok I take that back on the new MECA Lic they have the same but that does not matter if they use it in another form or Encryption

The F3E and the D1W is the Digital part

 

[SCPD]

Sounds like IPL is working on there new Digital P25 system this morning 856.4125 has had P25 digital on it and a breif CC data

 

[SCPD]

IPL is rotating freqs testing P25 digital today

 

[W9NES]

If you have a P-25 scanner you will be able to hear it with no problem.

 

[SCPD]

855.4125 and 856.4125 now being used on P25 Conventional mostly meter readers

On a 996 program up a bank Conventional with these channles in a group but make sure on each freq set it for digital audio only

 

[SCPD]

856.2875 is now P25 active for IPL

 

[SCPD]

Ok 855.4125 856.2875 856.4125 is a part of a 9600 P25 system NOT Conventional How ever NO CC found with in the IPL freqs but the analog CC. Never the less these three from time to time show LNK and rotate voice traffic I have searched the 800 band and have NO CC in true P25 but MECA if any one has any info on this please post thanks

 

[SCPD]

Breaking news!!!! IPL is using meca sys 2 cc for there new IPL digital

TG
21012 meter services or service turn on
21014 Service Cut-off
21015 Meter turn On?


852.1125 CC
855.4125
856.2875
856.4125

IPL slowly cutting people over to Digital when more switch more of the IPL freqs will switch as well looks like MECA just added these freqs to the system and IPL solely on just the IPL freqs to weird
