Good information, and makes sense. Does your "source" know if District-Chicago's current Car-2-car channel will be the primary Troop 3 car-2-car, or will they repurpose District 2 & 5's car-to car?
Another question on Troop 3..which expressways will be on the new channels? Are they named Troop 3-North or 3-North, or 3-N for example?
So, like now, District 11 dispatches D18 on the D18 talkgroup. District 11 has 3 dispatch talkgroups that they use regularly, along with the Detail talkgroups. Will ALL areas of Troop be on the Primary talkgroup?
None of the information that was sent to me mentioned the C2C stuff at all, my guess is because Troop 3 is being divided even further, they won't have a need for them.
The info didn't include the exact TG names, only the general information of the new areas. Each Troop 3 group has a color association as well, North (Yellow), Middle (Blue), South (Red), and Southwest (Green). There is a bit of info on what colors cover what areas, but it's too much to fit into this post, I'm a few hours southwest of Chicago, and I don't know enough about the Chicago area to decipher it
Each subzone (North, Middle, etc) will be on their own Primary TG. Those are listed in my initial post.
Well I'm in the city, so feel free to post it here, or send me a private message, I'm interested.
I'll shoot you a PM when I return home.
I've been busy:
| Troop 3-North | - | 9002 |
| Troop 3-Middle | - | 9007 |
| Troop 3-South | - | 9008 |
| Troop 3-Southwest | - | 9013 |
| Troop 3-Admin | - | 9005 |
| Troop 1-Primary | - | 9000 |
| Troop 1-Secondary | - | 9017 |
| Troop 2-Primary | - | 9015 |
| Troop 2-Secondary | - | 9019 |
| Troop 7-Primary | - | 13007 |
Illinois State Police Welcomes New Troopers With Cadet Class 138 Graduation
ISP Rebuilds with 368 New Troopers Added Since 2019 SPRINGFIELD, IL-(Effingham Radio)- The Illinois State Poli...www.effinghamradio.com
32 to District-Chicago (Troop 3)
10 to Collinsville (Troop 8)
It'll be interesting to hear what radio signatures they'll be given. They're reporting to their Districts (Posts) tomorrow, and the restructuring is scheduled for Jan.1st.
I wonder if they'll continue with the first number representing the troop #, and the last few as the unit ID. This system could still work, but each troop would have quite a few numbers attached.
3-501/8-501 ?
Yeah, I'm not sure what they'll end up doing, but they may not change anything at all. Guess we'll find out.
Update on Troop 3's patrol/channel assignments (Thanks to RTMed519):
North (Current D2-A talkgroup) will be the the Kennedy and Edens Expressways, Interstate 290 north of St. Charles Road, Interstate 355 north of Army Trail Road.
Middle (Current DC-C Middle talkgroup) will be Interstate 290 south of St. Charles Road, the entire Interstate 290 into the city, Interstate 55 to Interstate 355.
South (Current DC-D South talkgroup) will be the Dan Ryan and the entire Interstate 94 south of the Steel Bridge, Interstate 57 to Steger Road, Interstate 394 south of Interstate 80/294 interchange, Interstate 80 east to State Line from Interstate 80/294 interchange, Interstate 80 east of Harlem Ave.
Southwest (Current D5-A talkgroup) will be Interstate 80 west of Interstate 55 to County Line…Interstate 55 south of Interstate 80 to County Line, Interstate 55 north of Interstate 80 to Interstate 355, Interstate 80 east of Interstate 55 to Harlem.

Appreciate the info on the talkgroup usage. So am I correct in assuming that the North talkgroup will be used for the rural areas of District 2 as well (Boone, Mc Henry, Kane, etc counties)?
From the map, that would be Troop 3 so it would be a good guess.

So whats gonna be used for non-highways, such as Boone, DeKalb, Kane, Kendall, Grundy? Or is ISP still not gonna patrol them?
The patrol assignments that I read didn't mention any non-highway patrols, I'd guess whatever is the procedure now would stay in place.
That's true, much focus has been on the interstates in and around the Chicago Metro area for quite some time now. With the new Troops (Troop 3), the personnel can be easily shifted around based on different enforcement tactics instead of requesting support from outside Troops. 32 probationary troopers were just added, around March, they'll be on solo patrol.
