All fire departments are now utilizing Fire Operations 1 TG on the Jackson TRS with communications still with Ocean County.
Jackson Township Fire

Communications have now switched back to OCPS 6.
Seems like FD has switched back to the township TRS,I'm currently hearing station 54 units on Fire Operations 1.

Anyone know what they're using for response/fireground now? All four companies were dispatched this morning for brush trucks mutual aid to Freehold for a structure fire and not a peep on OCPS6, the TRS, or either of their Tac channels.
I'm not sure if this has something to do with it:
ULS Application - Public Safety Pool, Trunked - 0006292502 - JACKSON, TOWNSHIP OF
Edit:I'm currently hearing 5621 and 5610 communicating on Fire Operations 1.

Jackson Ops
Any update on this?
I'm still trying to figure out what system Jackson is operating on.
I have the Jackson trunk system as well as the Ocean County system programmed (hopefully correctly) but I am not hearing any apparatus after dispatch.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Erik

They operate on the Jackson Township trunked system and are digital,if I remember correctly didn't you message me on Facebook about this? You gave me the scanner model you're using as BC 780xlt which doesn't do digital so that's why you're not picking up fire operations after dispatch.

I'm hearing Ocean County on 508.1875 which is in the RR Database as OC Fire/EMS Dispatch, but I hear nothing on the Trunk system for Jackson.
I have it programmed as a P25 Standard (Digital XT) Site Type, I have the 6 Trunk Frequencies in, I have all of the Fire Ops TGIDs programmed and I'm using Free Scan to program it.
I can pick up the Ocean County Trunk system, the Joint Base system, the new Mercer Trunk system, NJSP no problem, just no Jackson.

Try setting it up as a Mot Type II/P25 and use the band plan that is in the database.

I have no data in the APCO Band Plan table, is this correct? Or is this what you are suggesting I enter? Just trying to be clear.
The software will not let me enter APCO Band Plan Data if I set it to Mot TypeII/P25

Mine is set up as a Mot Type II/ P25 system and use the band plan that is listed in the database and it works.

What software are you using?

FreeScan, here is a copy of my file. You'll have to unzip it to get the .996 file.

Unzip the example file into your freescan directory, open it with freescan and you'll be able to check it out. Hope it helps, let me know.

I haven't used my 996 for a long time, it might not work, I just looked at that file and it looks like I have the audio set to analog and it should be digital, let me fool with it and see if I can hear Jackson today.
Sorry, I should have checked out that file first. I use my GRE600 most of the time.

Strange, I can't get Jackson now either, I'll have to fool with it.

Well it looks like I have it working now. Your System Band Plan had 507.000 as the second Lower Freq number, it should have been 507.400.
