Any of you Daviess county guys interested in starting a scanning club?
I have
P25 signals are data signals.
This last statement is the smoking gun. I probably mis-diagnosed the situation by assuming an internal scanner bug. Electro Magnetic Interference (from other scanners, wifi, computers, passing vehicles, florescent lights, you name it) is a more than likely culprit.
This seems unnecessary for KSP communications purposes. Scanners might be employed for other reasons, or they may be seen as a distraction to the critical mission of the KSP. For officer safety I assume that direct two way communication is preferred.
But, I have been wrong a couple of times before before.![]()
We both could be wrong or right. It's just how I hear it. When we listen to a simplex frequency on our radio system from a Pro-197 you don't hear that slight tone at the end, but when we listen to the repeater frequency, you'll hear it for about a second at the end. I dunno, I may be confused as to what I'm saying. I'm in Ohio for school right now, but I'm going back to Boyd this weekend, so I'll leave a recorder on my headphone output & record what I'm talking about & see if it's the same thing as he's hearing on KSP...
@ sound_efex, in reference to your PM, I know.It's cool. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong.
Anyone Using HP-1, PSR800, or BC396XT to monitor the P25 Conventional Talkgroups On KSP's system?
Also, same question KEMA and Kentucky Utilities.
PM me - I'd like to compare notes...
Notes from a trip to the Owensboro area this AM:
For KSP Post 2, monitored several transmissions off the Sacramento tower.
For KSP Post 16, monitored several transmissions off Reed, Cloverport, Whitesville, & Henderson towers.
It appears talkgroup ID (TGID) = 1 is the P25 conventional talkgroup for dispatch for both KSP Post 2 & 16.
Radio ID's for the dispatch consoles:
200001 Console 1 for Post 2
200002 Console 2 for Post 2
200003 Console 3 for Post 2
likewise,
1600001 Console 1 for Post 16
1600002 Console 2 for Post 16
1600003 Console 3 for Post 16
Individual trooper radio ID's are random in nature and have no observable correlation to unit numbers.

Let me clarify the statement...
the individual trooper RID's show no discernible pattern in relationship to unit numbers/badge numbers...

You are correct.
Same for 4,7,11,12, and 15
When programmed correctly. The radio will show a unit # instead of the "random radio I'd"
I have heard that DSD will also show conventional TG's
How are you programming post 4? I just added the frequencies p25 and they work.... how are you making them into a talk group. What would i enter? Thanks
Yes I'm using DSD on my 15X, and it is showing the Console ID's as:
800001 Post 8
800002 Post 8
800003 Post 8
1400001 Post 14
1400002 Post 14
Have not seen a 3rd one yet.
None of the Trooper are matching what is show as the ID in DSD, just the Console ID's.
