The downtown sites which I tend to monitor most often have plenty of Phase-2 traffic. Looking at the activity log, the majority is P2.

What frequency are you using. To monitor the trunking.

Sounds like abd and sud analog is patched to larics talkgroups. Wonder if they are getting ready to switch those people also and if it will be clear or encrypted.

Based on what I have seen so far on ABD, the helos and 950 David are using the trunked radio system with trunked ID's showing up. Dispatch is still patched to the channel on the conventional side. Time will tell on the final results. Sounds like Dispatch has not fully cut over to using the trunked talkgroups yet on their consoles.

FYI, not hearing traffic on ABD analog but seeing lots of traffic on the LA-RICS ABD TG which is encrypted.

ABD is not encrypted AERO switched over a week ago I monitor that on LA-RICS

 

[brian808]

The TG (318) you are listening to is indeed in the clear, but is patched to a new encrypted TG which is what they will be using from what I heard. Possibility all patches will be dropped today or tomorrow.

 

[patin]

SUD ,,, is now active LA-RICS CLEAR

 

[LAflyer]

From what I gather, 318 and 319 will be depreciated with 2055 becoming SUD and 2068 ABD Dispatch, both ENC.

You are correct from info I have heard. Enjoy the two for next day maybe two then all we get is dispatch analog. Eventually those are going away also I understand, but down the road

You need PHASE 2 TRUNKING

 

[tsalmrsystemtech]

You only need a phase II radio if they are transmitting in TDMA. The back end of the system might be PHASE II but still transmitting in FDMA

All the 700 stuff in strapped phase 2 only. Only the uhf side is dual phase

Great. Thanks for the update. So like the last person said be safe and get a Phase II TDMA radio moving forward.

LACoFD, I have started listening to just the dispatch, last week East dispatch was a mans voice, West dispatch was a lady.
In the analog system this was not unusual. So my question is this, are all dispatched freq's, using the same info, meaning all of them dispatch at the same time with the same info? Or is each area dispatch using a different voice and or just the local area info?

What Dispatch channels are you referring to? There are many.

The county wide dispatch, Blue 8 is what is being rebroadcast on the LARICS.
