Yeah they do have a long way lol. But Shelby county is on now. Still not using all talkgroups but they are getting there. Traffic on disp north on old EDACS system barely exists. So they are comming along.

The great state of Tennessee
Shelby County usage

I have confirmed from personnel within the sheriff's office that they have the new mobile radios in the cars. They have the edacs system patched over. The Talkgroup Id for 55376 is SO 1 and 55536 is Info.This is for the new radios. I heard one of the techs talking on saturday afternoon as he was adding the west and station B patches talking about making sure the patches are up by monday. I am guessing that the west pct. is about to come online this coming week.

I just saw 7 of the 8 channels occupied at once. Should not be long before they have to add channels.

Anyone good with the Pro96Com software? I'm having a few problems.

Everything is hooked up, scanner screen is showing "PC/IF Port In Use." Hit Data Read. It shows Receive Rate 0% (0 out of 35) and buffer available is showing 100%. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Matthew

It won't work with Memphis' new system. It doesn't have a 9600 baud CC. I was bummed when I figured it out.......

I hear things should start happening soon. The entire system will not be up before the new year but some of it should. Rumor is this weekend. There will be no patch so only a precinct and its respective talk around channel will start at at time. So there will only be the precincts that are on the system all others will work off of the existing system.

Wonder if it will be west precinct? Seems like we are hearing a lot of them lately.Definately the most active precinct in my opinion of scanning Memphis for years.

Last night I heard a female officer say that the new radios were awful. Hopefully she was just in a bad spot.

it will be the west from what I heard. I cannot say anything about the new radios as I have not seen one of them working. It has been a long time sence anyone was doing any scanning of Memphis, but the east is by far the busiest precinct in the city now. But they are supposed to split it in the next year or so.

Yeah I have heard west too from what I have had through different contacts.West is def busy,I figured more than east because the amount of peeps in the west, and business,projects,etc.....I used to listen from the time I was about 16 which was in 1983 until the astro dig system came along. It seems like there are a hella lotta shots fired in the west.Oh well,BE SAFE

West Precinct

It definitely sounds interesting out there. I'm hearing a lot more going on right now than I ever have in Bartlett or with the SCSD. They're looking for someone now and the Air Unit is involved using IR.

From what I've heard so far the county sounds a lot more clear than the city. Has anyone else noticed this?

The county has the new radio's in most of the cars. Dispatch is still simulcast but the cars are only simulcast on the EDACS system. MPD still doesn't have all the radio's in and dispatch for them is still simulcasting. That's why some cars are real clear and others aren't

Observations

MPD audio, West Precinct, West Precinct Car/Car and Station B (records) is terrible. SCSO is OK. Heard a new control channel in use this morning, 860.2375. It flopped back to 859.4625 and is there now.

Audio on Station B is extra bad. Car audio is so low you have to adjust the volumn to hear them or at least you did this weekend.

I hope this system eventually sounds like the MLGW system. That one is far from perfect but listenable without giving you a headache.

I have AGC issues on the MLGW system with the 396. Not sure if it is the system itself or my radio.
