BCT15X: Milan Illinois EDACS issues...

[dh684b]

I'm new here, so please feel free to delete this post if its breaking some sort of rule I'm unaware of.
I'm using an old Uniden BCT15X & i'm attempting to scan the Milan PD in Rock Island County. I have no problems setting up EDACS for some of the surrounding areas, such as Davenport IA, or Moline IL, which is on the same RACOM EDACS system. Milan, on the other hand, I've had no luck. I setup the system just as I do for the other areas and I get absolutely nothing on the scanner.

5111 (13F7) Milan, IL Rock Island, IL , 09 856.5125c, 10 857.5125, 11 858.5125c, 12 859.5125, 15 854.5125c, 22 857.7125 , 23 858.7125

The above is the information I'm using from RadioReference for my frequencies.

1681 13-021A, Milan Police 1 Milan Police 1 (linked to 154.815) (on TG560 after midnight) Law Dispatch
1682 13-022A, Milan Police c2cMilan Police: Car-to-Car Law Tac

I'm using the talk group "1681 13-021A" (This is also from RadioReference.

Am I I'm I missing something here? Has there been a change to their frequencies, or their control channel/channels? Man I'm about to go bald trying to figure this out.

I'm sure I've missed something small and I'm gonna kick myself, but please someone help here

Thanks in advance for any help!

If you are looking for Milan PD they are dispatched by QCOMM on Dispatch 1 (TG:1409) they are the 4xx units.

Thank you mws72! That TG did it! It seems the TG is wrong that's listed in RadioReference, is this something we can report for an update? I see you're in the Quad Cities, good to see another QC person around here. Thank you for your service man! Hope you're well.

I thought I had sent in the change but since I have been busy with moving. I must of not carry it out. That one listed was the old dispatch. But since QCOMM took over and moved to Milan's City Hall. They and Silvis moved. Silvis went to Dispatch 2 (tg;1410) with East Moline & Hampton PD's.

Hey mws72, can I ask ya. Those frequencies above with their LCNs. Do those still look correct to you?

 

[mws72]

I don't hear Milan site very ggod from my new locations. Have to wait till Monday to check it out.

Ok, thanks in advance for the help.

Hey mws72, did you ever get a chance to look the above information over?

"If you are looking for Milan PD they are dispatched by QCOMM on Dispatch 1 (TG:1409) they are the 4xx units."

Ok so, I think I've finally figured out what's happening here. I'm hearing all the Moline dispatch also on 1409. Is there a way I can have the scanner only pick up "4xx units"?

 

[mws72]

Unless you lock out 1409 and enter only the radio IDs for Milan PD. Your scanner will do the rids (which I have 58 of them on record), that would be the only way to do it.
