Hey all,
Figured I'd post something here before going to the Unitrunker group.
Trying to monitor Halton Region with Unitrunker 2. It seems to be going ok, but I haven't heard any audio.
Obviously HRPS is encrypted, so no surprise there. But, I've seen some traffic over Burlington & Milton/Halton Hills Fire and haven't heard any audio at all despite having seemingly pretty good reception.
IIRC: Unitrunker v2 cant decode P25 P2 audio however RR lists it as a P25 P1 system.
I do see a couple mentions to P25 radio upgrades in HRPS PR material over the years but nothing decisive. Additionally, if I'm not mistaken I seem to be getting conflicting information on this point in Unitrunker itself.
When I look under system groups it doesn't show any TDMA groups but does indicate FDMA (If I'm not mistaken: would indicate P25 P1)
However the bandplan is as follows: (which ... If I'm not mistaken: would indicate P25 P2)
Regarding channels, it seems that voice channels show up as secure. If there is any encrypted traffic over them (when viewed individually filtering out HRPS calls, there are no secure calls shown in history) would it be foolish to assume that unencrypted traffic sharing the voice channels would come through fine despite this?
Am I missing something?
Is this something like whats discussed here?(I've been around a good number of HRPS, Burl/Milt/Oak Fire and never seen them with anything other then APX)
Then again, Its the middle of the night and I may very well hear something during the more active morning hours(I've never been out in my truck early enough to hear the morning Fire test broadcasts, maybe this will be the day)
