Monitoring NJSP / Salem County, NJ Area

[wirelesscop]

In looking at the PRO96's "factory" NJSP file...I am a little confused at what ID's I would need to program in my scanner to listen to the NJSP in the Salem, NJ area. Their doesn't seem to be an ID listed as "DISPATCH" or the like. Can anyone please tell me what IDs they have in their scanner to be able to listen to NJSP in the South Jersey / Delaware area? Also, if anyone could share their WIN96 file that would be awesome!

Thanks in advance!

I'll have the files for you tomorow or Wednesday if you want to wait for them....I dont have the files on this computer.

Here you go - this 'NJ1' file of mine has all the 'juicy' stuff for all 3 of the troops. You can cut-and-paste into a new file, even, if you like...

Here's a PDF file that's also an excellent source of information. It's accurate and up to date. The author updates it whenever he gets any new or updated information. The cover page says it's for northern New Jersey, but it's actually for the entire state.

You will need Adobe reader in order to access it. If you don't have Adobe Reader or you're not aware of it, you can download it for free. Just Google Adobe reader.

The talk grouops that would be of interest to you in Salem County would be:
All of the TGs in the Troop A section
Garden State Parkway Bass River in the Troop E section
Turnpike Patrols Moorestown Station in the Troop D section
Any other TG with the letter A, or A,B,C and a number in the "Designator" column
Any TG with "South" at the end of the description
Any TG with no indication of A,B,C or North, South, or Central. Those TGs are common to all systems.

Hope this helps.

I have most - if not all - TGs plugged into my scanner for the NJSP system. Mind you, I entered them manually, so it took a while. You can check the database for specific TG ids:

http://www.radioreference.com/modules.php?name=TRSDB&sid=141

Dispatch is referred to as x-Comm, with "x" being a particular region.

A-2 (2-Comm) dispaches the Bridgeview station in Camden, which is the South Anti-Crime Partnership that supplements Camden City PD (they also have a digital TG on Camden City's EDACS 800 TRS; side note: most of the Camden EDACS system is analog, only a handful of police TGs - mainly investigative and surveillance TGs - are ProVoice digital)
A-3 (3-Comm) dispatches Troop A Eastern stations (Buena Vista, Atlantic County and Woodbine, Cape May Co) covering Atlantic and Cape May Counties
A-4 (4-Comm) dispatches Troop A Southern stations (Bridgeton and Port Norris, Cumberland County and Woodstown, Salem County)
A-5 (5-Comm) dispatches Troop A Western stations (Bellmawr, Camden County) - these are the expressway patrols covering NJ 42, NJ 55, 295, and 676 in Camden and Gloucester Counties
A-6 (6-Comm) is the NJSP Marine Patrol stations in South Jersey - Atlantic City and North Wildwood cover the shore region; Bivale covers Delaware Bay
A-7 and A-9 are Car-to-Car TGs.
A-8 is the Command Post.

All Troop A operations with the exception of the Marine Patrols (Hamilton, Mercer County) are dispatched out of the ODU South facility in Williamstown, Gloucester County.

NJSP Turnpike

I live in Camden Co next to the AC Expressway and about 8 miles from the NJ Turnpike and 30 miles from the Garden State Parkway. I can pick up NJSP Transmissions from all of South Jersey (A Troop) with the exception of the Turnpike ( Troop). All the databases I have seen only list Troops A, B, and C. Does D Troop transmit on their own frequency?

 

[DJ88]

Troops D (Turnpike) and E (Parkway) use either the A, B, or C system, depending on what area they cover. I think some use multiple systems because I monitor only the C (Central) System and I can monitor the Troop E Bass River Station talk group and they are actually on the Troop A (South) System, and Troop E Bloomfield Station TG, which is on the Troop B (North) System. Maybe someone with a little more knowlwdge about this can explain that further.

NJSP Turnpike

From where I live, I can pick up Bass River, Port Norris, Bridgeton, Bellmawr no problem. Port Norris is about 40 miles from my house and Bass River is about 50 miles. NJSP station in Morrestown (Turnpike South) is about 15 miles tops and I get nothing.

 

[Joseph11]

All of Burlington County is covered by Troop C. A lot of GSP talkgroups are simlucasted across all of the NJSP systems.

You should hear moorestown cars on ID: 26992 on either troop A or troop C system, its been simucast for some time now. I can hear them from all over the state in my car so reception shouldn't be your problem.

NJSP Turnpike

I can receive TG 26992, but I thought they were the State Police Detachment in Camden from the Bridgeton Barracks. The below is from the Radioreference database:

26992 697 A4-12 AQUAR New Jersey State Aquarium (Camden)

According to the NJSP Website, the Turnpike is dispatched by ODU Turnpike in Cranbury and the GSP is dispatched by ODU Parkway in Woodbridge.

 

[Skypilot007]

If you get the ID 26992 then you can hear the traffic on it. Its all the usual mayhem that happens on the turnpike. I hear operations center on there and Moorestown cars dispatch. It can be heard on the A or C troop systems. I've seen this ID on several web sites with reference to the Camden aquarium. I think it is incorrect information because I've never heard anything else on this ID other than troopers on the turnpike.

To NJBob, If you want the most accurate and up to date talk group info regarding the State Police or any other state agency, you should refer to the PDF File I provided the link for in my first post on this thread. Once I found it I've never used any other reference, and I don't even bother looking at the data base here. BTW, that PDF file lists 26992 as Troop D 2 Comm Patrols South (Moorestown Station).
