Montgomery County and Dayton on MARCS

[Davey1]

I tried searching the Wiki for this information to no avail. On MARCS how do we know which departments, talk groups, etc. use the Montgomery County site and which use the Dayton site? This would be similar to the information provided concerning Columbus and Franklin County.

One would assume that Dayton PD and Dayton FD use the Dayton site, and possibly OSP and the state agencies use the Montgomery County site, but beyond that, or maybe including that, is just a guess. Does anybody know this information?

Thanks.

The Dayton site is on the west side. It's main coverage purpose is for the Dayton Correctional Institution. You will hear all the ODRC comms from that site.
How much City of Dayton agencies use it compared to Montgomery County sites I can't answer to. Montgomery County is a 14 site Simulcast system in itself.
It has a cluster of towers close to the downtown area. I don't know that Dayton units would restrict themselves to just the Dayton site. In all my monitoring
I've never seen any evidence to suggest they differentiate between the two.

Thank you very much.

I live in the Dayton area. I use the Montgomery County site for listening to everything except the prison. As far as I can tell the prison is the only department that uses the Dayton site. Dayton PD, FD, Regional Dispatch Center, OSP, etc. all use the Montgomery County site to the best of my knowledge and experience listening to those departments.
