Anyone have an update on the radio id logic on the MPSCS?

Michigan's Public Safety Communications System (MPSCS) Radio ID Structure - The RadioReference Wiki (Last major update 2020/2016)
Michigan's Public Safety Communications System (MPSCS) Zone Number - The RadioReference Wiki (Last updated 2022)

Seems somethings have changed, for example Detroit fire. 7042596 is Engine 35 portable
but according to that detroit section 704 should be a CID radio, yet iv got a good 100 or so 704 radios on the detroit fire dispatch channel and 705 radios



701 seems to be mostly EMS
but see a bunch of 701 on the transit ops too aswell as detroit fire dispatch

702/703 seem to be police

704/705 lower numbers are mainly fire but am seeing some police, ems and transit talkgroups there too and the higher end is mostly police. So figure perhaps someone has an updated scheme for not just detroit but the entire state

Ah... not very much as to the break down into the ID's like in my 1st 2 links


Specifically this section

All radios of the MPSCS possess a 7 or 8 digit radio ID number following a standard format as shown below. XYYZZZZ for 7 digits or 1XYYZZZZ for 8 digits.

X is the Zone Number

YY is the County Number. Dispatch consoles will be displayed with '00' in this place.

ZZZZ is the individual radio ID. Odd numbers are mobile radios. Even numbers are portable radios.
This section can also be broken down even further.

0001-2999 - State agencies
3000-8999 - County and local agencies (County Sheriff Departments, Fire Departments, Local Police Departments, EMS, Public Works, etc)
9000-9699 - Federal agencies
9700-9999 - base stations

Some Examples

2001051
is a dispatch console
2630080 is a portable radio used by a state agency in Oakland County
2473151 is a mobile radio used by a county or local agency in Livingston County
1359989 is a base station used by an agency in Iosco County

City of Detroit Radio ID Numbers​

The IDs of the radios used by the city of Detroit follow a slightly different format.

7YYZZZZ

YY
This can be broken down as follows.
00 - Dispatch Consoles
01 - Detroit Fire Department and other city departments (DPW, Water and Sewer, Transportation etc.)
02 - Detroit Police Department
04 - DPD CID units

ZZZZ Once again odd numbers are mobile radios and even numbers are portable radios

Some Examples

7000715
is a dispatch console
7017005 is a fire or misc city agency mobile radio
7022842 is a police portable radio

Alot of this seems outdated or not accurate anymore so wasnt sure if anyone knew what the new setup is or what

Detroit for sure is outdated since alot of fire dept radios start with 704

Non detroit stuff seems to be mostly accurate but is a bunch of missing stuff
