Heavy traffic this morning on 6077 over Union County. 2470008, 2470012, 2470018, and 2470020. It's interesting that the RID's are so close together. I'd think if it was NJSP it'd be sightly more random.

Cape May County
I am located in Cape May. I currently have a Whistler 1080 which I listen to Middle Twp, Lower Twp, and Wildwood Crest on the NJICS. The only way these towns come in clear is the one "sweet spot" in my house. Has anyone had better results with the new Uniden SDR 100 scanner monitoring the Cape May simulcast? Before I invest the money I would like to know if it is worth it or stay with the 1080. Thanks.

You could spend the same amount of money on a Unication G5 pager and get a smaller size, better battery life, better coverage, better performance in LSM environments, louder audio and easier use. Just my 2 cents...
I am suspecting from what I am seeing that the lower 237xxxxx radios are NJSP GSP/TPK Portables.

I had the same problem with the 436 last winter when monitoring NJICS. It was almost completely deaf around my house, but after a couple weeks of experimenting I finally found one sweet spot and parked it there. Oddly enough, when I got the SDS, I started carrying the 436 around with it for comparison. Well, something obviously had changed, because the 436 was now receiving quite well all around the house. Where the SDS has proven clearly superior is when monitoring from my vehicle (much less garble and dropped transmissions) and in fringe areas. For example, the SDS still achieves nearly perfect decode from 12 miles outside the Union County simulcast region (holding on that site), while the 436 is completely deaf (this is with a Remtronix 800 on both units). I think it's safe to say that the the odds are very good that the SDS will solve your problem. Of course, there are no guarantees, so make sure you get a proper return policy.
I've looked long and hard at Unication, great radios, but just too limited for my needs. I think the G5 is overkill for NJICS anyway, at least in my area - the SDS gets the job done. And the fact that they still haven't implemented a convenient way to hold on a talkgroup (besides creating a dedicated knob position) concerns me. I also intend to use the SDS on road trips - it's ability to accommodate such a massive database, together with Uniden's patented GPS tuning, is truly unique.

I agree with Paulie Walnuts.
Getting a lot of activity on TGID 4189 Regional Interoperability-Delaware River Region 1- What are these channels for?

Last time there was activity on those channels it was a municpal police dept in Cumberland County that lost their VHF channel due to a lightning strike and were waiting for NJICS to give them their own channel. They now have 2 channels. For the life of me I can't remember the city name but its in the database. They used the Delaware River TGs for a few months...
Bridgeton?
4189 is the Cumberland County Sheriff, It was added to the DB yesterday . I see the conflict as it is listed twice but the Sheriffs Department has been using this TGID for at least the last couple weeks. They were on VHF prior but that radio has went totally silent.

The system should have warned me it was a duplicate. I've removed it from Cumberland's listings.
Thanks!
6077 has been basically continuously active for the last day on the Union County side. All RID's in the 2470001-2470025 range as has been the case.

all encrypted?
Yup, unfortunately. Starting to question if it's NJSP with RID's being in such a consistently tight range.
