New Jersey Interoperability Communication System (NJICS)

I know Millburn Fire and EMS are testing with new radios on the statewide system. I got it on good authority today that Millburn Police will be making the switch as well. No time frame, I was told the purchase order hase to be submitted so it could be sooner then later. Unknown on encryption, I certainly hope not.
Decided to drive around the Pine Barrens yesterday, and found the Control Channel (774.60625) for Site 21 to be pinned green on Unitrunker in the area of New Lisbon by Brendan T Byrne SF and the intersection of Rts. 70/72. When I drove around last year looking for the location of this site, I thought it would be in the Red Lion area, but the signal is weak there. Perhaps Site 21 is permanent for coverage in the Pemberton/New Lisbon area? Agencies passing Phase 1 & 2 voice traffic on this site included DEP, MONOC, DOT and NJ Transit from the hour that I ran the system.
It a good possibility there will be encryption on the PD side. They are also looking to put a BDA in the mall to increase the coverage.
“904 road department” has been mentioned.... also just heard this agency clearing from a MV accident on route 17 south in Rochelle Park, possibly Bergen county roads dept?
About 15 minutes ago I heard a county agency call in a mva same location on tg 104 on the Bergen County TRS. FYI, Chuck.
County fire marshal signing on now, talking about a fire alarm at the police academy in mahwah.
A BDA?
By the way, on both of these calls, they prefaced it with "On county all call" tg 104 BC TRS. FYI, Chuck.

BDA is a bi directional amplifier used to enhance signal coverage within enclosed structures.

TG 4923 testing.. short hills mall area....
Heard some testing on TG 4923/Union County this evening with a 2017xxx ID, so presuming Springfield. One of the guys talking said their officers will be happy with the radio range.
4501 seems to be an unused NJTPD talkgroup. I have logged it before but only with a couple of hits
