I picked up 2 unidentified talkgroups today playing with Trunk88... TGID 8400 was affilliated by RID 42233 and TGID 8208 was affiliated by RID 42603. In 2 hours of monitoring those radio IDs haven't accessed any other talkgroups hosted on the New Castle County towers.

Anybody seen them before or know what they are? I'm going to attempt getting some of the Fire talkgroups for the rebanding project in the next week or two from my fire station. I've got several fire police officers asking me to update their scanners.

Btw, Trunk88 is awesome, wish it had an easier interface though, I'm only using a portion of the functionality because I can't figure it out. Anybody know how to get it to ignore a specific radio ID? There's a radio that must have weak reception to one of the towers and keeps bouncing on and off the network and filling up my logs. RID 10570

Hello,
Both of those RID's are on the Kent system (TG 4176) and are EMS units with a long history.

The TG's you mentioned,
I logged 8400 on July-18 for the 1st time but no voice. 3 hits.
I logged 8204 on April-19 for the 1st time but no voice. 1 hit.

I don't run UT 24/7/365.

I bounce between running Unitruker on Kent and NCC sites so I cannot tell which site they came from but Kent is likely.

RID 10570 appears to be a Deldot radio and usually affiliates to TG21712. It may be bouncing between Kent and NCC systems....maybe. Not all that active a group as far as voice.

Thanks for the RID history showing up in Kent.

RID 10570 is very likely a Deldot radio, I'm only showing it on TG 21712. Over and over again...

0:00:45 Radio 10570 affiliated to KN-AREA9 - Middletown Yard - Area 9 (TG#=21712)
0:00:45 Radio 10570 deaffiliated [was on KN-AREA9 - Middletown Yard - Area 9 (TG#=21712)]
0:00:53 Radio 10570 affiliated to KN-AREA9 - Middletown Yard - Area 9 (TG#=21712)
0:00:54 Radio 10570 deaffiliated [was on KN-AREA9 - Middletown Yard - Area 9 (TG#=21712)]

I've got that around every 10 seconds. I don't know if it's a weak signal or a weird scan setup.

Thanks for the help!

ok, 8208 is looks like it's for the new Middletown ER doctor consult channel. Couldn't find out what 8400 is. But, I also have other new talkgroups...

8240 Crozer ER doctor consult. I didn't right down the official alpha tags for these two.

10512 NFP-2 new castle county fire police 2
10544 NFP-3 new castle county fire police 3
10704 NFP-4 new castle county fire police 4
10736 NFP-5 new castle county fire police 5
these supplement 10576 which has been labelled N-FIREPOL on previous flashes (there are 5 fire police zones in NCC, and they will now have private channels to keep radio traffic simpler if there are large incidents in different zones)

also... 4304 K-KGH6 and 4336 K-KGH7 have been renamed from ER 1 and ER 2 respectively.

and while I was working, TGIDs 7216 and 7120 popped up. RID 14496 was used for both. That RID was also seen transmitting on 19216 which is the Newark PD Dispatch channel
