I am not hearing anything where I am at, but that makes sense as the towers are all very much East of me.

 

[mmisk]

I wonder if this site will be part of the fire services upgrade? Will keep and eye on it.

Perhaps this will shed some light on it? TAFL Search Results

I heard some testing on 163.575 over a week ago; did not say who they were but looking at location of various sites atop water towers, should give a good idea.

Activity starting up on 163.275/163.575 system, TG 1,2,3 so far, mostly in french.

Wonder if it relates to UCPR ( United Counties of Prescott, Russell) as it identifies in the Turris license?

They are Fire Dept. for all Prescott-Russell.

TG-1 TO TG-18

How do you program this for a 436? DMR One frequency? or MotoTRBO?

 

[mciupa]

Do MotoTRBO as two frequencies appear to have activity.

I'm using a TYT-UV390 Tier 1 and 2. I put the 2 frequencies 163.275/163.575 and CC3 TS2 and it works for me. scan. I don't miss a thing.

I've created a trunk system Turris Communications - United Counties of Prescott, Russell Trunking System, Various, Ontario - Scanner Frequencies but need channel numbers for scanners to work properly. Also, please notify me of the systemID

 

[va3bnr]

I know ID's

• 3001 Ottawa Dispatch
• 3004 Hawkesbury Dispatch

It's all Fire Dept.

 

[mciupa]

Thanks for those, but they sound like radio ID's. I'm looking for the trunked radio system ID from Turris Communications.

 

[va3bnr]

So far they only used TG-1 to TG18. I know TG-6. It's call Ottawa. I'm doing some testing with a friend. So DEC 6, Mode T, Alpha Tag Ottawa

 

[DaveH]

It is trunked, TS1 and TS2 are both used. If CC on one frequency is on TS1, voice can only be on TS2, but
that might change, and other frequencies can have VC on either slot.

RIDs so far are 30xx, 25x, and 91x ranges.

I get a lot of multipath on 163.275; or possibly receiving more that one site (other than S2-1.1), if there is other also
transmitting? Don't think simulcasting (in the real sense) works on DMR-type systems.

[DaveH]

Does anyone know location of Site 2-1.1? There are several locations licensed.

T III channel numbers for 163.275 are 47 and 48. There may be a bandplan based on 7.5kHz steps.

TG 10 heard, RID 812.

[DaveH]

System has two frequencies and two channels per frequency; channels are known for 163.275. Not sure where Ch 24 in the DB comes from.

Do scanners need the channel numbers for tracking?

Recalling an older thread, I'm following this formula:

DSDPlus uses LSNs.
Separated into LSN pairs (those are two timeslots, associated with one LCN). Take the higher numbered LSN of the pair, divide by 2, and you get the LCN. Uniden wants the LCN. Each LSN pair is tied to an LCN (which is the higher numbered LSN of the pair divided by 2).

 

[DaveH]

Does anyone know location of Site 2-1.1? There are several locations licensed.

BTW paging frequency associated with system is 143.550, some digital format, not sure if it's active yet. Link
is on 414.0875.

Does anyone know if Clarence-Rockland has switched over i.e. from 152.960?
