Does NJ State Police still use the Central Simulcast site of the Motorola Type II system for the Toms River area of Ocean County? I don't see any Ocean County sites for the NJICS P25 system. Thanks!

Yes they can still be heard on the type ll smartzone system on Central simulcast. I had heard from someone close to the system that said that it would be phased out by the end of 2022 but I wouldn't expect that is etched in stone.

This just posted. Looks like the Motorola Type II 800MHz SmartZone system is on its way out?

Yeah, we probably should keep just one of the threads going. Man I've been listening to that system for a long, long time but it's time.

Yes,you would use Bordentown Simulcast for the Toms River area. There’s a sub site located at the NJDOT yard on Route 37.

I took elias1988's advice and used the Bordentown site of the NJICS P25 system for NJ State Police. Sounds like I made the right choice. Thanks for everyone's input.

Yes that's what I listen to, I live across the river from Bordentown in Pennsylvania. I'm right on the river, biggest thing I listen to is 10 com TG 2299, Marine Division dispatch. I live right across from Burlington Marine Division station who controls the Delaware River but most of the activity is on the Jersey Shore.

Expect cutover from 4.1 system to new 20.20 system to take place around the end of September.
I see (hear) the following. On the very busy legacy Smartzone North in Union County.

No longer is majority of B2-5 on legacy, it is just the opposite. Most traffic now on ICS sites in the area. Sometimes the legacy can be quite for long periods of time while ICS is hopping with B2-5 traffic. Of course depending on affiliation they appear randomly on ICS 7,8, 28,33 and 60. I am certain it is not hard patched all the time to any one ICS sites.

Never was (wouldn't be a "patch" anyway). The P25 system carries traffic at sites based on affiliation to maximize efficiency.

Kinda cool getting Ed’s feedback and seeing it slowly fade away. Can now understand what is happening now.

As we all know....Moto can change the date on conversion without notice. So, keeping fingers crossed that the end of Sept is still on.

NJT just started dismantling their old Smartnet system and the recyclers cleared out the West Orange site of all MSF and Micor hardware along with the CSC and local site controllers. The end of an era! Only took 8 years of being shut down though to get the stuff out the door. The rest of the sites should be done in the coming weeks with no remains of Motorola to show for. 1988-2013 RIP20220711_122905-1024x1365.jpg
