they are both gone
OPP switchover to LMRN
- Thread starter Muxlow
- Start date
I wonder which way they will move next?... keep headed towards the GTA, or north into Huron County etc...
Just announced that Oxford county will move to the new system today
Tillsonburg BEAT Repeater is no longer in the clear
Oxford County OPP have made the move

These guys are just zooming along with this aren't they!
EMS it was 1 area per week. Now it's 1 OPS group per day, it seems.

Probably have a lot of the “kinks” ironed out by now.
At 11AM a message went out over the talkgroup 1OPS12 (Perth?) on FleetNet advising everybody to follow the instructions that they were provided to transition their radios over to the new detachment talkgroups. If assistance is needed, return to detachment.

That's the typical message that's been given over the last week to each area. So looks like today 1OPS12 is going bye bye and whatever FleetNet towers are in use out that way.
So far this would make Essex, Elgin, Lambton, Middlesex, Oxford and now Perth. Not sure if Huron 1OPS07 has changed over or not.

I was passing through the GTA this week heading to Owen Sound and I heard a transmission for all Mississauga units to report for radio programming. I had my SDS100 with me. I didn't catch what tower or TG it was on. It was Monday afternoon and I was on the 410.
Niagara/Burlington OPP has been doing some odd patching and testing last 2-3 days. I expect next week they'll be over as well. (Bouncing back and forth between Orillia and London while consoles are upgraded; and BMR techs making numerous test messages and verifying vehicle numbers/banner info)
Yeah because now things get real if they mess up with the GTA switch over. Talking double or triple the units per talk group and messing up could literally get an officer killed in the line of duty if comms drop.

When Essex County changed over they had something like 140 ish radios on their talkgroup. Mobiles, Portables, Detachment radios couple boats. Middlesex County is huge and the Byron tower. Think they have it all figured out by now. If the Byron tower had an issue I think that would of been a major problem but all seems to be going swell for them
The MOH probably has far more units loaded on the system than the OPP will have so I'd say the system has been stress tested enough.
Hi guys, I've had my suspicions. I closed my feed this morning, because I did not hear anything on my radio today.
There was one OPP and a MTO that maybe did not get the message, but now they are gone. Goodbye to the OPP, but I think better things will come after that.

The only new thing to keep on top of is additional voice frequencies and tweaking of the neighbor lists on all the sites.
Not to mention why the Toronto site has gone offline, with a temporary one in it's place. Curious it would die so soon. I had noticed the RSSI on Site 40 had been greatly reduced before going offline entirely. I wonder if a PA failed or something?
