Hi, again

I have nothing more to report about post #260 above.
There appears to be some sort of ongoing occurrence in the Yorkton region.
RID 2212972 appears to be utilized by Yorkton Command. See the screenshot.

Hi, kylep997

Nice work, thanks for posting the screenshot for us to see.
The RID that logged in on site #153 has been seen several times before on that site = a local.
The five other RIDs seen communicating on TG 6142 have never been seen before today.
I have just updated the PPSTN radio IDs Google document. These guys do have a lot of radios.

Keep-on posting, Cheers

Hi, all

RCMP F-Division DOCC relocated their dispatchers to the basement. See the RIDS 2219201 and 2219204 in the screenshot.

Now what brought this about? Have todays "events" caused this reaction? One can only speculate.

Hello, again

This is an update to my last post #264.

In the screenshot you will see the RIDs 2219206 and 2219207 that were also in use today. From what I have been seeing on the PPSTN and in a couple of instances posting here, it appears that the RCMP have been preparing for the upcoming events that will most assuredly escalate in the days ahead. I will make no comment about this.

Now, we must ask this question about our Canadian leadership. Do they posses the metacognitive ability to recognize deficiencies in their own knowledge or competence to lead/save us? Link: Dunning-Kruger effect | Definition, Examples, & Facts | Britannica

Hi, all

Yorkton RCMP-GIS and File Hills Police Service were busy yesterday afternoon. See the link and the screen shot.

The RCMP DOCC dispatchers all came out of the basement at midnight last night.

Hi, all

At 3:27 pm there was a PRT call to the Mosquito FNR #109-111 north of Cando in the North Battleford RCMP district.
Call was for a homicide scene that required 24 hour security.Mosquito Murder.png

Hi, all

Today at 12:27 pm a radio tech arrived here, RID 2212247.
At 2:16 pm this radio tech was seen testing the mobile RID 2212105=A280
on TG 12 and then using the RID 3210097 to conduct further testing with A280.
At 2:36 pm the radio tech continued the testing with RID 2212234=test equipment and A280.
At 2:28 pm A280 alerts DOCC for confirmation radio is operational.
At 2:52 pm the radio tech pulls out of town and a short time later is seen on TG 10.
At 3:20 pm DOCC is seen communicating with this radio tech on TG 10.

I have updated the PPSTN RID Google document with this information.

Cheers.

Hi, Kylep997​

Thank you for sharing your screenshots.

RID 2263079 is VIP-Trans portable #1.
RID 2263091 is VIP-Trans Mobile #1.
RID 2211483 is F-Div. Commander (no data bursts are ever sent by this unit).

No VIP Security Team RID login/joins on TG 217 are seen?

It appears that all of the RIDs seen in your screenshots were most likely logged in (affiliated)
onto a neighboring site to #153. They appear to be just on the fringe of your site so little is seen.

We should be seeing Login, Joins, and many Bursts from the two VIP units, but we don't.
They are just occasionally "hitting" on site #153, but not logging onto it for long.

Perhaps they traveled down to the border region along with the media?

Cheers,

There was RID's 2213018 and 2213002 that where on TG 50. RID 2211483 seems to login and out on TG 50. Why might this be? is the F-Div commander listening on what is being said on that talk group 50 or I am missing something? Thanks Again Mobby1-Kenobby.

Ok.

The RID 2213002 is a Melville Unit and RID 2213018 is a Melville portable.
Again I think that RID 2211483 was most likely on a neighboring site to #153.

All RCMP detachments, including F-Division HQ have a motor pool and a radio pool.
Members will go into the 'office' and pick a portable and the keys to a unit.
Then, out in the unit, the member will call the DOCC and 'login'.
This consists of the member's Regimental Number, Unit ID, and Portable number.

The RID 2211483 is one of the radios in the F-Division motor pool without AVL GPS.
This unit appears to be a black Chevy Suburban, and is possibly up-armored.
We do not know who was utilizing this unit but it was most likely one of the "big dogs".

Specialized RCMP members of ERT, CIRT, PDS, FIDU, MCU/GIS and others may have a
"favorite" or "assigned" unit that has been up-fitted for a specific purpose for use by
only a single member and no others.

The RID 2211483 is usually on TG 50 when I see it traveling through my area. This unit is
seen every Friday evening traveling east bound on the #10 highway and then it will be seen
again on Monday mornings traveling west bound on the #10 highway back to Regina.
The DOCC in Regina can not see the location of this unit displayed on their maps.

This behavior seldom changes unless it falls on a holiday long weekend, so it may be seen
on a Thursday afternoon of Monday afternoon. There are some very pleasant, lakefront
properties located in the parkland region north of Yorkton where one may enjoy some
time away from the office. A significant other person may be monitored on TG 50?

Much of this is but speculation on my part.

Cheers

Hello, today I saw RID 2213155 which I believe to be yorkton GIS log on to TG 163 at around 11:30 with 6 data bursts. I would provide screenshots but the weather knocked out power down here and I lost all of the data from the last couple of days so I am not sure what took place for the rest of the afternoon. Hope someone finds this interesting.

Hi, kylep997

That Yorkton GIS member spent Wednesday the 12th at my location and was also at my location on March 6th.
It appears this GIS member is a specialist in financial fraud investigations. An auditor. See my post #266.
The other Yorkton GIS members seen in this screenshot were at another location.

This may help prevent data loss in the future.
In Unitrunker select: "Options"-"Archive"-"Auto Save"="True"-"Grace"=20.0-"Keep"="Forever".
Cheers.

Hey Mobby, gathering some good data. I caught the all call about the Lloydminister holdup, monitored for a couple of hours but got nothing. Interesting how the towers work, I would of thought that Saskatoon would of at least been monitoring the situation.

How is ADSB working out. You mentioned the dongle wasn't receiving well, generally they don't, but I am not sure if you are running a filter.


Its needed especially in cities. Your range will go from 50 miles to 200. Not sure what antenna you are using but start with the filter.

Just looked at the price of that one, you can get a generic one from Ali Express for a lot cheaper.

Hello again, there is one RID that I have been carefully keeping an eye on the last while. 2216255 I thought was just regular CTS until I noticed something particular about 2216255. It seems to be unmarked and with only 19 hits over the last couple months and doesn't seem to interact with other traffic members in the way a regular member of CTS would. I looked at the Google Doc's sheet and it would seem this unit possibly took part in one of the PM's visits to sask some years ago. I have attached a screenshot if anyone is interested.

Hi, Kylep997

The RID 2216255 is the only RID that I have not seen before in that "group" of RIDs used by CTS members.
In Weyburn there are both RCMP Traffic Service units and WPS Combined Traffic Service units.
This RID could possibly be a new WPS-CTS Crime Reduction Team member? If it is look for it using a TAC-TG.
See the link for WPS-CTS Southern Region . No unit ID number or CTS markings are seen on this unit. Why?
