Quick Question

Where do I find the system sid at? I'm sure I have used it before. Thanks for all your help.

Look in the RR Database and you will see the following info in the header of a trunked system.

System Name: Grand Prairie
Location: Grand Prairie, TX
County: Dallas
System Type: Motorola Type II SmartZone
System Voice: Analog and APCO-25 Common Air Interface
Sysid: 2515
CT: 105.88

For conventional info you will see blue brackets [] just hover your curser over the brackets

What is the Sysid used for?

 

[crazyboy]

To tell different trunked systems apart. Each system has its own SysID

Only reason I want to know is because of the features I got when I became donating member.

I've encountered several systems that do not transmit the ID. Sometimes it can be because of signal %, but these are 90-99%.

The "sid" and the "SysID" are not the same thing. The "sid" is a RadioReference.com database key and has nothing to do with the SysID of Motorola systems. Also, you as the RR Member using the value added features do not need to know the "sid" for any reason (unless you want to develop your own software). The software you are using will address any need to link between the various keys in the database.

All Motorola and Project 25 systems broadcast a system ID. Other trunking systems (EDACS, etc.) do not have them.

I've been using trunktrackers since the 1st one came out, and I do know what the moto CC sounds like. I've encountered several (6-10) 800 & 900 systems that are not transmitting a sysId that the 97/2055 can decode.

Interesting. I wonder how the "real" radios work, since they require the sysid on the CC to make sure they don't affiliate with the wrong system.

I would not think so. Looking at the trunking system that Stark County uses it appears that most public safety is digital and a lot of it is encrypted.

thank you

thank you for the info.i guess i will buy the uniden396t, just though i would ask.
