Radio Communications System (800 MHz) sub fleets fixed

[jerk]

Is there a web site that goes into more detail on how to map these fleets/sub fleets out, I do not totally understand how it works, I would like to learn how to map this stuff out. I looked at the wiki, everything is breif, does not go into much detail.

Figuring Out Fleet Maps
Determining Motorola Type I Fleetmaps - The RadioReference Wiki
The relationship between Type I, II, and IIi protocols

A spreadsheet program set-up to play around and double-check Type II ID's into Type I ID's
Not mine, just found it on the Internet and seems to work correctly.

THANKS!!!!!!!!! I might learn enough to be dangerous!

I've been playing with them for a year and still mess it up.
The key I think is the ability to listen, hear and watch as you're trying to figure things out.
Unfortunately my listening time is limited as I can't hear the system form home.
When you hear someone say switch to channel two and you get the ID, it's much easier to guess the block size.

Plus, these are commercial systems, set-to maximize money return from users, so the fleet maps don't fit the usual patterns described in those articles.

Let me know how that fleet map is working, Blocks 1,2 and 4 are Type II, hopefully we'll get it fixed in the RR database.

Please use this following fleet map

A request to make of all who monitor this system...
PLEASE USE THIS FLEET MAP S0,S0,S2,S3,S0,S6,S2,S11...
If everyone will use this fleet map, which appears to be the best for the system year 'round, to monitor AND discover TGIDs to submit then much of the confusion that abounds with this one will go away.... over the next few weeks there will be modifications going on that should have this one working as advertised well before Derby Fest 2011.... Please, with your submissions, include the Fleet Map used ti make the TGID discoveries.....
As always, thanx for the help and understanding!
