Ross County MARCS help

[45601]

Can anyone tell me where to find everything I need to program for OHSP Post 71 and 65? Also the information for the Ross County fire departments using MARCS? I have Ross Co Sheriff and Chillicothe Police and Fire. I previously had Post 71 and 65 but I understand they switched to MARC IP. Thanks!

By the way, I have a BCD996XT.

None of the Ohio state highway patrol have switched yet to the Marc's-ip. They are saying the switch will happen this summer sometime

Thanks. Anyone have anything on the talkgroups for the FDs?

Ohio MARCS-IP: Multi-Agency Radio Communications (P25) Trunking System, Various, Ohio - Scanner Frequencies

Ross county sheriff and Chillicothe FD Dispatch and pd dispatch are on the marcs-ip system

Right, but there are a handful of township FDs using it too and I can't find anything for that.

If you have not done so try running it in search mode. Other whise they are probley on the old vhf/uhf systems

I might try the search. Ross County is still dispatched on the old VHF system but it's extremely unreliable so they're switching to MARCS, basically one department at a time. VHF is still the primary but at least 3 departments are using MARCS and at least one more by the end of summer.

Ross County Fire Dispatch: XFD71DSP = 42508.

Forgot to submit it. Concord Twp (600), Harrison Twp (1400) and Franklin Twp (1800) received radios from the Fire Marshals grant, but still use VHF primarily.
