From what I remember hearing last fall, they already had the radios ready by Thanksgiving, but have for some weird reason put it off until now. UPD may have more channels, but I have only found their primary channel so far.

I heard from someone that HPD has 6 channels of their own, as well as some other local stuff. If I lived closer I would run Pro96Com for a while and see what pops up. All it takes is someone to flip to that channel and it shows up whether or not they transmit.

Some Additional Info...

I noticed that the SHSU UPD channel(s?) almost exclusively come up on the 102 site.

On 102?? That's wierd for sure. Got a 600 foot tower not 6 miles away, but they are hitting the 300 footer 12-15 miles away. I know the elevations on campus are tricky at best, but that is strange. Maybe they got a BDA pointed at 102 in dispatch.

last night they ran most of the transmission regarding the shots fired on campus over that channel. I guess they just used it so a channel could be allocated solely for the situation.

When I saw that on the news, I thought that that would be a perfect time to look for more talkgroups. Maybe there aren't any after all.
