Is that a new TG you've got there? Nice catch!
EDIT: Just did a Forums search, and saw that you guys have been tracking it since Sept 2022... I'm a bit of a slow reader.

EDIT: Just did a Forums search, and saw that you guys have been tracking it since Sept 2022... I'm a bit of a slow reader.
So the last new days I've picked up quite of bit of traffic on TG 9038. It's the State Police running traffic stops in the Charleston area. I was receiving it off of the Huntington site.
I believe that is a training TG too. Training Dispatchers.
I wonder if that was the case, but the dispatcher that was working sounded squared away and definitely not new to dispatching.
Exactly what I heard as well. I was hearing the same dispatchers on the 9020 TG as well as 9007 (regular dispatch). I can't find the article but it was about a recent "operation" to ticket for various things like expired tags, no insurance, and the like. I'm definite that what I was hearing on 9020 was for a checkpoint. I'd suspect that 9038 was as well.
I wonder if they are using the separate TG just for running traffic stops and keeping the normal troop TG for calls?
WVSP two-day enhanced patrol results in hundreds of citations
CHARLESTON, WV (LOOTPRESS) – The West Virginia State Police conducted enhanced patrols from Tuesday, September 5th, 2023, through Thursday, September 7th, 2023. The following are the results of citations issued and arrests made during these three days. The WVSP thanks all motorists in our state...

Mostly. I think the ones assigned to the checkpoints and/or "enhanced patrols" were on the other channels and the regular shift troopers were on the regular dispatch channels.

Site 1.48 Wardensville Hardy County has been showing up on site 1.7 Martinsburg Berkeley County as isolated
Normally a very strong site from my QTH--cannot hear them at all tonight. The site doesn't even register on the RSSI--looks like it's down... good catch!

Marion Co EMS has their own dispatchers they use for non emergency transports they use the private talk group for that. Marion EMS for 911 calls

I'm not exactly local, but a bit closer than you are... I was able to copy Moorefield PD units, dispatched via Hardy County on the Romney site--but nil heard from anything on the Eastern side of the county. I was also listening to their VHF freqs, but they were quiet, too.

Anyone else notice the Jefferson site is in site trunking?
Looks like it's back up to normal now.
I wonder if this has anything to do with the item posted in August's SIRN minutes stating that:
"Aviat (Networks) advised microwave for Lost City in Hardy County will arrive October 2023."
Setting up and testing a microwave link would take a site down for a while, I'm guessing. And I've been meaning to take an afternoon drive down to Hardy County for quite some time now...
Regarding the Hardy and Hampshire SIRN...For the past week here in Hardy, I am getting nothing from either county's police or fire. I do hear WVSP just fine so I'm reasonably confident that my receiver is working properly. Going to take some debugging and research to figure out what's up, but clearly some changes have been made. Been very tied up with work and unable to spend time on this. Any solutions welcome right here.
