South Region RIC DTR channels

[natedawg1604]

Does anyone know what the below TG's are utilized for? Also which agencies have them programmed in radio caches? I don't believe I've ever heard them in use but maybe somebody out there has.

South Region includes Fremont, Custer, Pueblo, Huerfano, and Las Animas
SW Region includes Dolores, San Juan, Montezuma, La Plata, and Archuleta
SC Region includes Lake, Park, Chaffee, Teller, El Paso.

If you are familiar with Red NW, Blue NE, Green SE, etc. in the Denver Metro area, these are the same for those regions.

Interesting. Do any agencies actually use them?

They are not talkgroups that comes to anyone's mind to use for interop (at least in my part of Colorado,,,,southwest). SW MACs are the go-to interop channels,, however rare that may be.

I'm not sure, I'm nowhere near those areas.

Part of the reason that the Denver Metro area uses its RICs so often is because of the variety of different radio systems. Down in Southern Colorado from what I know you either are on CCNC, on VHF, or on both. If everyone shares each other's talkgroups to communicate on a regular basis they don't really need to use the RICs. Or if there aren't a lot of outside resources coming into other's territory there is no need to use them either.

I will hear activity on the Southeast MAC TGs usually Parole or a task force working a stake out. Most of the activity is in Pueblo or Colorado Springs area once in a while the activity will make it down to Walsenburg or Trinidad.
