With the new system, these channels are no longer in service

Worcester Co/OC radios are gonna have the Delaware P25 TGs in their radios, and vice versa, right? No reason for a patch?

Heard a page went out system will be down temporarily today. Fire units told to go to 8-tac94. Might be a good day to listen to the 8tacs.

I heard the same in NCC. Is the entire system down state-wide? Gonna be a rough going from a couple dozen digital channels to four analog channels.

Also, how do the 8Tac repeaters work? Coverage is definitely worse compared to the digital system. I think the dispatchers rely on superior receivers to hear everyone county-wide, whereas the mobiles and portables can only hear transmitters within a relatively short range.

How are Worcester / OC units handled now when they enter Sussex? Their Harris subscriber cannot do SmartZone. If the call is close to the border, they could still operate on their home system and be patched to Sussex. I don't think that the Delaware P25 system is programmed into Worcester / OC subs yet.

The Ocean City / Sussex 'patch' is running today, both on Ocean City's system and the Delaware P25 system. It also looks to be "patched" to tg 223 - Sussex Fire 2.

NCC Fire/EMS units were instructed to switch to the zones that have the new system. I got my eyes on the codeplug this week. Will be submitting info in a day or two.
