Talkgroups Pertinent to New Jersey Turnpike

[KC1UA]

Hello,

Towards the end of February, my family and I will be making our yearly drive to Florida. In the past I've experienced some pretty good listening to the NJSP TRS. However, I've never been able to pick out too many "Turnpike-Specific" communications as I was definitely trying to listen to too much. This time around I'd like to concentrate more on listening to turnpike operations. Am I correct that the following talkgroups (copy/paste from this site's database) will specifically be what I need to listen to the New Jersey Turnpike:

27024 699 B2-14 NWKTP 3-COMM Troop D Turnpike (Newark)
27056 69b B5-14 C/CTP NJ TURNPIKE CAR-TO-CAR
53264 d01 C3-14 NBKTP NJ TURNPIKE 1-COMM (Cranbury)
26992 697 C6-12 MTNTP NEW JERSEY TURNPIKE 2-COMM Moorestown Station

I don't see anything specific listed for Zone A (South).

If anyone can comment it would be much appreciated. I'll be transiting the entire turnpike from it's north entrance all the way to the Delaware Memorial Bridge.

Thanks!

Scott, those talkgroups should be fine for your trip down the Turnpike. If you need the radio codes they are on my website:

Okay here's a question I've meaning to ask, and it is semi-pertinent to the thread, so here it goes.

Do each of those Turnpike TGs broadcast over all three systems or only their respective system. Meaning can I listen to Troop B from all the way south, or can I only listen to the "South" TG while in that area?

In Troop A & B area's, you will only hear the local talkgroup. In Troop C, you can here all 3 of them.

Thanks for the replies, folks. Just to confirm, there will be no other talkgroups that will be of direct benefit with regards to Turnpike Ops, right?

Much appreciated.

Okay, and that's the same IDs on all three systems, right? Does troop C's system cover the whole state or just the that area?
