TLC operating on Sheriff talkgroups DOITT UHF

Are you sure they’re TLC? If it is then maybe the talkgroups are wrong
The announcement of the Covid Checkpoint program said:
"The checkpoints will be operated by various law enforcement agencies, with the New York City Sheriff's Office coordinating the effort "at major bridge and tunnel crossings."
Since the Sheriff is "coordinating the effort" it seems logical TLC and other agencies would operate on the Sheriff's TG when participating.

This is on the older SmartZone system, which has been in use for years. Improbable that all of a sudden the talkgroups are wrong. I was listening to it myself live this afternoon, although I don't listen to the system enough to distinguish between NYC Sheriff and TLC units.
The TLC units were going over the air as “TLC 565 to central” etc, so they were TLC units. One would assume they are using APX8000’s if they are going over the older UHF smartzone system...unless the sheriff’s office gave them loaner radios.
