Saw an article this week in the local Union County times that Mifflinburg got a grant to upgrade police dept. equipment including P25 compatible radios. That would end it for me unless a crackhead deal came along.

I have a unication g3 that dose p25 so I'm already set for p25 Im jaut looking for the analog tones for all of union county

 

[wtp]

he is looking for the 'plectron' alert tones.

That scannernuts site is decades out of date.

Some of the frequencies are but the Dispatch tones are not. I still program them for people every day, as I said I keep it updated as they change.

I have heard It to and am looking to help any station get ahead for paging

I also heard that they would keep one of the current fire dispatch frequencies. Do you work for one of the radio maintenance?

I work for a company that dose p25 pager and radios and dose programming for the pager and radios

Ok thanks. With the current system couldn’t they have a single dispatch frequency and use the frequencies from both counties as tactical channels for tanker fills and etc

Once they go p25 analog will be useless unless they have a patch for it but they can keep the analog dispatch but only for that

 

[alexguf]

Thanks

They've been having issues with the audio from the console on Snyder Fire 1 for a week or so. I think they got it fixed.

Yes. Still early stages but I would venture to guess they would do Analog paging and digital ops channels. Probably stay conventional repeaters/simplex channels.

All counties have to have a digital dispatch as well the only thing with the analog dispatch will just be a patch for the digital dispatch

That's completely incorrect. If they're using conventional setup (non-trunked) they can do whatever they want for dispatch. Perry, Juniata, Huntingdon, Blair, Fulton, to name a few, are all conventional systems with digital ops channels.

Good to know that some stations in a different county were fed the wrong information when I ran with the one station k use to belong to we were told we have to have all digital and then only a vhf dispatch channel

I would say the confusion is with the use of the word "digital". A lot of people use digital as trunked instead of P25.

Yeah I have noticed union dispatch channel has been very weird lately
