Updated DRJTBC Talkgroup list

[W2SJW]

Guys,

I've updated the DRJTBC data into the database.

Plan to see some major changes to the 3 troops in the next few weeks. I'm going to wipe out all 3 system & re-enter them in logical group ordering so that all 3 systems look the same when you view them.

I just spent 20 minutes correcting all those damn entries in ALL CAPS (don't even get me started!)in Troop C, to have half of them not stick when submitted!

I'm not a fan of All Caps either, when it is possible I don't care for them in the Alpha Tag either. Looking forward to seeing what it looks like after the rebanding and the changes you make. Sounds interesting.

Also, the grouping is going to be more 'common sense' as well. The whole 'fleet' layout is an archaic throw-back to the assignment limitations in place when the system was Type-I. I believe that grouping the TGID's into logical sets makes it easier to pick what you want to place in your scanner (i.e. - placing the toll-road talkgroups by themselves in a category called 'NJ Highway Authority Patrols' or 'Toll Road Units').

You get my basic feel, though! :lol:

Sure do, I guess it will be time consuming, but, when it's done, it should make the data more controllable, and easier to find the talk groups your interested in.

... I monitor this system every day along with Mercer Co and Trenton City... the only channel that seems to be active in district one is TBC 1 OPS S (41104) no matter what's happening... it's interesting, especially in the winter as bridge monitors give radio checks every hour with precipitation reports... when there is a major crime in Trenton or Falls Twp. the TBC tells their bridge monitors (as if they could really do anything about it lol)... it's not a busy system except for radio checks but every once in a while it gets interesting like when a bridge monitor found a dead body under the "makes" bridge a few months back...
