The new Sarpy County P25 system has had a few updates in the recent month and weeks, and has been operating in a more "active" manner!
1) The System ID has changed to the expected 0144 value but the Site ID has remained at the 124 value... the control channel has remained at 859.78750.
2) At this time, TGID4001 appears to be "Law East" as it's handling the usual Bellevue PD traffic and TGID4003 appears to be Law West as it's handling that traffic.
With the increased number of sites and geographical layout of the towers, I am able to reliably listen to the system in east central Cass county with nothing more than the portable antenna connected to my Uniden 436, and that's inside houses and buildings!
The audio quality is VERY good, and the system isn't even running Phase 2 TGs just yet. On the Washington County part of the system where Fremont PD operates, the Phase 2 audio almost has that "piercing" quality, though it is VERY clean-sounding as though you were sitting next to the dispatcher.
It's only a guess on my part, but considering the amount of time it's been on the air in "testing" mode, I would say that it won't be too long before departments are going to start moving from the old system to this new one.
I know we have an previous thread where a lot of observations were logged, but let's keep this thread going and log new TGIDs as we find them.
