yesterday and this morning.

I heard that today as well - 45 minutes north of you. Talkgroup 748. Did not catch enough traffic to determine usage. He was talking to a female dispatch. I caught it as he was about to "set her down". Definitely helo, and not your "normal" traffic.

 

[RohnsRadio]

no thats all i heard.

Be prepared to hear all types of conversations on the analog statewide
events TGs Alpha-Delta...I have heard everything from local Wake Co
PDs doing undercover investigations to Federal agencies doing investigations to NG training exercises.
Heck, I even have these TGs in my city issued XTS5K.
Users are supposed to coordinate with state EOC before keying
up for the 1st time but I know that does not always happen like it should.
I would always keep them in a scan list/system being scanned as you never know what you might hear.

Hey Marshall - Just a quick thanks for the heads up on these analog TG's. I had overlooked them when I last programmed my PRO-164 so long ago but at your suggestion put them in last night and am getting a bunch of new and interesting traffic. Good fun!
