In the few minutes I've been here I've heard traffic from two districts in Troop D. I do not believe, based on what I've heard, there have been any changes. I would again suggest that you check your programming and antenna.

Kernersville PD on their TRS uses that when”holding routine traffic” on a channel. It is a reminder to the users.
I was in Gastonia today, before heading back to Raleigh, where at least two of the towers on this license are located and I was getting no signal on either one of those frequencies. Hope someone in that area will follow up on this.

I turned all banks off but NCSHP waited and heard Dist 2 and Dist 7. Radio transmissions are sparce. Thanks again.
I'm a bit confused: I'm listening to TGID 52200 TROOP G DIST4 Buncombe Co on site 067 (43) Murphy. The traffic refers to dispatch as Newton which is Troop F. Is the TGID 52200 now part of Troop F? What is going on?
Newton dispatches for Troop F and G
Hey guys - newbie to scanning (ham for ~10 years). Dad was a radio dispatcher for NCSHP in the 70's and 80's. So much content to take in to learn this hobby! Looking to cut through the clutter to get some advice for equipment. Is Home Patrol all that Main interest is law enforcement listening in the Raleigh/Wake County area. I noticed on here that the NCSHP Troop C feed is gone. Is that due to encryption? Is it worth it to get into the hobby with more departments going to encrypted broadcasts? Any links for me to go check out would be welcome. Thanks in advance!
@ncst8lvr the NCSHP is not encrypted on the normal dispatch/troop channels (some special ops, air, and gov security are). The Home Patrol should work fine, except that the Wake/Raleigh system is simulcast and you might have issues due to that. Currently the Wake system is Motorola Type II, which is supposed to change to P25 Phase 1 by mid/late next year. VIPER is P25 Phase 1 until probably 2025, when it is scheduled to change to Phase 2. Apex and Morrisville is on the Cary system and all law enforcement is encrypted.
Two new VIPER license grants yesterday, one for Sanford NC in Lee Co (WRJH475), and the other for Wentworth NC, in Rockingham Co (WRJH476). Construction Deadline for both licenses is 8/31/2021.
Now to figure out if this will be either a change in freqs for each site, or, added capacity (channels) for each site?
I would suspect it will be frequency changes, both sites are 800mhz sites and the move has been to change to the new 700mhz freqs, which matches both licenses.
Granville dispatching Vance calls on Viper SW CALL TG 52255
Did catch Vance and a new TG#60696
I have logged 60695 and 60696 several times being used by USMS usually with a local agency, it may be a FED Common or shared talkgroup. Last time I heard it they were in Robeson Co.
Thanks they were working Spring Lake area today
Does anyone know what the tg name for 52686 is ? According to the LID Numbers it is the NC ALE that uses this tg. The lid i am seeing is 2010889 and also a Pitt county lid.
It's not in the ALE TG range, but it could be a shared or spare TG. I see a lot of different users on TGs in the 52684 to 52694 range, might see it used once then a totally different set of users the next week.
Gotcha, thanks for the info.
New 700mhz VIPER license for Four Oaks NC in Johnston County. Anyone out there know if it is live or future?
