Still picking up encrypted unknown federal agency on VIPER TG 60809 with RID of 29152xx and 29153xx, most recently off the Archdale tower in Raleigh.

Anyone know who would be using the callsign ZODIAC? It's on one of the events talkgroups so not really any help there. Seeing radio id's such as 37xxxx (6 digits instead of 7 I'm used to seeing),135xxxx, 2160xxx, and a random SHP dispatch console thrown in. Checked the wiki and most aren't on there except for the SHP dispatch.

Typically, when I have heard callsigns like that it was training. Also many counties (Alamance to Jackson as the alphabet goes) use six digit RIDs. The 37 is Chatham County, 135 was Orange Co, 216 was SHP. The Wiki doesn't list every RID just enough to give an idea who you are hearing.

That would make sense as I haven't really heard anything related to any kind of operations. Just more like "zodiac<#> can you go pick up <name removed>, he's ready"

Thanks!

I believe Avery county was conducting an exercise over the weekend on Bravo 1 so that's likely what you were hearing.

FYI, Avery participated in a drowning recovery, and first responder illness at Elk River Falls this weekend.

This wasn't this weekend, it's been going on this morning on Golf 4. Heard them a bit ago say they are about to drop paratroopers, then they recovered them from the water.
