The very bottom in the Essex county trunked systems. West Orange P25. There is a control channel on the air, but no traffic yet.

I just updated Sentinel and the new system is not showing up. Is anyone seeing it?

Scheduled switch over for the new system is end of September

Where did you hear this date? That's only 2 weeks away. It seems we would be hearing radio testing with a switchover that close. I set up the system in my SDS200 this morning and did not hear a peep all day.

I cannot guarantee the accuracy of that info..... It's what I was told from a source within the PD. We will see.

WO is doing their own P25 system and not using NJICS?

P25 control channel is currently active on 853.6625 so I guess they have the hardware in place. I thought someone had mentioned a while ago that NJICS had capacity issues so maybe that was not an option for them.

WOW! If this statement is true... NJICS is a COMPLETE joke of a system! o_O

It sounds like there is some radio testing this morning. TG 105 is showing up. Hearing radios keyed up with just some background noise so far.
