Winston Salem / Forsyth County P25 TG list building

[NCFireman11]

Going back to my recordings from last week, FCSO Jail personnel briefly were using TG 1511 for radio checks. It sounded like some of them stayed on this TG for a while and forgot to switch back to the Type II system because they would ask for something and never get a response. "Master Control" was the ones calling various jail personnel.

Based on some clues gathered from bits of recent traffic, I believe TG 2000-2003 will be the four WSPD Dispatch TGs. Similarly, 1500 and 1501 will likely be the two FCSO dispatch TGs. More radio demos occurring this week and well over 100 TGs logged now. Hopefully the switch is in the near future!

All TGs on the system appeared to be nicely laid out in blocks which will be helpful for identifying users. For instance, thus far: the 1000 block is EMS-to-Hospital; The 1200 block will likely be FCFD; The 1500 block is assigned to FCSO; The 2000 block is WSPD; TGs 2400 and above seem to be services and public works.

I concur, based on what I've listened to from recordings. It also looks like all public safety RIDs will in the 67XXXX series, to match their RID on VIPER. From what I've heard, there will be no patching of the old and new systems, the old Type II will go offline and the P25 system will become live.

I had not put that together, but you are indeed correct about the parallels to VIPER. The Guilford County units I have heard on the system all have 81xxxx RIDs which match their VIPER RIDs.

I was up there last week.

The Type II system was alive and well.

Doing great no problems

Davie Co on Viper was working great as well

So I managed to get a hold of what the fire side of the new system will look like the blue box's with a lower case e means the talk group will be encrypted.

Wow! You've got the whole fleetmap! That's hard to come by.
Now that we know what's out there, we just have to find the talkgroup IDs for each. (the hunt begins...)
