Franklin squad tested their 41681 talkgroup, with a Greenfield squad on Greenfield 800, since then the simulcast are no longer up.

Looking for anyone who can ID this Alpha Tag, monitored briefly out of Rusk county, it was gone as fast as it appeared, "RCALL61NW."

From the Administrative Manual: Guidance for Talkgroups, Section A, will explain it in more depth.

I am attempting to load the Superior site in my bct 396T scanner. I have the band plan loaded correctly, and when I attempt to enter 153.1425, the radio keeps converting the freq to 153.1437.
Any possible work around this issue

Not sure what's going on there. That frequency makes no sense. Don't the T series do control channel only? That should solve the problem.

It looks like 153.1425 might be a typo in the database .

The license WQRL455 shows a frequency of 153.1475 instead.

Oops, I calculated it to check it but I think transposed something. Good catch.

Hospital Roll Call

Caught the Dept of Health and Family Services doing a roll call to area hospitals Friday morning around 10:20 am. Was on talkgroup 4961 calling themselves Drill Control I believe. Next region was set to start roll call at 10:30 am.

Heard that also of the Chippewa Falls tower.

I guess the official date for Greenfield WISCOM to go live is Monday, January 27th, 2014
Greenfield to launch new emergency communication system | FOX6Now.com
I am wondering if they will be using more than the 3 frequencies that are licensed for it?

I'm a little confused by your post here. The state (I believe) handles the licensing for WISCOM. Subscribers pay the state to maintain the system (and subsequent licensing).

 

[WIscannerguy24]

There are 3 800MHZ frequencies that are listed on the database for the Greenfield tower I am wondering if there will be more than 3 frequencies?

Two things:

1. Did anyone catch the user on SCALL1 last night at about 2000? It seemed to only be one side of a conversation and I didn't really understand what he was saying. I also noted a radio ID of 41200 which doesn't follow the State's ID plan. It does look like it follows the scan talkgroup convention of using the same ID for the radio object as the TGID. Any ideas?

2. I noticed Lampson switched it's control channel to 150.965 again. I've seen this happen occaisionally but it's always a temporary thing. When ever I have decoded the control channel it is never listed as an alternate. Any thoughts on setting it as an alternate in the database?

I think the 41200 you saw might be a console ID coming across the talkgroup OR possible an ID of a patch. I have seen some ID's set-up that when a conventional is patched to WISCOM the talkgroup # is used as the ID. Being that it was STAC1 and highly doubting something was patched to it I would assume that it might be a console ID that was showing up.

Give the description of what was going on I would have to say that it sounds like it was a console transmitting across STAC1 and that maybe they multi-selected on the STAC1 talkgroup and whatever other one that they were using.

Being that 41 is Milwaukee county I am wondering if it was a console of a PD. I would even go further to suspect that it could be Greenfield as they have been doing a lot of testing. Something like the console ID 41200 where 41 for Milwaukee County and the hundred digit is the local PD console.

Just my two pesos.

I think they are having problems with Lampson (again). I heard 7700 and 8800 conversing in the last few days about Lampson and doing checks on all the voice channels. Then they were saying if there is a problem there, 7700 wouldn't be able to get to it for a day or two.

That makes sense. Shouldn't need to change the database then.

I wonder who 8800 is?

Not sure. I kind of thought Eau Claire...but it could be an actual State Radio guy.
