Hi,

just wondering if anyone out there has the new GRN Tg's for the above.

There use to be on vhf but i believe to have moved to GRN.

Any assistance would be great.

Blue Mountains, still on VHF Midband.

There has been a number of sites that are licensed to VHF Highband but no activity in my area as yet.

Ditto for the South Coast & Monaro

But very interested in which talkgroups and prefix of radio IDs (eg 123xxxx) they might be using on the GRN though if anyone can confirm?

Allison,

do you know if the mobiles are on VHF MIDBAND (68-88) or HIGHBAND (136-174). I know of several area's where the HIGHBAND repeaters have been added to the system but the mobiles were all still MIDBAND. Curious to know if they have changed over yet.

Southern region of Sydney TX on both 77.525mhz and 163.6125mhz at Mt Keira. Think they were hoping to be in the high band by this fire season but not sure if that will happen now!!

Have heard them on GRN using RFS radios during some of the fires up north. On ESO and GD Ops or what ever the new talkgroup name is now (eGO71 ops)

Hi Col
Not sure what mobiles they are using. I did see a National Parks hilux today with a long stainless steel whip, so I'm guessing still vhf midband.
