~ A bit of google searching last night brought up a site with the SES digital channels - http://nswgrn.com/nsw-ses.htm. ~

Yeah, an interesting website that one, obviously most of the info comes from this forum?

OK, own up whoever you are?

BTW, I can say with a reasonable degree of certainty that there's something screwy with the SES alpha tags on that website due to the fact that you can only have a maximum "Channel Text Size" of 12 characters on an XTS5000 and quite a few of them listed are 13 characters?

That looks like the same crowd that did the "NSW Emergency Services" website and forum
It is exactly the same layout and print type as before
The guy's admin name on that forum was "Mark", who I think identified himself under another name on this forum (if you recall the robust exchange after I exposed the shady company selling P25 services on a website some months ago)

As I recall, that website was closed down after the main guy passed away (if I'm thinking of the same site)?

Andrew

P.S. Love the domain name, it's a wonder the GCIO didn't register and park that one so no one could use it?

yep fully agree, someone has at a guess sent him dodgy alpha tags to see if he put it online i'm guessing

[Wonky]

How do we know the alpha tags listed are dodgy - is there another list to compare them to?

[Scotty]

I can confirm a couple of SES 'tags' that were read out over the radio during the floods out west as: '128-CW-TAC2', '129-CW-TAC3' and '133-CWSTRAT'. On that site they seem to be listed with an extra dash between the first and second number. Maybe a different zone in the radio (as some are '1' others are '3') or a different profile for different areas (unlikely)?

I was working nightshift so i missed a fair bit of this re Boxing Day / Sydney to Hobart Yacht race start

10951 = "Sydney Region" + Access Enquiries
10952 = Unid
10953 = Unid
10954 = Harbour Cleaning (ES callsigns)

10956 = Special talkgroup Bravo
10957 = Unid
10958 = Unid

Where i haven't identified the use of the talkgroup I have just inserted "unid" (unidentified)
