Noticed for the second day running that Oscar (Mid North Coast) and Papa (Northern Rivers) are currently patched together during the daytime but split for the overnight shift. Obviously because of daytime staffing issues.

can you decode the NAC of the P25 stuff?
cheers

From low down at Port Macquarie today (using the GRECOM PSR800) I can only pick up and decode 468.0125 DIGITAL Mt Yarraphinni and 468.3875 DIGITAL Bowra Sugarloaf.

NAC 61F - All patched in P25 via RID 1

[matthewn1983]

interesting, the south region is using 61F as well, the hunter/newc uses 526

[Bigfella237]

But aren't the Hunter & Newcastle using Zone 2?

Everything we've seen so far in Z3 has been 61F

I am currently in Port Macquarie
I was too late for the triatholon arrangements (P25 has been reported in the past) but have noticed the local 468.725 channel is currently switched off
468.7250 is located at Mt Cairncross 25km out to the west
468.0750 also at Mt Caincross and the vhf vote on 78Mhz are still operating
No obvious digital beyond what i have reported previously from the far north (ie north of Kempsey)
There are numerous digital frequencies listed locally (see earlier in thread) for last couple of years but no activity at moment
