I wonder if the portable actually worked on the police network or was it just a stolen one that they had zapped making it inoperable? I know there is a pretty good system in place where by all equipment is checked regularly and anything missing is jumped on fairly quickly. I'd say they would of had ...

Good work Andrew. Yep they are obviously getting those coverage issues for nswpf sorted. A number of those new sites will fill the coverage issues nicely. Oh and fyi LHI is not linked to vkg or any channel. It's been encrypted for years. But as it's only a one man station i wouldn't have thought it ...

Just came across this on the nsw telco website. Interesting reading especially the part where nsw police assistant commissioner Stewart indicates nsw police will trial the grn in the north of the state after the north coast upgrade? Atleast thats how it reads to me. http://www.telco.nsw.gov.au/sites...

Yep can confirm Echo has been disbanded. Burwood Pac( old burwood and ashfield lac) moved to Foxtrot and Inner west (newtown and Marrickville) moved to channel 4.

But when Burwood and Ashfield merged to be burwood Pac and Marrickville and newtown became inner west Pac,There was a bit of channel jug...

Mike. I have no idea, I think at this stage its just to upgrade the entire communications network so its the same state wide. Then one day, probably years and years away, they will switch to the Grn. But the cops like having there own network so I guess they will try and hold off as long as they can.

Exactly what cartman said. No chance of getting anything except if you are lucky to pick something up through a gap in the blue mountains from lithgow or oberon. 1st of July this year is when the change over is going to start for the 3 channel's Q,Y and Z. It will b a 18 month program to change from...

I think the police sites at eugowra and mt coonambro on the grn are a mistake, im thinking they put the new licence on the wrong site, theres 2 sites at mt coonambro, 1 grn and the other is the police site. Police Sites at cobar, walget, naromine and needle mountain came up on the 5th all with the s...
