I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what all the Corrective Services Home Visit callsigns are and where they're from? So far I've heard:
VG = ??
VK = ??
NC = Newcastle?
WG = Wollongong?
DB = Dubbo?
I was thinking that maybe the V series callsigns might go by the NSWPF channel areas (as in channel Golf, channel Kilo etc.), maybe?

I think VK is BK which is Blacktown, the location of their head office.

It is purely guess work that it is BK. However on their analogue TG, I heard BK base call BK9 and ask their location. BK9's reply was Marayong with an eta back to the office of about 10 minutes. Based on that I concluded it was Blacktown. Also I could not come up with a suburb for VK.
I will of course be open to suggestion and change.

Re: Corrective Services Home Visits
I was just looking at the Corrective Services website, some interesting info on there but nothing that would seem to help us here?
One thing I read was in relation to visiting inmates (or "residents" as they call them): "Notification of intention to visit is requested by telephoning ~ 24 hours prior to ensure the resident’s availability."
Where else are they likely to be if you were to pop in unannounced?
