P25 Talk Groups part 2

[Bigfella237]

Hi all im I just want to know what TG is this as i seen a RFS radio fash this TG up 19999 - POP - 25
I tryed to find the answer but couldnt
Thanks Nathan

Just my observation but it appears to be a common tech/test talkgroup available to multiple agencies? I've seen a lot of different agency's radio IDs affiliate with that one over the last year or so including ACT agencies.

The alpha tag sort of suggests that it might have something to do with the POP (Post Office Protocol) used by e-mail clients to retrieve e-mail but then again that's just wild speculation on my behalf and more than likely completely incorrect? (Insert your own acronym here!)

thanks Andrew & BerryV
As far as i know and i could be wrong no RFS radio have over the air programing this is what i was told because all our trucks have to be booked in to have the old 4.1 system removed

Thanks Nathan

As far as I'm aware all agency profiles have the OTAP capability in them. It doesn't mean they will be used for whole fleet upgrades- it takes about 20 minutes of air time PER RADIO to load a large profile. What it is for is upgrading one off radios when it is quicker & easier to do this rather than traveling.

Cheers,

I agree with richard, all digital radios should have them in there(usually the last channel/zone programmed into the radio )

The RFS have it in Zone 8, channel 31. This channel will display the version number of the codeplug your radio is programmed with

20026 - RFS GD90 THE LKS <-- was hearing this off Chullora today is that normal?

11076 - Sutherland Council <-- was referring to Street/Road Sweepers, if that helps in more info for this agency.

11074 is some sort of machinery Repair and Maintenance channel
11076 is the Rangers (Sutherland __, Dog Catcher, Animal Shelter + possibly Sutherland Police Traffic (occasional reference to "Sutherland 300")
11077 is the back channel to 11076
11078 is the Waste Service, Recycling, Tar Crew, Streetsweeper (Scrubber) + Mobile town crew + mobile mechanic

Been listening to Sutho Council this morning and they are having radio problems in the lower areas of The Shire. Lots of dead spots. Hopefully when Cronulla P25 fires up it will fill the holes.

Mike,

Which areas? I would have thought Miranda & Heathcote would cover them fairly well even without Cronulla.

Cheers,
