Re: VICTORIAN CFA P25 TALKGROUPS
Thanks Grant, very interesting.
Also interesting is the site rollout map on RR, looks like they will have almost all of the central tablelands covered, being about a third of the state, although I'm a little surprised they didn't fill in the Hume Hwy up through Benalla and Wangaratta to Wodonga?
I wonder if this will stay a separate system to the MMR or if they will eventually be both rolled into a state-wide system like the other states?

Re: VICTORIAN CFA P25 TALKGROUPS
Also some info here at VicRadioZone (whom is a member of this forum). Will be interesting if they link the systems as RMR is VHF high band and MMR is UHF. Would need APX or dual band radios to cover both systems along with quite a large codeplug!

Re: VICTORIAN CFA P25 TALKGROUPS
They certainly have them running as 'one' system. The WACN for the RMR is the same as the MMR 0164h. The first time I monitored one of the RMR sites with Unitrunker the site popped straight as a new site under the MMR system.
MMR sites are 001-XXX and 002-XXX
RMR sites are 003-XXX and 004-XXX
MMR sites are 001-XXX and 002-XXX

VicRadio Zone tweeted on May 27 2014 that 193 Network Sites are now complete. The majority of them are listed on the bottom link.

Interesting mention of the Australian Volunteer Coast Guard as one of the users, no mention of any particular talkgroup id however.

Hi Gents,
Coastguard is a user simply because they and the CFA entered in to a MOU in regards to Marine Response a few years ago. They subsequently started using the existing CFA Radio system for marine calls also requiring a CFA response. They're also on the EAS Pager Network utilised by SES, MFB, CFA, etc.
From the CFA Wiki;
"Coast Guard Brigades
In 2005 the CFA signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Australian Volunteer Coast Guard to create CFA Coast Guard brigades.[9] All Victorian Coast Guard Vessels will have CFA Radios installed, EAS (Emergency Alerting System) pagers as used by the CFA as well as basic firefighting tools including a small pump and hoses.[10] Additionally all Coast Guard members are to receive basic CFA firefighting training and some land brigades will receive marine firefighting training."
MMR Sites are classed as Zone 1 and Zone 2 as part of the wider radio system network, hence its SiD's as indicated above, with RMR Sites classed as Zones 3 & 4 and as such it's SiD's. Not to be confused with Radio Zones that form part of the code plugs.
Also in regards to RMR, apparently the amount / type of gear required at the site / hub will determine what its Network Zone will be.
Which has been an absolute pain in figuring out a locations SiD when also looking at how technical Telstra and the CFA went in figuring out what site gets what SiD. They pretty much listed all the site alphabetically and then went #01, #02, #03, etc. With '#' denoting the Radio Network Zone.
