Hi Techman,

Thanks for the update, it will be good to have someone who can monitor the system in the Cairns area on the forum.

Here is an interesting observation, one sites in Cairns and other SEQ sites there is a call which make to target ID 65536 but has not source id and occurs every 30 minutes almost on the second. Picture attached has incorrect time as I have been scanning around .



Interested to know what this is?

Techman, I had two hits on Friday with that same TG in BNE.

Just having a guess, but it maybe a tech TG. The techs on the MMR have TG's that are 65XXX

65536 is a ID marker on other Motorola networks ie hourly.
It is the last number available

According to a post on RR, it's a BSI - Base Station Identifyer. Can't say I've seen any use of it on the GRN.

Ahh, ok

Thanks techman, interesting with 4710501, I had three hits from it on 28/5 from one of the BNE CBD sites.

I am quite sure the 491XXXX rids are techs, these seem to comply with the national rid allocation numbering system

The first hit on the system seems to points to someone or people catching a late flight from bne. It is also interesting the two sites I have visibility of almost seem to be correctly configured, like someone has now read and understands the 'dummy guide to p25 trunked radio' and now have a working site or two on cns. I will say (based on the data I have seen in unitrunker) there seems to be a lack of consistence and eye to detail on these sites I have seen in cns and bne, there are call sign is in the system on some sites and not others, peers are now correct (it was showing wrong freq for a long time), repeater is in p2 mode (not p1).

Noticed exactly the same things here in the SE early on while monitoring with UT. All sites down here now appear to have peers and correct band plans and in P2 mode. Some sites took several weeks to be correctly setup / configured.
