Matt,

Currently linked via "Smartbridge" PMR-GRN interface actually located at Boorowa (900MHz link between them). I have plans to upgrade that...

Cheers,

i wasnt expecting them to patch to the newcastle channels

[ivahri]

From what I've been told at Newcastle there will normally be at least 2 radio operators on- one to handle "North", the other to handle "West". How that pans out patching wise I have no idea but I would imagine that they would try & share the load between the 2 ops. Pure supposition on my part...

I did notice that Newcastle had 10116 on and off today,, as I said previously its normally 10112/10114 that operates

[ivahri]

From the top of my head 10116 is 205 HUNT 1- my guess is that they were testing in preparation for stations like Muswellbrook moving to that talkgroup tomorrow. I'm sure that will normally be patched to 10112 & 10114.

[Garry]

yes they are normally patched,, sounds like tomorrow could be an interesting day,, not much new happens in Newcastle lol

[Garry]

today, Newcastle Comms/FireComm/Newcastle Firecomm are calling themselves Newcastle Fire Command,,,, I wish they would make up their minds lol

[ivahri]

You try dealing with 4 different shifts of operators...
