Wollongong ambos on GRN??

Post by Mike Alpha » Thu Aug 13, 2009 11:09 am

I'm hearing Wollongong (Southern Ops) ambos on GRN talkgroup 44448 off Heathcote. It is patched to their PMR channels.

Anyone know if they are finally switching to 100% GRN?

Hi all, yeah when ive been in that area no one was using the GRN. On the old system the only id i noticed was 741217. That was about 8-9 months ago.

See my post in the GRN section... they had a technical "issue" that they have to resolve before they can cut-over to the GRN. The fault isn't related to GRN, more of a console issue. I'm told that once that is resolved they are ready to move across.
Their Centracoms have been moved across to P25 in readiness but they are using Omnitronics consoles for the PMR.

Cheers,


Richard
