Scan New England

I think what is going on here is some folks thinks COMIRS is just the P25 sites and not the Analog. COMIRS should refer to the whole system and Groton is right in the middle of where Site 5 ends and site 8 picks up. My guess is you should be able to hear site 8 from Wachusett or Harvard. You may get...

I think he just means that some of these two way companies like Industrial also have a lot of cellular install work to do as well with 5G going on at the same time.

That's it no one is going?? This is not optional?

That's it no one is going??

The Plymouth incident is on D-PTL-1 and is a search after a foot chase. SOPS 3 is a concert at Gillette Stadium. https://www.gillettestadium.com/event/k ... dium-tour/? Not sure what is on LPS-2 and the others yet.

Lots of SOPS and one LPS talkgroups in play tonight. Anyone listening?

Alright I think it's time to find out which Scan-NE users are going and where folks are staying etc. What channels you will be on etc. etc. Maybe we need to come up for plans for an outing near our hotels if any of you are staying over in the area? Lots of possibilities lets start planning. Who is c...

Yes

Well I found out that the official hotel is full. I'm in the unofficial hotel and will be looking for a new bar I think.

Why he is using a Regency Monitoradio 8 like most of us. What are you using Mr. Fancy pants Scanner Master kid? You probably get all the crystals you want!

To blow you that far that really is quite some storm!

Yes they are back. Thanks all.

Thank you! And I can see that my Cape Cod units received their test fine. Alert Received at 08/30/23 11:00:55 on monitor #3 Matched Filter RWT The National Weather Service has issued a Required Weekly Test for Dukes, MA, Nantucket, MA, Barnstable, MA, Plymouth, MA, and Bristol, MA beginning at 11:00...

I don’t think Paxton National Weather Service/NOAA weather is working? I just noticed WSRS and WTAG missed the weekly Required test and listening to their receivers I’m just getting a hum. Can anyone to the west verify that the 162.550 transmitter has no audio? It is not currently listed as down. ht...

XTS's are too old to do phase 2

Western MA is currently FDMA only just Phase 1. The 700 Overlay, Massport, Cambridge and Worcester are new enough that they adjust by the radios affiliated. If a talkgroup is all Phase 2 type radios the talkgroup will go Phase 2. If a Phase 1 radio joins it will revert back to phase 1. However as me...

From the tv news it sounds like Boston had similar episodes at South Bay Plaza and then later at Downtown Crossing.

Very good time and very good weather! Great to see you Jeff and Bill! It was also great to meet several more Scan.NE.net users up close and personal. Great group here thank you all for being such great members of this site and keeping us all up to date. John K1BOS Super Idiot

Tim has decided not to bring his trunk.

Alright it's going to rain tomorrow but we can all watch the Patriots game at the bar and talk on P25 all day! Still not a bad day. Be there or be square!

Weather is starting to look a little bit better for Saturday. I'll be there all three days either way. I already have a table spot but your neighbors will always help you watch your table. You can probably set up near us or folks you know. The GEMOTO 900 Repeater will be on site all three days. W1NA...

Today I overheard Troopers trying to figure out what several Taunton police units had. One mentioned to another we don't get them anymore. The other trooper said they are now encrypted. First time I have heard discussions by public safety about it. It was interesting.
