Stations that have been copied from my location in Marstons Mills, MA. have a "Yes" under the "Monitored by Me" column. An "R" immediately following the frequency indicates a repeater is in use. Contributors have been acknowledged in the "Remarks" column...thanks for the input!

'''NEW! The State of Rhode Island is bring a statewide 800 MHz trunked radio system online. It is being built and tested. It is currently being used by the Narragansett, RI Police and Fire Departments. Check [http://www.scancapecod.us/messageboard/showthread.php?t=4386 this thread] at the message forums for continuing information as the system develops.'''
+
==='''Regarding NAC Codes'''===
 +
*NAC's act like PL or DPL, but for P25 digital, to put it simply. The GRE PSR-500, PSR-600, Uniden BCD396XT and BCD996XT are all capable of displaying NACS as well as using them to squelch unwanted signals.
 +
*The default NAC in Motorola's software is 293; many agencies simply leave this as it is. However, many don't.
 +
*There is also a "wildcard" that can be programmed to receive all NAC's on the frequency; it is F7E and should be an option in the available software for the PSR-500/600. It certainly is for Motorola radios. Programming it should also eliminate the reception of any analog traffic on the frequency.  
 +
*Setting your PSR-500/600's squelch type to "Search" should however provide you with a very quick decode of the NAC when the station in question transmits.
 +

Word from a reliable source is that Otis ANGB will turn on P25 encryption sometime in the very near future. I have already heard occasional encryption. Update 1/3/06: The vast majority of comms remain in the clear. Exceptions are indicated on the list.

Overview

  • Website's Main Page
  • An "R" immediately following the frequency indicates a repeater is in use.
  • "Conv" means the transmissions are conventional, ie. not trunked.
  • "Alpha Tag" allows for the import of a prepared alpha tag when the table is imported using the EZ-Grab feature of Freescan Software or similar features from other programming software.
  • Adding info to the APCO-25 page - Instructions
  • Submit Data for SNE Wiki
  • Scanners that are capable of receiving APCO-25 are listed here
  • As P25 has been around for sometime now, this page will begin to be whittled down to contain agency information not already found in the Regional/County pages

Regarding NAC Codes

  • NAC's act like PL or DPL, but for P25 digital, to put it simply. The GRE PSR-500, PSR-600, Uniden BCD396XT and BCD996XT are all capable of displaying NACS as well as using them to squelch unwanted signals.
  • The default NAC in Motorola's software is 293; many agencies simply leave this as it is. However, many don't.
  • There is also a "wildcard" that can be programmed to receive all NAC's on the frequency; it is F7E and should be an option in the available software for the PSR-500/600. It certainly is for Motorola radios. Programming it should also eliminate the reception of any analog traffic on the frequency.
  • Setting your PSR-500/600's squelch type to "Search" should however provide you with a very quick decode of the NAC when the station in question transmits.
