SDFD Dispatch?
SDFD Dispatch?
Is it just me...or has TG 5008 gone dark. No dispatches heard over the past two hours, but plenty of responses noted on the command and tac channels. Have they changed TG IDs?
SDFD Dispatch - Never Mind
Never mind...just as I posted, a dispatch came through
You're still correct. 5008 is partially dark. The FD is doing some type of wierd patching. If you have an older trunk tracking scanner OR if you have a newer Uniden and you have STATUS BIT=OFF then it will not track the status bits correctly.
So far, you need to have 5008, 5011, 5015, 4695 in your scanlist to catch all of the FD dispatches for older TT'ers.
Full explanation of status bits (e.g. patches) can be found on the listing page of ScanDiego.com under /\/\otorola Status Bits

SDFD DISPATCH
Hey Sean:
I've got a new Pro-96 and haven't ever had any status bit issues. For example, it always picks up SO LG or Imp Beach dispatch. Any idead on what's going on?

Re: SDFD DISPATCH
That radio probably automatically sets the status bits by default, and maybe you can't even turn it off. I don't know why anyone would want to turn it off..codethree wrote:Hey Sean:

Interesting. I'll have to add that to my scanlist on the scanners. TKSMikey wrote:4688 is currently active with FD Dispatch ... Both the 296 and 246T have the Status Bit turned on but aren't receiving dispatch on 5008.
I could have sworn I heard dispatched on FD Admin (5168) earlier in the week as well.

SDFD DISPATCH
Well, I programmed in all the patched talkgroups and got dispatch back. I'm just puzzled since the Pro-96 doesn't allow you to turn status bit off and I just began having problems, although the patches have been in place for some time
