NSW Trip

[Phil]

whilst driving south i was listening to alot of Zone 2 NSWP Channels it seems that the NSW Police are extending there digital network mind you no encryption on any of these channels. man i have never seen so many cops patrolling the highway from Sydney to Newcastle i counted at least 25 and only two north of Newcastle.

nice work Phil...

[blacktown]

The channel numbers you are quoting are Queensland channel numbers
NSW Channel numbers as a rule work off the input frequency but there are far too many "vote groups" variations to quote it as gospel.

eg
458.3500 = Channel 1
458.3625 = Channel 101

Grant

PS The last channel listing that appeared on the internet is at least 3 years old and may be obsolete by now

[Phil]

Grant the wonderful thing about it if you really want the frequency you can have a look on the Queensland Police Frequencies and get it from there as I do not know the channel numbers i am not from NSW as my username would suggest.

I have never heard such a silly idea, as most scanner users don't know how to calculate the Repeater Output Frequency, when given the Input Frequency.

In fact, many users don't even realise that Repeaters use two frequencies.

It is not a silly idea
As a general rule that is how the NSW police techs organise it .... happy to post the rough listing but it some years old and not sure how accurate it pertains to the current ... in a broad sense they are still using it, based on the acma listing for the digital rollout on the north coast.
I have seen the printed version of the NSW Police Digital Zone 1 and 2 codeplug - mind you it was the 2005 or 2006 version
Given the police are still using the December 2006 codeplug as at 2010 (their radio screens were photographed at the Royal Easter Show), it is still likely to be reasonably valid in general terms.
A number of us Sydney folk have worked out from both listening to the early days of digital and from the code plug list how the NSW Police have organised their channels- however there are many variations to that rule, to accomodate various "voting arrangements"
In NSW they use 164 channels on that zone, including "votes", simplex channels, etc
In the 2006 profile Digital Zone 3 was a special ops listing whereas now i hear Zone 3 is being used in the regional areas eg for the Papa and Romeo Channels.


What I find odd is that queensland police channel numbers are being applied to nsw police channels on a nsw police thread
I as a NSW based person with about 8-9 years of listening to NSW Police digital have some idea of how they run their comms
If i started posting nsw police channel information on a Queensland Police post, i have no doubt i would be told not to confuse the issue and not to post incorrect information.
Quite rightly too
But unfortunately here when I have pointed out the problem - ie just publish output frequencies eg 468.1625 rather the (qld) channel numbers all i have met so far is unhelpful comments.

Aussie scanners needs to accomodate other states arrangements, because in my observation it is rather Queensland centric
Every state and every capital city does it their own unique way

Grant

PS Just so you know who I am .... I am cartman from Scan Sydney Forum.

[Phil]

Grant,

firstly i am aware of your username on other forums and it is good that we have another NSW user on the forums. like i said as my name suggests i am from Brisbane and the channel information that i have is only based upon the information that i know which is Queensland. if by using the Queensland Channel numbers you will gain the Frequency so be it as i am not in the possession of a current codeplug nor do i have the ability to listen to the NSWP. i do understand that aussiescanners needs to broaden it horizons and accomodate other states and i feel we have done this the best we can considering we are a Queensland Based group. if you would like to contact me grant i am more then willing to discuss this off forum at my email below.
