I like the way you think.

However fire are only using analouge on the new radios even though they are p25 capable.

Thinking some more about this driving to work, Is the operations channels that sit in the Mobile TX sector actually polling the police portable trunk network?  ESC BAND in discussion here.

I see Fire police comms are presenting on the police portable trunk channel.. Its a bigger 6 channel site that carries almost all the police channels so I wonder if its located close to Auckland CBD?

My system close to home is a 4 channel and carries 2 talk groups (mainly) which makes me wonder if like days of old are North and West main channels?  Fire Police don't appear on my home site or haven't yet??

Australia has a state wide system  P25 system that carries Police, Fire and Ambos . Police of course are encrypted.  I am hoping New Zealand follows that path as it becomes a great challenge to map the system out.

Hi all,

I'm a bit confused as well.!

On the RSM website the frequencies assigned to Fire and Emergency New Zealand between 492.21875MHz and 497.19375MHz are shown as "Land Mobile - mobile transmit" and the repeater frequencies don't start until 498.800MHz. So how are the lower frequencies being used as "portable frequencies" for incident ground communications?

Cheers.
