==NJ Transit Police==
The NJ Transit Police Operate on the NJICS 700mhz system and several VHF channels (on a backup basis only). Prior to this they operated on the old Motorola Type-2i System in the southern area of NJ and the VHF channels in the northern area of the state. The type 2i that resided in the north was a backup in case of VHF issues.
The State is split into several districts:
- 1 through 4 cover North Jersey and the Coast Line (North Patrol Talkgroup).
- 5 through 7 Cover South Jersey & River Line (South Patrol Talkgroup).
Police Units are identified by District number, followed by a letter & Number:
For Example 2-Bravo-1 would be a unit in District 2.
ESU units typically operate on Special Ops 2.
The main VHF channel (1 Statewide), is simulcasted through out North Jersey and the audio is often very poor. When there were VHF issues, all operations moved to the trunk system. Since the move to NJICS, operations on the VHF channels have ceased.
As of 2019 Police radios have moved to full time encryption
==NJ Transit Operations==
As of Late 2013, NJ Transit Operations have moved to a Tetra Trunk System. There is no scanner than can monitor this system, however it may be possible with an open source decoder called osmo-tetra. See the Trunked Radio Decoders article for more.
The Tetra System has the following users:
- Hudson Bergen Light Rail
- Newark Light Rail
- Riverline Light Rail
- Bus Operations Field Supervisors
- Contractor Buses (Coach, Academy, Transdev, Transbridge)
- Paratransit (Transcend - Hudson Co)
- NJT Police (3rd party security)
