County-wide Dispatch System
All Hendricks County public safety agencies use Indiana Project Hoosier SAFE-T (Motorola) for dispatch and tactical communications. All dispatching is handled by the Hendricks County Communications Center located in Plainfield. There are four SAFE-T sites in Hendricks County (Plainfield, northwest of Danville, Clayton, and Brownsburg). They are operated as a simulcast system in that all towers use the same frequencies and handle the same traffic.
| Site | Name | Freqs | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 30761-029 (7829-1D) | Hendricks County Simulcast | 851.150000 | 852.137500 | 852.387500 | 852.537500 | 853.400000 | 853.412500a | 853.887500c | 855.712500 |
Talkaround/Fireground
In addition to the Project SAFE-T talkgroups, Hendricks County Fire radios are programmed with 853.0125 MHz FM simplex PL 156.7 Hz as a talkaround channel. This channel is often used as a Fireground channel where SAFE-T repeater coverage is poor.
County Law Enforcement Numbering
All law enforcement units in the county use a common unit numbering system consisting of a city or agency designation, then a type designation, then an individual unit number.
