Status on the Nebraska SRS:
All NSP/NPPD/NEMA districts are currently online full-time and using the SRS.
Nebraska Dept of Roads, Corrections and Game/Parks: Radios have been purchased and installation is currently in progress. New talkgroups and testing has been reported in the NSP Troop C area.
Programming the system
Monitoring NWIN is easy, and even fun to listen to. Occasionally you may hear other NSP/NPPD radios affiliate to your favorite tower from different troop/service areas, bringing traffic from those areas!
To program this system into your scanner you will need a scanner that will do P25 trunking system, 9600 baud control channel.
- Uniden BC396XT, BC996XT, Radio Shack Pro 106 and 197 and GRE PSR 500 and PSR 600 scanners program the system as a P25 trunking system. Then program the control channels into your scanner.
- Uniden 996T and 396T program the system as a Motorola type 2/P25. Under the site select APCO25. Then program the control channel, no band plan needed.
- Uniden 296, 796 and RadioShack Pro96, you will need to program the scanner as a Motorola VHF trunking system. Program the frequencies and you will need a bandplan.
Set your scanner for no delay on the system as NSP jumps from talk group to talk group.
