Mi5 Network Sites / Talkgroups
All users on the Mi5 System are required to subscribe to our users list. This is a low traffic list with announcements that effect the use of the system. Please send a blank email to mi5-users+subscribe@googlegroups.com or visit https://groups.google.com/d/forum/mi5-users
Here are talkgroups that are in-use on our repeaters. Please see the table towards the bottom to show what talkgroups are on which site. Mi5-STATEW2 is the primary use talkgroup here on our network. Event Talkgroups are only to be used with permission from a director/owner of the network. If you are going to use the DMR-MARC WW/NA talkgroups you are required to have STATEW1/EVENT-1/EVENT-3 talkgroups in your receive group list as well. We have issues with users ignoring the fact that events/nets are in progress and keyup right over them. Our network priority is local statewide public service. WW/NA is only to be used when the slot is free from other uses.

Mi5 Talkgroup Matrix / Bridge Setup
Take note of which master each sites is connected to so as to know what talkgroups are active and how they are active on each site. OFF/PTT ON Means the talkgroup is normally off unless PTTed and then activated for 30minutes. FULL EAST SITES ONLY means that that talkgoup is active all the time but taffic only goes to eastern sites separate from western sites as the same talkgroup used on western sites is contained inside western sites.
