System Details:

The Cary system is a Motorola APCO P25 Digital multi-site, simulcast system, Presently Phase I.

Cary migrated to a Motorola APCO P25 Phase I system in November 2014.  There are three simulcast sites and one communications tower at Town Campus with Microwave backhaul and Fiber with controller and interoperability control stations.  Coverage is 18 miles out from the center of the Town.  South Coverage is out further than North due to the Apex site with wide coverage that gives you extra 10 miles out covering all of Southern Wake County.  Antenna tower shading in the Southwest.  Cary PD is Encrypted and we do not post any Cary PD Talk groups.
 
Site 1:  PRIME Site; The North Tower is at Old Reedy Creek Road behind the Town of Cary North Water Reclamation  Facility.  South west side of tower, Omni antenna pattern.  Tower is visible from I-40 near Harrison Avenue.  269 feet AGL.  This is a co-existing antenna site with Wake County were they are using the Cary System Core for their new P25 radio system since October 2021.    Coverage is 18 miles out.


Site 2:  The Apex-South tower site is located at the 1575 foot Clear Channel tower site off 1010   Road east of Apex. The Transmit antenna is at 1270 Feet on the North leg. The receive antenna is at 1190 feet.  (Wide Coverage site).     Coverage is 28 Miles out.


Site 3:  The RTP Wake County tower site co-existing with the Wake County Radio System located on Highway 55 just north of I-540 Toll Road, Kit Creek area.  West side of tower with omni antenna pattern.  This antenna tower site is also co-located with the P25 Wake County system.     Coverage is 15 Miles out.

Backup Conventional Tower backup repeaters are located at Ten-Ten and Apex Peakway Northeast of Apex on a 500 foot tower.  The receive is on the North leg at 480 ft. Transmit is on top @ 500 ft.  Second backup is proposed for North Tower and converting both backup sites to TDMA Digital on conventional mode. 

The Emergency Backup for Cary in Conventional Analog/Mix mode is:

856.0625  PL 192.8 hz  Fire Dept. backup repeater and Alert Station backup/Simulcast select.

854.5625  PL 192.8 hz  Cary PD backup repeater

854.0875  PL 192.8 hz  North Tower-repeater Located at the Waste Water Treatment Plant on Reedy                                         Creek Road.

These will become Conventional P25 Digital-TDMA systems in the future doubling the TG Channels per repeater.


154.2350  PL  110.9 hz VHF Transmitter/Repeater located at 316 N. Academy St. at Town Campus, Repeater could be used for simulcast select on dispatch for voice paging and two-way.  This has not been activated for Paging as of this date.  This Tower site has Microwave backhaul for Cary P25 System Site Controller and other Backup intersystem equipment.   This location is also the Main 911 Public Safety Access Point.   Backup 911 is at Fire Station 6 and plans are to incorporate Fire Station 9 to a Backup and EOC.

NPSPAC repeater also at North tower TBA later on repeater frequency.

The National Public Safety Channels are used also. These are used for on scene communications and local communications were repeaters are on the air.  These 800 Mhz conventional systems use a CTCSS of 156.7 hz.  Originally assigned by the FCC to use as mutual aid between different agencies anywhere by any eligible 800 mhz Public Safety agency.  These were named the NPS or NPSPAC Channels back in the late 1980's.  Most recently they have been given the acronym 8CALL and 8TAC Channels (Interoperability Tactical Channels). Some agencies have adopted the standard names below on these channels.  All five frequencies have 5 repeater pairs and 5 talkaround/simplex channels.
