This page provides a general overview of coverage provided by the GRN
As already discussed, the NSW GRN covers over one-third of the state of NSW. This equates to a geographic area of some 265,000 square kilometres, making the NSW GRN one of the largest trunked radio networks in the world.
The Network extends to:
| North Coast: | Forster/Tuncurry |
| New England: | New England Highway to Tamworth, the Castlereagh Highway |
| North West: | Mitchell and Barrier Highways to Lightning Ridge and Bourke |
| West: | Cobar, Lake Cargellico and along the Newell to West Wyalong |
| South West: | Along the Hume and Federal Highways to and including Yass and the ACT |
| South: | Nowra (soon to Eden, Cooma to Eden, and the Kings Highway) |
