Were you able to hear the control channel?
Franklin's system is hard to monitor. Coverage outside of the city is intermittent but in the city I have to use the attenuator.
Almost impossible to monitor in Brentwood but can hear it intermittently in Nolensville.
I almost think they have their antenna arrays set more like cell phones with small discreet coverage areas in contrast with Nashville where you can hear the system pretty relliably over half a county away. (Full scale in Nolensville as is the Airport TRS).

I have monitored other 9600 baud systems and none were as crazy to listen to as Franklin's.
