Oak Lawn Central Update

I admit to not always listening to the burbs, but just heard Oak Lawn Central Fire dispatch on the new narrowband frequency of 155.5575 (CTCSS 91.5) simulcast on their regular frequency of 154.430 (CTCSS 91.5). Heard some testing in the past week as well, so Division 21 listeners may want to keep your ear on this one.

All operations for Oak Lawn Central Fire have been using the new frequency. All operations are utilizing a repeater as well.

Nothing like a crisp repeater sound I say Ron. I did hear Southwest Central also page out a couple times on here, then heard them dispatching Roberts Park on the 154.430 frequency. I suspect anyone dispatched by Oak Lawn Central has converted all operations to the new frequency, while some of the other Division 21 companies still dispatch on the old for now. I'll ask around to see what the plan is.

I'll have to see if I can here from my location, thanks. Good catch.

Glad you like the audio of my system! I thought it sounded pretty good after we aligned it. Still some mobiles that need some work, but the repeater sounds great.

Yes we all seem to. Are all departments converted over now? Who will stay on the old frequency?
