Since the ad specifically mentions Motorola, I suspect you are correct that it will indeed be TRBO. Lots of works departments, hydro companies etc in my are now use TRBO as well.

Nothing wrong with TRBO, at least it isn't hard to decode using DSD or getting a TRBO radio.

....assuming they don't click that pesky 'privacy' button in the CPS.

Okay I listened on all their current listed frequencies, just did a search of 460.225-460.550 all I hear is the digital Trbo mode, as in-

I also checked the dbase for those freqs if I was picking up another, but even on a rubber duc from bay county was able to get the same and any other users were several counties away.

Afraid to say, we lost another one!
