Identifying a Rebanded System

[WuLabsWuTecH]

Question: It used to be that if a system was rebanded, it was noted somewhere on the database page. Is this still the case? Because I don't see any systems that now have that rebanding warning. And if not, how do I tell if a system has been rebanded or not?

Thanks!

If a system has rebanded, and it's not a P25 type (where the control channel has all the needed data, and you don't need any custom tables), then yes it still is flagged.

Here's an example of a rebanded system, and the warning that gets generated, because it's an analog system...

Carroll County Public Safety Trunking System, Westminster, Maryland - Scanner Frequencies

What system(s) in what state would you think requires this warning? Mike

Thanks for the answer!

To answer your question, none at the moment. I had thought that our system here in the county was going to be rebanded this past month, but I was just informed that they got an extension for it. They had collected our radios and issued us backups about a month ago, so I had figured that it was done, but I guess they hit a snag. Thanks!

The only systems marked in the DB as rebanded are Motorola Systems. They are the only systems that are rebanded, no other type of systems are affected by a change in the LCN lineup (which is what the reband flag is for). Other systems can have the frequencies change due to spectrum reorganization, but that is not rebanding.
