You mean that 155.5950 MHz is completely dead?

Jackson Co is in the planning stages for replacement, in the next few years they will either move to MPSCS or implement a county-wide analog system (likely based on Ingham Co's success.)

Well, I dont know about dead, and granted I havent had alot of time to listen, but since Sat. I havent heard anything. Obviously this was a pretty busy channel and so something happened.

They just dispatched a call on 154.7250 MHz. Apparently, they are using this as their dispatch frequency for right now? Maybe 155.5950 MHz is down for maintenance?

I have been listening to 154.7250 MHz, for the last two hours and all of their dispatch activity has been on this frequency. In fact, they just dispatched a PI down in Pulaski Twp. That being said, I don't know if this is a permanent move or a temporary one, due to equipment issues on 155.5950 MHz?

From what I hear it might be the result of a lightning strike.

Heard them most of the evening driving around the county doing the radio testing, they were finding some dead spots.

Fire Dispatch sounds really horrible over here where I live. I wonder if they have gone narrowband or their transmitter is out of alignment? When the base transmits, it sounds like they have a towel over the microphone, with a lot of deviation.

Just listening to Summit Twp. FD out on a call, it sounds like they are simulcasting off more than one tower at a time. I am hearing one repeater drop before the other. Sounds like they may have made some modifications to their transmitters?

Must have been it - I was in the newsroom yesterday wondering what agency was transmitting because it sounded like Jackson Co but was coming in too clear to be ;>

jackson County Fire sounds horrible in A2. You can actually hear the heterodyne beats once in a while. Yes they do sound like they're transmitting on 2 towers at the same time like St. Clair County FD is.
