Can anybody tell me what's happening with RACOM? In my area, (extreme NW Iowa) we used to have a tower in Worthington, MN that covered us. That went off the air years ago, and everybody switched to Sioux Center (IA). I have now verified that that signal is also off the air.
A little further out into MN and SD, the former RACOM/East River Electric towers seem to have switched to DMR. The RACOM and East River systems seemed to be connected several years ago.
I haven't heard an EDACS control channel in so long, I had to look up what it sounded like to do a search. I heard none. But I did hear four DMR control channels from the outlying area.
Is RACOM still a going concern elsewhere? Because here it appears to be dead. I heard they were switching to P25, but I have yet to see any evidence of that up in my corner of the state. I also cannot find a current coverage map. That might tell me something too if I could find it.
Can anybody offer any info?
