Does anyone know what type of radio system is transmitting on 936.2625 in Phoenix area? I made a wideband I/Q recording from just north of the airport last Friday and am attempting to decode but it's not DMR or P25-1/2. There's a couple other channels in this same band that appear visually similar.

This seems to be the FCC license: FCC Callsign WPJG930 (INTEL CORPORATION) for the Intel plant in Chandler. The license lists a 13.6 kHz emission designator which matches analog FM voice, but doesn't seem to match known digital protocols.

It's a digitally modulated signal, possibly a 4FSK variant. The transmitted bandwidth is approximately 16 kHz as visually measured in sdrtrunk.

I tried from here in Maricopa and nothing, but just a hair up is 936.275 (Motorola AirTime Solutions on South Mtn)
and I'm getting DMR on it. Wideband may have been throwing it off?

Wideband (10 MHz) was the recording. When I replay in sdrtrunk it uses a standard channel and filter.

They encrypted their DMR system years ago, which likely explains why it is seen as DMR but does not decode.

Is that constant, like a control channel? I don't know what you are receiving, but I do not see activity on 936.2625 from Chandler.

It was a continuous, control channel-like signal. I only got to record it for a short period north of the airport, the night before catching a flight home.
