Quick! See if the went to some type of failsoft -- that is, operating their trunked frequencies in conventional mode!
Mobiles are attempting to contact dispatchers...sounds like the consoles crashed.
So the system is still trunking but the dispatchers are off line?
I've been listening on Site 1-002 for the past 5 minutes and still no traffic. There was a TG that came up as a quick blip real fast but it went away before I could see what it was.
I was scanning Site 102 for about half an hour and wondered why radio traffic was very low. I heard 1J40 trying to reach ISP dispatch for almost 10 minutes without a response. Same thing with some of the Metra PD units...

ISP Dist 15 is fine... nice and clear on my SDS100
ISP Dist 15 units calling and being dispatched with no issues.
Dist 15 always has a latest and greatest. Only self funded agency.
