Anyone know why KCPD is passing so much traffic to KCFD on 30281 Public Safety Dispatch?
A Joint Operation probably.
Overflow comms for the Chiefs watch party in the P&L district, just a guess.

Switchover started yesterday, 2/12/25, per their Facebook post.
They something about their phone system was down.
Johnson County, MO/Warrensburg is getting closer to "going live", according to one of my FD contacts. Their shop gave an original estimated time frame of completion for February or March. They're wrapping up training, and the new estimation is late April or early May. My contact said there wouldn't be much, if any, encryption on the fire side. He doesn't know what law enforcement plans to do.

According to the Facebook post a few weeks ago by Johnson County central dispatch, the switch to MARRS has already happened.
Yeah, I saw that. Fire District #2 out towards Holden and Kingsville are still rocking their older radios, according to my contact. Maybe a slow rollout thing...who knows?
They switched over on 25 Mar according to their Facebook page. Everything except fire and ems is encrypted. I've only found 3 unencrypted TGIDs. Also, everything in Pettis is supposed to be DMR but I haven't been able to pick up anything.
