the question is, it on the air or just a proposal?
Well if they’ve got a license and frequencies assigned to them, plus a slew of info on the ESVA 911 website about it, it’s definitely happening

My interpretation of the question was whether the OP can program in the frequencies and expect to pick up at least a control channel today, or is that something that will happen in the future?

A 700 system has been licensed/granted, any incite to buildout?
since i travel RT 13 to VB try to keep up with future changes
Thanks. I have staged the system in the database pending activation. Looks like there are 7 base frequencies licensed at this time, but the license shows the type/modulation as P25 Phase 1 C4FM only with sites across Accomack and Northampton Counties, plus Chincoteague. I'm assuming it will be a simulcast system at this point. Here are the frequencies to monitor for activity:
770.83125771.09375771.34375772.49375773.44375773.69375774.4062

Lots of info inside the second link I posted. They just got the FCC license at the end of May

The Eastern Shore of Virginia's new regional radio system is scheduled to have site equipment installations begin in the second quarter of 2024, coverage testing in the 3rd quarter and hope to cutover to the new system sometime in the 1st quarter of 2025.

Yes, my understanding is that all law enforcement talk groups will have AES256 encryption. However, have not seen that in writing anywhere.
If you look at post 3 in this thread, and go the ESVA 911 website, they had a document on their that said AES was going to be on all LE channels
