Yes, I heard a lot of radio checks and some chatter on the Cheaha (453.400MHz no tone noted) repeater a few days ago for several days just before our "big" snow event here in Alabama.
Unfortunately, MFD is 100% ProVoice digital. All we can get regularly are the station alerting tones which are still analog. Though from time to time, I hear a dispatcher dispatch MFD units in analog mode.
