I noticed this weekend that McPherson County TRS had gone quiet. Since the weather was WAY TOO NICE, I was not allowed to "play" indoors this weekend. (my wife had far too many "HoneyDo's" in mind involving woodpiles, garage floors, and garden sheds with leaky roofs....)
Now I notice the database shows the system has moved from 866-868 down to 851-853. Plugged in the new frequencies and lo and behold there they are again....
Now, the question begs, is this the beginnings of "rebanding" in Kansas? EDACS systems are easy to reband on almost all scanners. Just enter the new LCNs and away you go. Motorola seems like it is going to be more of a bear (or Bison if you want to keep to the Sunflower State theme...) Has anyone heard anything about some of the other systems to be rebanded? (looking fearfullly over my shoulder towards Wichita and KCICS) Both of these systems will eventually be rebanded down it appears.
I've been reading the threads on the other forums about rebanding in other areas and the various workarounds needed for some of scanners. My main scanners right now are the Pro-96 for portable and Pro-2096 at home. Both of these are supposedly rebanding capable. My older scanners are just out of luck I guess. Has any one here heard any more on timetables?
