Any NXDN in Rhode Island?

[bobruzzo]

I have been reading a lot about NXDN and trains. I was wondering if the railways here (Amtrak and Prov & Worcester) might use NXDN for something. I can receive NXDN using my SDR but dont know if its not worth the bother looking into it.

How much of a bother could it be if you already have an SDR? Not like you'd have to waste money on a paid upgrade. Have a look at 159.570 – 161.565mhz and see for yourself

In all honesty, it would have been quicker for you to look in the db then it was to type your post. Anyway, the database does not reflect any NXDN in use on the RI Rail page for anything that's been submitted. AAR NXDN freqs are in the link that @Whiskey3JMC posted. Scan them, you never know.

Amtrak is 160.9200 open channel Analog FM and the Amtrak Police are on 161.295
I pick up the Late Night and early morning runs in New Bedford MA Pretty good off the roof antenna.

the MBTA has some NXDN in mass. Everything in RI in analog

Well then, pay for the upgrade for your 996P2. Simple.
