When will I be able to listen to Dixon PD again?

When you buy a digital scanner they have moved to a new P25 repeater. Unless they are encrypted and nobody even seems to know the NAC yet though so I am guessing that there is not to much info on the matter right now.

Have you tried 155.2500/ 146.2 pl ? They were still using it this past weekend during the mumford & sons concert at page park?
However in the data base they list a new P25 repeater which as said, you will need a digital scanner.
I am formerly from that area.

It says Dixon PD new frequency is 151.2125 but I'm getting nothing from it...can anyone help please???

This past weekend they were still using the old frequency. There is a private online feed there in dixon that I listen to and it still broadcasts dixon on 155.2500/ 146.2 pl and lee county on Starcom21 P25 as well as 154.785
They may not have their new P25 up and running yet.

I'm using a Uniden Home Patrol scanner...am I correct that this is a digital scanner?

Yes, you are correct. It is digital and you should be able to hear Dpd if they are not encrypted. :)

It's been almost 2 weeks and I'm still not pickin up Dixon PD....anyone know what I'm doing wrong? thanks

Did you enter Dpd's new frequency in 151.2125mhz. in P25 mode? Also try a NAC of 293.
Just for kicks I would still keep the old freq programmed too.

Also you might check the Starcom21 tg 1076 to see if they might be on lee county's tg?

yes...somewhat I have Home Patrol 1 and not sure why it wasn't picking it up. Today I manually entered it into a Quick Frequency Setting and I started picking up Dixon PD. 151.2125 is working on a manual setting but the scanner still doesn't pick it up on general listening...working on that now LOL...Thank You for your help!!!

Did you figure out what they show for a NAC? Glad you you're able to hear them again! ;)
