Barton Jail gone digital?

You can't hear them anymore. Is it digital?

Could you possibly do a Close Call?
A new frequency assigment to the jails communications could have happened and new mode. Not sure if TAFL would identify that, or outdated.

I'll try to see if I hear anything with my DV10-DV1. Both have TETRA Trunk on them.

The Critical Communications Review - Williams Communications Services to Supply PowerTrunk Tetra System for Ontario correctional Facilities

Ontario Newsroom

"Work on the Facilities Radio Network is scheduled to begin this spring and will be implemented in facilities starting in late 2022. The network is expected to be fully operational across the province by the end of 2024."

"Williams Communication Services has been awarded the Facilities Radio Network contract for a 15-year term to replace and maintain all core, in-building radio infrastructure and user equipment that staff rely on to keep facilities safe."

My understanding is that Powertrunk relies on Sepura brand radios/portables.

The systems are 100% encrypted from what I've been told. Jails down my way switched to the new system some time ago.
