Blue Ridge Parkway repeaters

[ocourse]

I need help programming these repeaters (receive only) in an Anytone D878UV. I have found the list of frequencies, but the tone system is different in the radio.

I thought they were using P25, not available in that radio?

Hello! My choices for Decode and Encode are Off, CTCSS, and DCS. And I'm pretty much a dummy with this. I'm not sure what P25 refers to.

They are definitely using P25. You're not going to be able to use a DMR radio like a D878UV to monitor.

Thanks, and I suspected that. I could receive on an analog ham radio not too long ago. But that stopped working too at some point.

I need to mention that this transceiver is Analog and Digital.

Your UV878 is digital but only supports DMR protocol. P25 is a different protocol and won’t work on your radio.
you need areceiver/scanner that specifically can decode P25 radio signals.

OK, it's starting to make sense. Thank you!

BRP is on p25 conventional,rumor is and fact of monitering,theyve been testing encryption for the past year and plan to go fully encrypted...so,youll need a frequency counter with sensitivity adjustment to tell when they are nearby....BRP FREQS input freq utilizes all IN range repeaters and simulcasts on multiple repeaters at once..thus why you can hear all radio traffic the entire length of the pkwy..A Truly Superior Radio System....
