Catawba County P25 test system ?

[kicktd]

Was going through a search of the 800Mhz band looking for any new control channels and stumbled upon some voice channels, mentioning someone to switch to Catawba test channel XX also heard sheriff (?) and fire on the system. P25 System ID of 2D4 is what is showing on my Pro-197, still haven't found the control channel yet though but maybe posting this will get someone closer to that area searching and able to find it. 866.7875 is one of the voice channels, which happens to falls on one of the NCSHP frequencies also so you'll get a mix of NCSHP in analog and digital voice from this new system. So hoping maybe someone can help find out this new mystery system!

Wrong P25 test system, that's 33C

What you found is a voice channel on the Anderson Mtn. VIPER site. Control channel will be 868.9750. The 2D4 you saw is not the system ID, it's the NAC produced on digital voice traffic. The 2D is the last two characters from the System ID of the site (C92D) and the 4 is determined based on the connect tone of 97.30 Hz.

Ah ok . Thanks for clearing that up. I didn't think to check VIPER as I know they are going to P25 but thought it wasn't in my area yet, guess I was wrong and still learning about these new digital systems lol.
