Well, I saw this post and monitored all day and heard 1 key up, with no voice on the 800mhz TG on my mts2000 but did not hear anything come through on vhf, maybe! If they aren't linked anymore! maybe just radio problems. Will leave my radio on tonight to see if I can hear anything on 800mhz

Centerpoint is switching to mototurbo

CPFD is not changing to MotoTRBO. They do use the XPR series radios capable of MotoTRBO but they will stay analog on vhf.

Another radio operator and I were talking the other night and he is a firefighter with Birmingham and he told me that they were switching, but I don't know, just telling you what i know!

I am hearing center point fire back on 800mhz but there is MDC1200 so they must be using VHF radios and just be cross-band repeating to 800 mhz
