Cocke Co. Fire and White Pine Fire NXDN

[andyb970]

Has Cocke Co. Fire stared using NXDN? I know the S.O has. Does anyone have the RAN for the Fire if they have? What is the RAN for White Pine Fire?

If it’s the same system they should use the same ran . Try doing a talk group search and see what else you find on the system

They are switching there analog frequencies to NXDN. My Uniden BCD536HP has the NXDN add on. It does not do a good job at searching for RAN's when set on search for digital.

Did you try the tricks listed in this thread? It's for the 325, but there's just a ghost of a chance that this trick might work with the HP scanners, too

NXDN Audio Setting

On my BCD325P2 the local PD just added P25 and still use analog occasionally. I leave the audio setting for all as I rarely need the coded squelch for analog or the NAC for P25. I just upgraded my BCD325P with NXDN. Am I correct in thinking if I leave the audio set to ALL my scanner will...

It is from LandAir so I wouldn’t count on being able to listen to it. Interesting though because equipping all the volunteers with NXDN radios would be pretty expensive. Most things on LandAir are encrypted so I would expect that to be the case with the far department too. A real mixed bag for interop: Cocke, Jefferson, and Sevier are all UHF NXDN. Greene is 7/800 P25 Phase II and Hamblen is switching to 7/800 TACN.

With all that being said about encryption I have been fooled before. Time will tell.
