District 11 has gone back to analog, apparent issues with the digital move. Probably temporary I would imagine...

It is possible. I don't know if all DOF has fully switched over to p25 or just slowly switching. I do hear analog/p25 in Dist 14. I keep both active case if p25 isn't working correctly for them.
Mon was by daytona beach area on 95 going north saw Tac 10 NAC 65 than today going south on 95 nac 64 popped up and someone said to bunnell using TG 1.Here are the nacs for tac 10 064 065 066.

What's Tac 10? There are 5 repeaters - 100 in Bunnell, 101 in St. Johns Co, 102 in DeLeon Springs, 103 in Edgewater, and 104 in Tiger Bay. None of them are Tac channels. Tac channels are simplex.
Its just that, a DOF Tac Channel that he heard Comms on with the NAC's that he is reporting.
I also heard some digital traffic on Tac channels while in Florida the past 2 weeks, however it was weak and broken from my QTH near Daytona.

Today was heading home and notice DOF using different TG's.

Tac 10 was 151.295 .. think the old DOF radios had 19 channels .... I remember seeing that on the old john gerstner site
Florida Forest Service (FFS) appears to be moving all dispatch channels to (EDIT: VHF) P25.

It looks like each area uses different TG's.

Are they going to 700-800 MHz?

No. They are still on VHF just going to p25. 7/800 doesn't work to well in the woods if they need to go in and put out the fire.

Logged on the Orlando 159.270 MHz NAC 078 .. when they did morning radio check....
This morning while on road trip was picking up Reg 4 Dist 16 Okeechobee 159.405 was getting TG's 1 is Disp and TG's 160 161 162. Not sure if each TG is for each county?

How do you receive these new digital VHF frequencies and NACs, are they DMR?
They are p25. The way I do it is I have the analog and avoid it and make a new channel for digital search. Sometimes they are on analog and or p25 or both.
I caught "Everglades" district today on 159.390, NAC 0B4, talkgroups 180 and 182. Radio ID's 8180030 and 8180112.
Today decide to make up a DOF Wiki. FL Forest Service (FL) - The RadioReference Wiki
To me it looks like Tg-1 is your Disp and Tg 160 is District 16 Tg 0 is channel so maybe Tg 160 is Tactical 0 ,then Tg 161 is tac-1,Tg 162 is Tac-2. Remember they could be tac 1-3 too and they just started with 160. I saw one Guy state Jacksonville was Tg 1,Tg 70,Tg 71.
The radio ID for the Everglades base is 18, talkgroup 182. Everglades happens to be District 18.
