Quick question. Has anything changed with the DMR system at the Oshawa Assembly Plant? Reason I'm asking is I used to receive it perfectly but a few days ago I can't even detect a control channel. Voice channels I can still hear when holding a frequency. They were shut down for the first 2 weeks of July so I'm thinking changes might have been made. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hate to ask the obvious, but have you searched that frequency range to see if the control channel has moved elsewhere?

Yes I did. Cant detect any control channel at all. Was working fine a week ago. Something obviously has changed.

That's definitely odd. Not seeing any changes in TAFL. I'll be out by CAMI next week, I'll see if there are any changes there.

I’m local to the area and can run DSDPlus over things later today. I wonder if they’ve done the Capacity Max swap that a few others have done in the stateside portion of this system.

I just went outside and 939.0125 is still the control channel. Im thinking Enjoi19 is correct. Might have swapped during the 2 week shutdown. Thanks for the replies.

It looks like they have done some changes. Seeing it as TIIInonStd on DSDPlus, with RAS.

Everything is going RAS. It's wishful thinking to be able to decode a RAS. RAS just eliminates NAS scanning, but happily not scanner scanning.
