Hiya All- I'm new to the world of amateur radio. I recently purchased a cheap little SDR and have started scanning the airwaves. I tried listening in on some of the DMR systems listed here at radio reference without success. When I started troubleshooting, unfortunately all I uncovered was more confusion! I guess my first question is this- is there someone in the county that is knowledgeable about what kind of system they are using out here? RR suggests it's a Hytera XPT system managed by Dean's two way. A little digging revealed that the county used to partner with Diverse and their Tetra setup? After more digging it seems the county approved an upgrade to a p25 system last year but I have no idea where that's at. Specifically, I'm in the Cataula area and have been tinkering with the frequencies listed at RR for this site.

Anyway- before I can figure out why I'm not hearing anything, I need to verify what I'm trying to scan! If there are some old pros here who have a little history/knowledge on the county system and wouldn't mind sharing with a new guy it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
