Looks like they are completely redoing their radio lineup. Will put in the new stuff and start monitoring to see what it looks like once its done.

What changes are you seeing? Channel lineup, tones, switch to DMR?
I did a lot of research pre-Covid recording the channels to get channel description and order. Even went to the parking deck to identify the input frequencies.
Not sure I'll be able to research too much now that I work predominantly from home. Will keep an eye on it...thanks for letting us know!

Yup complete new frequency set, so this means a whole new data search for the new line up, whether its going to NXDN, or staying analog, new line up with them etc... As I live just a few blocks from the ICM I can get them crystal clear, so can at least get started with monitoring and logging.
Still using the current set up right now, will check daily, as no idea when they will do the upgrade.
What would be the reason to apply for new frequencies and cancel all the old ones? Couldn't they just modify the existing license if they wanted to go NXDN?
Also, I'm surprised 151.625 is licensed as a repeater as it is an itinerant freq.

New IT and Radio folks in charge, new contracts with new company, slick sales reps????? I wonder who has that contract anyway? JES & Sons? Whatever the case, they are replacing it all. As for the itinerant going to a repeater, I have seen this done before in an area where there would be no co chan interference. And since it has been coordinated, and no flagging with FCC thus far, it must be ok with them lol. Its about as weird as IU Health still using the LTR system at IU Methodist and IU Riley. When that lic expired over ten years ago now when they have a robust IP Site Connect DMR network with it linked to the CAP+ IU North system which replaced that site of the LTR.

Any update? I tried to monitor the old and new freqs yesterday before the museum closed but heard nothing (normally I could just barely pick them up from home).
I saw the license was updated to cancel the old frequencies while retaining the new frequencies.

Heard them on Friday using their old channels.
Expect any changes within a short time now that the lic is officially changed.
I guess they changed their mind:

Yea, the FCC changed their mind after not receiving a construction notice, and then terminated the license.I guess they changed their mind:
