Thanks for the update. What you heard was analog - right? Peter sz

I was hiking in the northwest corner, and was up about 9,900 ft with a portable. I was able to pick up West and South in Analog. Interesting codes they use.

Just spent over a week there. Here you go................

166.325 (NOT .375, may have changed) = North repeater and simplex, analog and some digital.

165.59 and/or .5875 = South repeater and simplex, analog, some digital, and (unfortunately) some encryption.

166.875 = West repeater and simplex, only heard analog.

172.5 = Fire Cache, only heard analog.

155.28 = EMS 1, only heard analog.

171.675 = Teton Nat. Park Main, repeater and simplex, only heard analog.

168.55 = Teton Nat. Park Channel 5, simplex, only heard analog.

152.42 = Xanterra Ops

153.905 = "Gold", did not verify, but heard Rangers switch to this.


The rest are verified and I heard traffic on all.
