Sometimes it's never changed, lol
Sometime in the last 24 hours, they changed it to the correct WRWE359 callsign identifying every 30 minutes on 774.49375 (with direction to do that showing in the control channel data when that happens).

Thank you. Looks like they are getting close to moving Sheriff, Fire/Rescue, and Schools to the system.

Hopefully, Schools are unencrypted. They are currently using DMR with Enhanced Privacy.

I was wondering if a transition was happening today. I am not hearing anything on either F/R or SO channels.

They were using the conventional channels yesterday (Saturday). At least fire and rescue was because I could hear the analog static while I was doing some work outside with the scanner on.

They've gone past their latest projected completion date. May be hard to predict when it will actually be in use at this point.

Talkgroup 300 was identified as "School Buses". Sounds as if they are testing fire paging tones on Talkgroup 100 this afternoon.

I think radio techs called TG101 "Incident 1" and TG107 has some sort of fire training communication today.
