Hey Bryan -
Yeah. It's off the air now. I was away from my radio for a little while, so I didn't actually catch it, but I think they pulled the plug at around quitting time (5-ish).

Oat remains off the air today... Just out of curiosity - have they left the other sites up and running?
Thanks... I've got Oat programmed into about half-a-dozen radios now - I'll let you know if it comes back.

For those of you that have been receiving the new system:
Are the testing sites transmitting in Phase II format, or Phase I FDMA? And has everyone been using Phase II capable scanners to monitor so far? I have not tried listening to any sites closest to my town, but I would like to know if it would be worth programming my RS Pro-106 with the system info.
Thanks in advance for any responses.

I received talkgroups 42 and 44 on a Phase I (only) radio. 42 was in the clear (Phase I), 44 was probably encrypted, however, there is some possibility it was a TDMA/Phase II transmission that decoded as gibberish on this particular radio. Time will, no doubt, tell...
Don't know if you have this but thought it might be of interest to you all. From 3/14

Wrong date put up as pointed out, sorry about that. Was looking through so much stuff for recent things and didn't notice the year somehow.

That's 3/14 of 2012 - two years ago. But still interesting, since I've never seen it. Thanks for the link.
Sorry about that.
Noted bunch more frequencies for Sites 3, 5 & 12.

Suspect Oat might have more frequencies as well, but too far for me to receive.
Also if anyone is out in the SGV, have a listen as there was talk of Johnstone site. So one or more of the missing sites likely is Johnstone and covers the eastern portion of the county..
During testing today noted activity on TG 1, 7 and 13.

Did the RICS DB get updated?
I don't think you would have heard anything. I've been watching pretty consistently, and it hasn't been up since it went down.
Yes sir.
Could possibly mean additional frequencies are in the mix and the original 4 have no activity?
Maybe search 476-478 bands during the day for another other control channels. FYI - Other UHF sites seem to be down for the night again.
I'm ahead of you -
I've been rolling through 476-479 on a pretty regular basis since Oat went off the air.
Sorry for the noob question, but which freqs/site is Johnstone?

Johnstone peak is above City of Glendora ...
Based on control channel data from other sites, Johnstone or other locations could be - 476.900, 477.050, 477.950, 773.18125.
I actually think there is something on 773.18125, but signal is too weak to decode from my location.

Does anybody know which site are going to be setup in the southern part of LA County?
