Anyone in monitoring range of this county? Can you provide some updates? If the LE/Fire did switch to DMR - can you see if you can grab Talkgroups and Slot #'s - and verify the same frequencies have indeed shifted from analog to DMR?


TIA!

I'm on the fringe of reception area- all I hear is FD dispatch on 154.4 (PL 127.3). In the "olden days" this was full duplex with field units, firegrounds etc, but now it appears to be dispatch only

I can confirm that Madison County switched over around 2024. They're on VHF DMR Trunking full time encryption for the entire system. I believe the 154.400 is still operational for tone outs but that's all.

Anybody know what frequency or frequencies its supposed to be on?

I've been investigating..... I'm on the fringe area of reception, so its a bit sporadic and time consuming for me. What I have found is:

Madison County is licensed on KIS682 with six frequencies with DMR-type emission (7K60FXW). According to the license data these six frequencies are located, two each, in Madison, Greenville, and Day.

I loaded these frequencies into my SDS200 and so far it has detected digital style signals on both the Madison frequencies and one Greenville frequency. I then loaded the six frequencies as a DMR CAP+ system with three sites, ran LCN finder and this is what I have so far:

Site	Frequency	LCN	CC
Madison	154.1375​	1	7
Madison	154.3175​	2	7
Greenville	154.2500​		7
Greenville	155.6475​
Day	155.6100​
Day	156.1950​

Have not heard any talkgroups yet, perhaps all encrypted. Still listening and will update as I learn more

Did you catch the site numbers?

 

[dgoodson]

Did you catch the site numbers?

My only resource is an SDS200, unless you know a trick I don't

 

[K4DPA]

Did you catch the site numbers?

I believe Madison is 1, Greenville is 2, and Day is 3. I could be wrong tho.

The information that this user provided is basically all that I have. I may have some of the talk groups.

No problem. I've actually been sitting on this for awhile and never got around to submitting it.
