Mark Twain National Forest – Any analog NFM left or all P25 now?

[w0hfc]

Several threads have discussed the USFS's Mark Twain National Forest’s radio system, but I haven’t seen a clear confirmation yet: Has the US Forest Service fully switched over to P25 for all operations there, or is there still any NFM analog activity left?

If you’re a radio operator or scanner enthusiast in the area, could you please help confirm this?

• Would you mind tuning federal frequencies in P25 search mode and let us know if you discover any unknown (to Radio Reference) NAC codes?
• Also, if you do an analog search and hear any repeaters, please share details (not just anecdotes—actual confirmed reception would be great!).

I'm really thinking that they've completely cut over to P25 and the old FM repeater information posted here in Radio Reference are out of date since I haven't heard any NFM traffic using the PL tones in several years.

Thanks!
(PS - I originally posted this over on the Federal forum, but I think it really should belong here)

It does generate my interest. I haven't been down that way for some time to listen because if health issues. I do remember hearing on P25 last lyear two fire vehicles headed to check on an extinguished fire in the NP. After that, nothing. I have many freqs programmed for MO parks and MO national park(s) but really don't hear a lot when I am SW MO.

I replied in the Federal Forum, from the original post asking if you had checked the Wiki which lists some P25 (never had a reply)
