Need some help

For example Henry County, Virginia (VA) Scanner Frequencies and Radio Frequency Reference P25 frequency’s in here until fire/ems or law enforcement are they Phase 1 or 2 and how do I know what are p25 phase 1 and 2

 

[John]

They are conventional P25 repeaters and not Trunking. So there is no Phase II option. They are Phase I.

If you're referring to the P25 conventional channels (500 NAC) these are always Phase 1. Phase-II is trunking only, there's no such thing as Phase-II conventional

If you're referring to the conventional channels these are always Phase 1. Phase-II is TDMA trunking only, there's no such thing as Phase-II conventional

okay, so if they are listed on the page of the county without clicking anything else they would be phase 1

So the thing I circled if the frequency is under that it would be conventional?

No idea what you're asking but the wiki below described the different types of APCO 25

Sorry if I’m being confusing I’m try to think of how to word it, all I’m trying to figure out is how to tell if the frequency is used by phase 1 or 2

These are P25 conventional frequencies


These are trunked radio systems. Note, the "type" column shows you what system type it is

System Name	Type	City
DMRVA Amateur Radio Network	DMR Conventional Networked	Various
FleetTalk Carolinas	NXDN NEXEDGE 4800	Various
Virginia Statewide Agencies Radio System (STARS)	Project 25 Phase II	Statewide

Okay thank you for the help I believe I understand on how to know the differences

 

[JamesMiracle]

One last think the first picture u added with the red box, if they are listed in that category they would be conventional correct?

 

[wtp]
