New Marana APCO Freqs have activity

[STiMULi]

A couple of weeks ago I heard some clicks almost like a buzzsaw but not like a control channel. It was only on the 1st listed new channel.

Monday I heard some Digital traffic on the same frequency.

What will the Base freq be?

Marana is up and running. So far it has been encrypted voice.

New frequencies:
855.7375 - Transmits callsign - WQB6810
855.9625
856.4375 - Control frequency
859.4375 - Alternate control frequency

The follow TG's are active.
TG 40961
TG 40964

They used TG's 40961-40967 during the testing phase for this system. I expect the same usage.

In case you missed it in the latest AZ FCC License Grants, you'll need to keep an eye on 860.4375 too. I haven't seen that freq show up using the PRO96COM software yet. They are still broadcasting the old callsign on this system on the new freqs. Today the alternate control channel is active - 859.4375mhz. All TGs are still encrypted :<
