Caught a bike race in the East mountains taking place on TGs 80 (primary), 40, 41, and 90.
Was in Santa Fe the past few days, and heard nothing on this system for State Police District One. Never even saw signal detected on the radio from the two local sites( Bataan bldg. and Tesuque Peak). They were however using the old VHF channels. Anyone have info on this?

NMSP D1 is Phase 1 presently too
They could be using Dynamic Dual Mode.I probably need to look more closely, but I'm pretty certain I've heard NMSP D1 traffic utilizing both Phase 1 and Phase 2.
They could be using Dynamic Dual Mode.
"Dynamic Dual Mode, an optional feature, allows users to interoperate between P25 FDMA and P25 TDMA services. It is part of the call processing application and uses an advanced control channel that dynamically switches call assignments between FDMA and TDMA. Dynamic Dual Mode is seamless to users and requires no intervention from users or network operators. For example, if a user in an active P25 TDMA talkgroup call roams onto a P25 FDMA-only site, the system automatically initiates P25 FDMA mode at the next push-to-talk (PTT). Or if an active P25 TDMA talkgroup call is underway at a site and a P25 FDMA-only member of the talkgroup joins (or “affiliates”) with the call, the system automatically switches the call to P25 FDMA mode at the next PTT. The FDMA-only user is now included in the call, and the call switched without any user intervention or awareness."
