Phoenix FD Simulcasting Channel 1 on DTRS

[AZScanner]

TGID is 1794, this was heard on Simulcast D. Weird thing is there's no patch active on C as far as I can tell... kind of a bummer.

I need to go downtown today for lunch so I'll be monitoring A and B - I'm hoping the other channels are being simulcast besides A1. If so I'll note the ID's and post 'em.

Well, maybe it was just a test. I didn't hear the patch up at all this weekend, and no other channels up besides A1 when it was working... bummah.

If anything changes, I'll update the group.

Another update for everyone:

I consulted with my fellow local scannerheads and they tell me the reason why the patches go up and down and are rarely active is because there are so few PFD units with 800MHz radios right now. That means, when you hear PFD on the DTRS, it's because an 800MHz capable unit is monitoring that talkgroup. So, bearing that in mind, here's a new P96 file with, among other things, the PFD talkgroups included. Enjoy!
