Is Troop C on the old analog TRS, the new Astro-25 TRS, or on VHF? I live in Memphis, TN, and will be making trips to West Memphis, AR, and was wondering how to monitor them.

As of now they are still analog. The only troops fully digital are L,I, D, and B. E & F are the next to go digital.

And, if you need them, all of the new digital freqs are listed by troop in the files section of my yahoo group link below. RRdatabase has those that are active.

Also, PM sent on another topic.

West Memphis is Troop D

If I'm not mistaken, West Memphis Arkansas State Police units are Troop D based out of Forrest City. I think Troop C is Jonesboro area.

Milf, you may be hearing Troop D in Crittenden County. Troop D is fully digital now. Troop C covers Poinsette, Craighead, Mississippi, Greene, Randolph, and Clay Counties. The freqs of Troop D are:

Troop Site Location County Frequency

D Shell Lake Crittenden 866.1000
D Shell Lake Crittenden 866.1750
D Shell Lake Crittenden 868.4625

The rrdatabase has this info and some TGID's. I'm sure there are TG that haven't been submitted yet. Troop D has been online for just over a month or so.

Troop C will only have sites in 2 counties when they go online, Randolph and Mississippi. As of right now, Troop C is supposedly still analog. But the digital freqs will be:

Troop Site County Frequency

C Pocahontas Randolph 860.4375
C Pocahontas Randolph 866.0875
C Pocahontas Randolph 868.3250
C Pocahontas Randolph 868.5750

Troop D is also still using the VHF repeater in W. Memphis... If I had my 2096 already, I would log the ID's for Troop D..... :)
