Hey there, today I happened to be driving through Northern NM for the first time, and I'm probably gonna be posting several questions on here. For now, my first question is simply this: while in Santa Fe I wasn't hearing any traffic on the NMSP D1 vhf frequencies. (I had heard lots of activity on the D7 frequencies).
Are all the District 1 cars using the 700 MHz system? Just as I'm posting this I started hearing 2-way traffic from the D1 and D5 dispatch talkgroups on 700, and it doesn't sound like they have any vhf patches setup. So have all the District 1 and/or District 5 cars migrated to the new 700 system? That would explain why I'm not hearing traffic on the D1 frequencies (I'm pretty sure I'm too far away to hear 2-way traffic from the D-5 vhf freqs). But I've never been here before so I just wanted to see what the local experts had to say. Any input is greatly appreciated, thanks!!!
