What frequencies and what agencies are you referring to?
700 MHz is still active. ISP Pocatello and Idaho Falls is active on UHF(460.100, 460.200). https://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?sid=4742

Do you know which transmitter site you are receiving? If it is the Blackfoot site (005), the control channel may have changed. Make sure all of the frequencies listed in the database for the Blackfoot site are entered into the scanner. Also you might want to enter site 044 Shelley Butte and site 004 East Butte frequencies as they also broadcast Bingham County talkgroups.
Site and frequency data are on this page: https://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?sid=4742
In checking the FCC License for Bingham County 700 MHz, I have found two additional frequencies have been added to the Blackfoot Site. Also, an additional license update is pending which will add five more frequencies to the Blackfoot site. I have added the additional frequencies to the data base for both the Blackfoot and East Butte sites.
Both E. Butte and Blackfoot Sites will be transitioning to the new pending frequencies. They have to vacate the frequencies that are in the Band 14 Spectrum, which the National Public Safety Broadband Network will be building for First Responders.
Control channels for both sites either have changed or will change in the near future.
This also affects the Chinese Peak site in Bannock County.
