Went by RIC today to see if Barack's 'change' plane was parked there. No joy, BTW. Also noticed silence from the airport trunk.
New CC is 853.05, and one of the voice channels is 852.275 (WACN of 3E3 showed up). This represents a drop of exactly 15 MHz from two of the former frequencies, which I think were the most used control and voice freqs respectively.
I fed in the new CC and watched the wildcard. Familiar TG ID's were displayed, but only flickering when the radio looked for a voice signal. It appeared that the radio tuned to 854.1375 when seeking to hear voice traffic possibly on 852.275. I take this to mean that rebanding is complete including the new Moto channel #'s.
I'm going to reprogram the PSR-500 with whatever tables I can find for rebanding, but someone with Unitrunkier, etc. might want to check this new CC just in case there's something 'unique' to watch out for.
Will report back once I get some sort of result.
Edit - Richard Rowland looked up the license, and found that the frequencies are 851.4875, 852.275, 852.575, 852.7625, 853.05 and 853.15--an exact 15 MHz-down match for the old frequencies.
