Noticed this too. Almost a week after LASD's L-TAC went encrypted for SCV Dispatch 5
As I recall AMR has been transitioning to the use of NXDN last few years. They are already on NXDN in AZ, NV, and more recently in nearby Riverside County.
If they switched frequencies, they hold a huge cache of licenses, so it would likely be among these
Its also entirely possible they signed up with one of the many Part.90 providers such as MRA and National Science similar to what many other ambulance providers do.

Thank you very much for that information l will monitor those frequenciesAs I recall AMR has been transitioning to the use of NXDN last few years. They are already on NXDN in AZ, NV, and more recently in nearby Riverside County.

My contact states that they were having an issue with their repeater...trying to determine what they are currently using while the repeater is repaired.
Verified: The AMR SCV repeater lost power (along with a bunch of other repeaters) near Bear Divide/Sand Canyon due to the recent weather. The generator/power is out. Awaiting repairs.

So what are they using now? What frequency?
They are using ESChat on their cell phones
Wow. No secondary use available by 2 way?
Interesting site, Magic Mountain. There's almost no commercial VHF/UHF LMR licensed there; just AMR and a likely MotoTRBO VHF trunk. The rest is State of CA, LA County (including LA-RICS), cell, and microwave.

I am hearing AMR SCV dispatch again on their normal frequency.

AMR established a contract with ESChat across the entire United States for their service. Many of the places that currently use LMR are transitioning to the new ESChat devices.

I worked for AMR from 16 to early 20. In Virginia they did switch to the ESchat devices. Was not a fan of them.
Can you share some of your experiences?
