Waite a minute... This is a ma/com digital. Will a digital scanner track & decode it? I am under the impression at this time the answer is "no". I'll go back and look, but I think the system is P25, however most of the communications are going to be pro-voice, or whatever format (I don't know much about digital). I spoke to the communications director and asked him if a scanner was able to monitor this and the answer was basically no. I think the P25 part of the system is going to be for mutual-aid talk-groups, etc. I am going to be one of the users- one who is disappointed by a digital move, but one who is glad we are getting a system with better coverage, as well as more channels.
I have the frequencies for this in the scanner in my vehicle, but I've turned the banks off. I do not think they are doing any testing as of yet, but could be wrong. I'll have to turn the banks back on.
