Anyone running PRO96COM on the system yet?
Any alternate CC showing up?
Any TGRP affiliations?
Any RIDs showing up?

I am running Pro96com. No TGID's, so no affiliation, same reason for RID's.

Does anyone know which portables (APX 6000 or APX 7000) Fulton County (South Fulton County) has purchased for the impending Digital switch soon? I see RMA is using APX 6000's. I hear they are going to use the current XTS 5000's until other radios are secured.

Fulton county did not procure any replacement subscriber units, just a new zone core and sites. They will continue to operate their existing fleet of primarily XTS and XTL radios, the only APX portables in current circulation are for SWAT, Special Ops, and brass, radio management, etc.

Rural Metro is a private company and yes, from what I have heard, they issued APX6000s to their crews on both ends of the county,

I don't have Pro96com running but I do have a spare RTL-SDR feeding Unitrunker. Oddly I've been seeing calls between a few radios and even see a few talk groups but of course no useful information as Unitrunker depends on RR for its data.

It'd odd to me that nothing new is showing up for you. May have to look into getting a copy of pro96com running for myself now that I have a scanner.

I am in an area that is in a hole. The analog Fulco system is barely received at the home QTH. I haven't had the time to run Pro96Com for a couple of days. You're definitely closer than me.

This has already been posted.
all north county cities EXCEPT Johns Creek will be moving to the NFRRSA system.

Johns Creek will remain on the Fulton county system, as will RMA. They will have access to the NFRRSA for interoperability I'm sure.

And if it does go live will all city still be on the Fulton County's Radio System.

No. Once the north county cities (except Johns Creek) migrate to the NFRRSA, they will no longer be using the Fulton county analog (and soon to be digital) TRS.

After the system goes live how long will it take for some resourceful person to figure out the talkgroups and populate RR?

A very long time. The new system is running 100% encryption
