U.P. DMR

[Pr999]

Hello, I am looking for information on two DMR systems; Shepler's and Cloverland Electric Co-op. I am wondering if anyone who's been up there or lives up there has tracked either of these systems utilizing a DMR-capable radio with the ability to track IDs & UIDs. I am making a wiki on both right now and I'd like some information about either system before I go up there this month. Please give me any information you have on these systems other than seen on the FCC website or RR Database. Thank you in that regard.

Thank you! But can I get some more confirmation for this? I also want to ask, how often do they use Simplex?

I would love to hear your recordings and see more of your findings, I even have a wiki that can be filled out.
