Good evening everyone,

Vice President JD Vance landed at McGhee Tyson Airport in Knoxville, TN approx. 5:30pm. I'm currently scanning 164 to 170MHz and so far I haven't heard anything.

Maybe maybe not, they don't use true repeaters but rather a VOIP/satellite system. You'll probably have better luck hearing locals. From command post during a VP visit last year.

Oddly enough, there was none that I heard, but I had everything else turned down while I concentrated on the Fed bands.

They have mobile repeaters they use sometimes depending on how large scale the event is. It's normally radio to radio but this setup reflects these units receiving their radio traffic and sending it to a mobile command post set up a several miles away and also to a few other undisclosed locations so they can communicate to each of those comm centers with ease.

Local and State were using LAW MA 6 for stuff at TYS and the Motorcade. Once they got to Blackberry Farms property they all switched to BCSO 2 and were told to have secure on.

don't rule out the entire 400-420, there is/are still users in 415-420 not conforming to the NTIA requirements/push

Depends on the City/Region - they do tend to use the normal SS Repeaters if they are already in place, those also do get used regularly for the one of it's original purposes, Financial Crimes
