Insider info has led me to believe DNR, at least in my area of Cowlitz county, has went to digital simulcast. Does anyone have more information and can update the database?

I'm in Woodland and dnr is still very active on vhf...that said..A very tight lipped individual post short videos of dnr & wildlife on a simulcast system. Cowlitz 911 is also very close on their new system, which makes me wonder if Cowlitz fire is going to ditch their nxdn system?

Good possibility. I just got an sds100 so I'm prepared for all the digital switch overs. Unfortunately I have to wait until someone figures out the new frequencies and updates the RR database, as that's beyond my expertise.

a family friend of mine works for fish and wildlife, they like their new simulcast digital system.

Cowlitz Comm center is also currently testing simulcast p25 for all agencies. sheriffs department already has a simulcast dispatch channel

State DNR fire is slowly migrating to their new simulcast digital system, and from what i am told, there is discussion they may keep the current analog system for back up communications in areas digital is not sufficient in cowlitz county.

State Wildlife has their new simulcast digital system live, as i have a friend who works with fish and wildlife, though they do still at times use analog. For reasons i mentioned above.

None of the simulcast channels are in the radio reference database? How do I listen?
