Maybe I am blind or maybe I am stupid, but I do not see a NAC listed on this system. Please educate me.
P25 trunked NAC are a per-site parameter, and so they are found on the site details page, not the system page. It's been this way for years.

Is there active location testing going on at this point, with portables and mobiles at various locations throughout town?

I have not heard anything for the past few hours. Earlier today there was some count testing going on ("Testing 1, 2,3...") but it did not last long. I have no idea what department it was or where they were testing from.

Well I slept through this one!!! Holy Cow my feed will soon be obsolete, cause I shall not grab another Digital radio just for a feed. It was fun while it lasted.

Scheduled switch over for the new system is end of September

I'm not seeing any sign of a switchover today. Are you able to ask your contact if they have any updated information. The last time I heard any radio testing was over a week ago so I'm guessing the switchover may still be a long way off.

That's the latest information I have. I will reach out again and if I get any additional information I will get back to you. I think we can all monitor the system and get a general idea of the progress as time passes...

I threw a dongle on it. Had ZERO activity other than the 5 channels appearing for a couple of days. Not even a registration/affiliation. Just looked now and I see one talkgroup and one affiliation to that talkgroup. So I'd opine they haven't even issued out portables yet or I'd see the curious ones logging in and flipping the channel knob. I'd also say they haven't done grid/tile testing yet. Just my .02. Lets push this one to October at this point lol

I would even say end of year at this point. PD, FD, DPW...that's a lot of radios to issue and test.

Ran trunking discovery on the HP2 today. There was some activity but not a lot.
303- various tone alerts
114- several encrypted transmissions
105- several key ups with voices in the background.

Not much for a system that’s supposed to be operational soon. I guess I’ll start running it daily and see what I get.
