First time I have seen phase 1 used. Somebody on TG 10817 testing a radio. I have seen phase 2 on the same talkgroup.

This morning I noticed they moved 857.4625 from the EDACS system to the P25 system. I don't know when this happened.
They have had some or all PD talkgroups patched between both systems for several months now.
Now it looks like the FD is patched. Lots of FD testing this morning on 10791. I think they are reprogramming FD radios this morning and moving them over.
I started collecting talkgroups and RIDs last summer when the system first started being used.
I don't have Unitrunker capability any more so somebody else will have to confirm and submit talkgroup usage to the database. I can't tell if the data in the wiki articles is still good.

Yesterday at 5pm the fire department finished testing all the radios and cut over to the P25 system.
The battalion chief announced that from now on all structure fire response will be on Fireground 1 (10811) until further notice.
They are using 10791 for dispatching. I don't know the name of the talkgroup.
I was not able to figure out exactly what changed. Maybe they just removed all the EDACS programming.
They did roll calls on different talkgroups and several test alerts for the fire stations. I think they are using icalls for station alerting but without Unitrunker I can't tell for sure how they are doing it. Unfortunately I was not able to log any of it and get the rest of the radio IDs or see what changed.
For some reason most of the FD comms are phase 1 now. I don't know why or if this permanent.

A few days ago the EDACS system went off the air. I don't know if it's gone for good.
Today 857.9625 appeared in use on the P25 system.
The 3 remaining channels that were used by the EDACS system appear to be dead and have not shown up on the P25 system yet.
