[Scan-DC] RE: Charles County Sheriff's Dept

[Dewey]

Yea, I agree it's a dream, but it also makes a great wish.  DC PD (MPDC)
switched over their operations doing a different District each day at the
midnight shift.  When the affected District would start ops on their
talkgroup, their conventional channel ceased at the exact moment.  However,
I think this was a must since no new/different frequencies were used; IOW,
the same 13 freqs that were the conventional freqs are now the trunked
system freqs.  Citywide 1 is still simulcast on the VHF frequency that it
has been simulcast on for decades.

Sorry, Al.  You're dreaming.  Montgomery County simulcast its police
channels for only a couple of months after it went trunked.  The county
continues to simulcast two of its fire-rescue dispatch channels, but only
because 1) the tone-paging for volunteers is on VHF and 2) PG County is not
on the trunked system.
