Some testing tonight of P25 format on 453.4125. No ID, just test counts. This is an Allegheny County channel that I've heard some activity on. So.......I would guess, that its Allegheny County testing. I did not catch the NAC.

Childrens Hospital of Pittsburgh

Childrens Hospital of Pittsburgh has moved. They also now have a new communications system. They are using :
461.875 - Digital
461.6375 - Digital

They are licensed for more, but I have heard these active, as well as inputs.

They are using new Motorola radios that appear the be using TRBO digital format. This is a proprietary digital format, that is NOT P25 compatible.
