Carroll County DMR Tier 3 system TRS

5/26 - CCSO, CCVFD, HPD, HFD, MPD, MFD, EMR, and the other quasi city/county fire depts in Carroll County are all exclusively using and will keep using DMR Tier III (with analog VHF and UHF gateways also broadcasting for everything except EMR) until they switch to TACN in a few months. Priority ambulance is still paged on analog VHF and talk with medical helicopters on analog VHF state 155.205 and 155.34. Note that HPD's analog gateway has been down a couple months so DMR is all that has been working.

• 7/25 - Carroll County has apparently abandoned their MotoTrbo system. Transmissions have moved from rare to never. All entities have moved back to their conventional system, except McKenzie police dispatch, which has gone dark--either from encryption or moving to unknown destination

---

It seems this was a Tait system, not a Mototrbo.

• 2/5/25 - Radio Communications Update - Electric Department General Manager Ryan Drewry gave the Board updates on the Tennessee Advanced Communication Network (TACN) participation contract, which allows access to the state’s radio network. The contract was signed and returned on January 16, and took effect on February 1.

Radio installation is expected to be completed by the end of the month. The Board also reviewed a 60-month lease agreement with Integrated Communications Inc. (ICI) for TACN-capable radios. This lease, which was selected in December due to its lower monthly cost compared to a Motorola contract, is expected to save the Department $1,387 per month. From LINK

Clarksburg WEB

• The City maintains a storm siren located behind the Dollar General store. The siren is triggered when there is a TORNADO WARNING issued by the National Weather Service for any locality in Carroll County. Tornado warnings in adjoining counties DO NOT trigger the siren nor do any severe thunderstorm warnings. Responsibility for triggering the siren rests with the Carroll County Sheriff's Office. In addition, the Mayor and City Recorder have the capability to activate the siren if there is an immediate TORNADO WARNING for Clarksburg and the Sheriff's Office has not responded in a timely manner. The siren is tested weekly by the City Recorder at approximately 8:30 a.m. on Tuesdays.
