CFA has advised that due to a small network reconfiguration which occurred on Thursday afternoon, that listening sets have been unable to pick up communications. The issue has now been identified, and the network configuration that caused the problem is due to be rolled back tomorrow (Tuesday). This will fix the problems, and listening sets will then work as they should.
The issue was caused by a change that was using a proprietary standard that was not part of the official P25 standard.
A software update for the scanners will be made available early next year so that any future changes to the network won't cause the problem to re-occur. The Joint VFBV/CFA Communications Committee had also requested that an update file be made available to address all the recent changes to CFA channels - so we have requested this update be rolled into that one, so that members will need only apply one software update.
We will advise when the software update is available along with instructions on how to apply it as soon as its available.
In the short-term, you don't need to make any changes on your end. All functionality will return to normal tomorrow once the network change has been rolled back.
