Id’ not heard about this freq being the d-star simplex freq. Is it
coordinated nationwide? Wish I had known this as I just returned
from a over 2000 mile trip across the country.

There is no national coordinating body, but where the frequency is not
heavily used, D-STAR users have been standardizing on it around the
country. Most repeater coordinators will not coordinate simplex
frequencies, their use tends to start grassroots until there is a
gentle-person's agreement that a particular frequency will be used for
a particular application, this was what happened for 145.01 for AX.25
packet, 144.39 for APRS and so forth.
