I'm getting Close Call hits on 453.6375MHz in Chambersburg.
It's DMR, Capacity Plus, Color Code 8. Nearest listing for that freq in the RR database is a ProVoice system in Lebanon, which is awfully far away for a Close Call hit. Does anyone know what this might be?

WQDZ456. licensed for NFM & DMR...

Wonder why that didn't show up when I searched the database?

If it's not in the database that means no one submitted it. Remember the RRDB is based on user submissions. If you're able to confirm the details on the use of this channel you can submit it to be added.

If you go to the FCC Licenses tab on the Franklin County database page and enter the frequency in question into the "Frequency" search box, you'll return these results:

https://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?freq=453.6375&action=cf&ctid=2268

I don't know if you went in to search a different way or if the system was being buggy when you tried. I just tried it and got some results.

If you can figure out the system details, send in a submission and it can be added to the database page.

Will do. It seems to be totally offline today, nothing on any freq. I'm running LCN Finder on the system and have nothing so far.

The system is using RAS, which means that my 436 completely ignores it unless the freqs are programmed conventional. LCN finder does nothing, and when programming the system as OFT or TRBO, the scanner never breaks squelch.

It appears RAS was enabled within the last few days, because initially I was able to monitor the system as trunked, and then it suddenly went silent. Now I can only monitor it as conventional, which makes it difficult to identify talkgroups..
