The coverage browser for Muskegon County, Michigan on Broadcastify Calls is missing links to talkgroups that are accessible by URL, but are not listed. Will these ever be added to the list? They are not encrypted or blocked by Broadcastify Administration. All of the talkgroups below are missing from the Coverage browser, except 61FG6.

You've been on RR for 2 years.
Figured of all things to learn, knowing that broadcastify feeds are volunteer(s) and just because you want to hear something doesn't mean you'll get it anytime soon unless you start feeding yourself.


I misunderstood what you were asking/talking about.
I've noticed that with some other ones as well, I just never asked since I rarely use bcalls to listen

Well I am the feed provider and all of those talkgroups have been monitored continuously for over a year now by my node. And the broadcastify calls feed already exists for all of them, they just doesnt have a link to get to it on the page. Thats why i have a list of URLs to get to them. Im not asking for additional coverage, i just want them to update the list like they do every day with the database.

I realized what you were asking and edited my post, not sure if it showed on your end when you went to comment.
I noticed the same thing on two other trunk systems

I Upload everything to broadcastify calls. Literally. Talkgroups 0-65535. I then retain all calls on my scanning server that runs SDRtrunk all day. I ingest all traffic from all 14 trunked channels on Muskegon County Simulcast, so I have a little over 4 million calls archived locally with less than .005% missed calls. So if Broadcastify accepts my uploads or not, I could care less.

Fixed that for you, lol. ;)

I do the same but don't record. How much disk (ball park) does that amount of calls consume?

100% of those files are call audio. ~20% are MP3 and the other 80% WAV.
Avg MP3 size is between 10 and 50KB while the WAV are about 90-130KB.
Calls date back to August 3 2021.
If I used only MP3 format, Id say it would be just over 50GB right now.

It has to have been captured in the past 5 days to show up in this list.

I'll change it to 10 days to better make it available
