I'm not sure if my data are legit...In addition to the updates I just made to the system frequencies in the DB, my software is also showing the following additional frequencies:

East
851.7625

West
765.70625
772.25625

My decode rates really bounce around wildly for both systems when I am doing CC decoding. So, I don't totally trust the data. I think the three frequencies above could be erroneous. Anyone else?

The OP
Aha, cool. I trust the systems were sized to meet expected max traffic. Although if the old system was running on 9 talkpaths, 24 should really be a huge uplift and more than enough so we'd never have to deploy the additional 8 from the CCs. I wonder if there is/was a way to measure latent demand on the smartnet system? Probably not, as the bonks would preclude from a full conversation happening...
It would be an additional 6 talkpaths from the 3 unused cch's....

Do any of the repeaters that would rebroadcast regions on the old system work with the new. Trying to find ways to listen to West since I am not close to any west sites

I have not heard any of the three
that used to be on. At 4 grand a pop for the radios, it
May be hard to justify a new radio just to cross band

I heard activity last week on Lower Providence's VHF rebroadcast at 152.945 which simulcasts all regions except 5 I believe. Haven't had the chance to test the others yet...

Lower Pprovidence had theirs up. I have not listened to it for a week or so, but it was there.

EDIT: Ha. Simultaneous responses....

Has anyone confirmed which TG is the emergency revert TG? Aka man down or formally known as “ orange” ?

im also assuming the one for Fire/EMS is different than PD and is it safe to assume that the one PD uses would be Encrypted as well?
