Also, I see your in middle of ottawa. so thats this
Ottawa (CARLSL) Site Details (Bell FleetNet - Ontario Provincial Government Zone 2)
there is a site that does not look to be that far away, and it lists a range of 30 miles. That number should be the intended area of use. You know the area best. See , on google maps, how far ottawa is from Pembroke.
Pembroke (PEMBRK) Site Details (Bell FleetNet - Ontario Provincial Government Zone 2)
Ther is also another site in ottawa that may yeild you better results. I have not searched out any of the freqs yet but site 7 might be worth a shot. If none of its freqs are used as control channels elseware, you might have better luck.

No, I'm not a paying member.
I did go through and remove all the extra channels, but they self-populate a few seconds later. I had to enter all the frequency info by hand. I confirmed every single channel on the website, and typed those in. All the other frequencies are either ones I discovered, or just random freqs in case Unitrunker was getting confused with random 800MHz freqs in some of them (see my earlier post).
I'm quite positive that the system has changed. I have labelled a bunch of the groups (Ottawa EMS Dispatch, OPP Dispatch, MTO, etc) and I can see them using almost all of the channels (even ones not listed on the website). So there are definitely more active channels than are listed on the website.
Pembroke is QUITE a ways out of town, definitely out of VHF range. The Kinburn spot is intersting, I'm just barely inside the circle at the right-most edge, so I may try that one. However, the current one (site 6) is a very good, strong signal. It decodes with 100 health all the time. Plus, I'm not sure how the FleetNet works, but I am interested in stuff happening in the Ottawa area only.
When I get back to Toronto after Xmas, I will try the system down there again (which, IIRC, I had the exact same problem with, though I think the control freq is further away from the channels than here).
