I'm sorry if this post sounds like its about programming. I'm here more hoping to find someone from my area in Essex County Ontario who is familiar with this system though.

I've been out of scanning for a few years and just got back into it. I was happy to see new scanners that can monitor DMR now and other things. I got a Uniden BCD325P2 and paid for the DMR firmware upgrade. I have that system in with the Windsor Downtown (site) frequencies and my main focus is trying to monitor the Essex County Fire talk groups on there.
I will hear the dispatch on my other scanner from the main fire and rescue service dispatch on 153.7700 or 469.9375. They will dispatch to the particular town or city, but then I will hear nothing monitoring those talk groups on FleetConnect.
43001 T AHFD Amherstburg Fire Dispatch
43021 T EFD County Fire Dispatch
43031 T Lakeshore FD Lakeshore Fire Dispatch
43212 T LaSalle FD LaSalle Fire Dispatch
43011 T TFD Tecumseh Fire Dispatch
I know the system and site is programmed right since I hear every other TG on it clearly. I have heard some talk once even between Windsor Fire dispatch and a unit in Essex. Maybe there just hasn't been a fire big enough but just heard another dispatch go out and nothing on FleetConnect where I would expect that station to reply.
Sorry this is long. I used the Butel software and RR input to program the system. I wasn't sure if I should have used 'CC only' checked or keep all the frequencies listed for the site I am using. I left it as it was input from the software and it programmed in every frequency for that "Windsor - Downtown
site I monitor.
I've been into scanning for years but DMR is still new to me and just wanted to hopefully hear from someone who maybe monitors this same system locally so I can find out what settings they have in for it.
I'm picking up many talk groups in the same system I have programmed in so all seems well. Maybe I'm just lacking self confidence and doubting myself.
