Hmm Signal very low and not registering in dsd but I keep seeing data bursts on 170.8375 and those are showing nac 167. Nothing in the db anywhere near me.

Yes I have heard FBI NYC and Boston on 170.8375 $167
Yes - but not nearly as strong as yesterday.
Yeah the band is opening up again. Getting NJICS almost full scale which is a good barometer to me. I'm looking at maybe Albany for that CC? Or South Jersey or Philly area. Just throwing it out there. We need some listeners from other areas to get on board
. Just heard Sector Virginia on CG 112. Yep its summertime !

If it was South Jersey, it'd be receivable pretty well in Union County, NJ but alas it's not. I think Westchester County is likely a candidate if it's not somewhere on Long Island.
Don't rule out a low power localized site similar to the one at the Morristown Airport. The lack of peers, same as Morristown, might be a clue. Another clue might be the fact that it seemed to be booming when first discovered, but it now seemingly running at lower power, could mean that it was initially turned up at full power then reduced. I would focus on airports in the area first, especially those known to be frequented by the USMS.
I can say this much for certain: if the site is within a 30 or so mile radius of the Rockland/Bergen border along the river, then it's very low power. I can't detect any sign of it, and yet I can receive all other sites except Morristown Airport, including Central Islip.

I have spent some time on this band this morning. Interesting activity. I may have found a new site with little or no tropo, unless this has been seen already. I did not see it in the master system.

If I were to hazard a guess…perhaps Trenton (Airport or City). Not today for me @RadioDitch.

Yup - Brockton MA and New Rochelle NY
Sites 122 and 117 are still reporting the same peers. I am not seeing site 102 today. Anyone near sites 118 & 144 able to see if there are any new peers listed?
Is anyone seeing and control channels in the 406 to 420 range?

Nothing here. But a nice strong one on 385.9
I second Katt. Nothing changed here. Though with Site 144 still displaying no peers at all, it wouldn't be unusual at this point for Site 102 to have none.
All of us in Jersey are monitoring the UHF side for any possible discoveries, but no yield at this time.

Those are the bearings that my OmniX w 50’ of LMR 400 hear best. Location 07059 @ 400 MSL. I pull in best signals about 020 through about 230. Used both RTL SDR and SDR RSPDx. Not a strapping signal but noticeable and solid. UT locked right on like a bird dog.
Typo, meant to say: Though with Site 144 still displaying no peers at all, it wouldn't be unusual at this point for Site 114 to have none.
Unfortunately that doesn't help without knowing where you are in New Jersey and through what orientation you're achieving those bearings. ENE-SE-SSE? or ENE-NW-SSE? Big difference.
Gonna go hunting for it anyway today.
