800 UCA Motorola system status

[enosjones]

So the 800 system sites Ford control channel inactive one of the voice channels is keyed up
price dispatch site control channel inactive or offline, Bruin i can't hear, cedar mountain emery control channel is active or online. not sure about others, anyone else have a status on the 800 system?

All offline except for Toquerville Hill down here in Washington County. 800 Antennas have been removed from the sites as well.

 

[enosjones]

I was also told that utah County sites also are offline

 

[gldavis]

Ran a check this morning, found the following still "up" in/near Davis Co; Site 02-Davis Co Simo, Site 03-SLCo Simo, Site 07-Mt Ogden, Site 09-Francis Pk, Site 10, DCo Landfill, and Site 11-Nelson Pk. In addition to the 800 MHz SLC PS and SLCo PW systems.
I am hearing traffic on the SLC and SLCo systems, as well as occasional traffic on the 800MHz UCA system. All these systems are still active.

 

[enosjones]

So if those sites are still up and being somewhat used should we wait on degrading the uca 800mhz system on the database until the rest of the sites go dark?
also I have my own discord with 1 Channel dedicated to uca stuff if u want to join, the whole server isn't dedicated to it just 1 Channel is. also channels dedicated to utah news and weather just fyi if anyone wants to join it.

We can do some kind of poll here or one on discord, to see if the general consensus is to take down the uca 800 off the database or leave it for now.

 

[gldavis]

My vote, is undecided. Th majority of the 800 MHz is dead/moved, but there is still some traffic. I have yet to read/hear/see anything about when the system will be shut off.

Also, the former talkgroup assignments and organizational structure might still prove a useful reference to understand the P25 system.

So if they have, some of the sites offline or in inactive status, then who would they still renew some of the fcc licenses still? Teat, Nelson, Echo, Lewis, are being renewed in the last fcc run of the last 30 days for 800 for UCA, with the frequencies that they have used for trunking. what would they want to use them for if the system is getting replaced?

This is a really good question- if these licenses are being renewed...

Is anyone still logging traffic on the old 800 MHz system? I'm considering deprecating it.

 

[enosjones]

I don't hear Cedar or horn control channels on 800. only 800 control channels are Enbridge Gas.. Ford and Bruin and price are gone as well on uca 800.. unless northern Utah people are hearing any control channels ,id say yes on depreciation

 

[enosjones]

Unless the Fcc licenses produce something in the future...

 

[gldavis]

I just plugged the Davis Co Site in a radio. I'll let it scan/search for a couple days, and let you know what I hear.

 

[enosjones]

Check to see if the control channels are still online as well , all of them are offline down here...

 

[gldavis]

The only UCA Control Channel I found was for the Davis Co Simo Site. Salt Lake City Public Service Site is still up, also.

And now it is gone.

 

[theaton]

You're not picking up any sites now?

 

[gldavis]

Davis Co was the only UCA Site I was receiving, then it was gone, and now it is back. I would greatly appreciate it if they would make up their minds.

 

[enosjones]

as far as I can tell ours are offline..
