Alachua County / Gainesville Smartzone new control channel?

[UFEMTFF]

I normally scan in Control Channel only mode with the 3 CCs listed in the database. It's not working anymore today. When I put in all 28 frequencies, it works again. Any idea how to figure out the new CC?

If you scan those frequencies in conventional mode, the scanner should stop on any control channels and you will hear the characteristic noise.

I'm running CC only right now.... Have been for a year. Kinda weird.

Do you only have the one red and two blue freqs. in your scanner? It's really weird.

Just a random thought - is it possible that CC Only mode got turned off by accident?

Nope, impossible. The scanner is in a closet in my locked bedroom plugged into my server for live streaming. And I checked that!

• 868.7750
• 868.8125
• 868.5625

There you go. It's 868.5625 that isn't in the DB as a control channel. And that's the one I didn't have programmed in. Thanks!
