AEP must be making some serious money to erect more tower's and buy equipment . The only way they can afford it is to Jack up the power rates . I received a notice that AEP put in an application with our state corporation Commission asking for a rate hike to cover the lost revenue of transformors and poles and what ever wanted . My personal opinion it's the funds to keep buying radio equipment . im totally against the rate hike and I've talked to the commission about it and I'm not the only person that's complained .

Sorry to high Jack the post but I wanted to speak my mind and let others know of the rate hike .

I just took a look and it appears Leonard and Sand Springs are now TDMA CC. (DSDPlus won't decode and it sounds like recordings in this thread.)


If you have any sites around you that you can still decode the CC of, do that and then look in your Sites window for any sites that list an 08-xxxx channel number.

I was telling mike via the phone today that Steubenville Ohio Jefferson County site 26 which is very close to my remote location and I can see the tower was being over ridden by Macksburg Ohio Noble County site 74 because they use the same CC 854.2625. Crazy

My submissions were rejected for not being confirmed enough yet this is allowed in the db with no confirmation at all.
"We need more info like SysID, WACN, Site Numbers; maybe some NACs."

I was able to decode Logan and it had a new alt/cc. I probably could’ve gotten all the West Virginia sites, but some control channels were associated with Ohio control channels

It was amazing this morning. I got 75% of the West Virginia sites.. I even got different sites from Indiana on 800 mhz...........

I've been having issues with slow data file loads (I have over 400,000 radio records in my DSDPlus.radios file) and the DSD+ folks sent me an updated DSD+; it still loads too slow, but it decodes your files!

This got added to my DSDPlus.P25data file:

Ran a test version of DSD+ today on the TDMA CC sites in South Texas. Attached is the P25data excerpt. Haven't been able to copy any of the newly identified peers. Beeville and Alice are both reporting same CC know and can't decode either one now.

Don't you just love when you pick up more than one location on the same freq and can't decode. It's a real pain lol. @firemantom26 will tell ya that.

Finally got Clarendon, TX and a good decode on Hedley, TX.
Clarendon is the end of the line in NW TX.
Last week one of Hedley's neighbors showed it as TDMA CC. Today it was back as a regular CC. I'm not sure if that was real or a decode error.
