I also just found Site 19 on 770.20625. It should be Sunol Ridge, if someone can confirm that too.

From my post in Fremont I can hear a weak signal (NAC 9D9H) that could be coming from Sunol. I"m shielded by the hills so signals up there are noisy.

Thanks. If anyone else has neighbor lists that aren't in the DB, let me know and I can add them.

Santiago Peak (1E) is reporting a neighbor site (36) that is not listed.

If folks can check for it (Site 54, control channel 769.96875) we can try to nail down the location so it can be added to the DB.

I've added it to the Wiki for now.

It's extremely strong here in Anaheim, almost the same signal strength as I am picking up Santiago. I'll try to track it down but it seems to saturate the basin.

From the Western SFV. VHF-high quarter wave ground plane at 20 feet. (old Radio Shack scanner antenna).
Oat and Lukens are the two sites I can normally receive.

Very interesting - it’s booming in northern San Diego county as well. Signal strength was within a couple DBm of known control channels on either Palomar Mountain or Mount Woodson. Both those sites seem too far south to be receivable in OC and the LA Basin though… are you guys able to receive either site?

Here’s an experiment. This won’t be an exact science due to transmit power, antenna gain, etc but are you able to receive either of these sites in Orange County? If so how do they compare to CRIS site 54?
  • Fisher Wireless DMR Connect Plus site 119-3: 451.9125 MHz (control channel)
  • MRA NEXEDGE site R31-14, Palomar Mountain: 451.0125 MHz (control channel)
  • MRA NEXEDGE site R31-15, Mt Woodson: 454.440625 MHz (control channel)

I Unitrunkered site 16 from Mt Tam this morning and updated the DB.

I took a trip through Santa Rosa, Rohnert Park and Petaluma and am confident that this is indeed Sonoma Mountain. My Channel activity window of frequencies lines up with what you put in the DB.

I even captured some registrations to the site as well!

Update: 99% sure BEE00 system 9D2 Site 1-054 is Mt Woodson.

Definitely seems likely.

Another neighbor popped up with Santiago today.

Has anyone else noticed a significant reduction in output power on the control channel frequencies for the various sites this past week? I can usually receive 1, 2, 7, 8, 15, 18, 21, 23, 66 booming in southern Sacramento County, but no longer this week.

It seems like they've now linked the whole system together this past week (as seen with the neighbor sites changing), and I'm curious if they made changes to output power so there's no overlap in coverage.

Keep an ear out for inland VHF sites in Alpine, Mono, and Inyo counties. There should be sites at Leviathan Peak, Sweetwater, Conway Summit, Crestview, and Silver Peak. Site 3 (Mt. Bullion) was broadcasting the following VHF neighbors today:

Site 63 - CC 151.2050
Site 64 - CC 151.0025

EDIT: Looks like these are Crestview and Sherwin Summit, based on FCC license info.
