For some reason when I am connected to one of the sites with DSD+ that has two ISSI connections, it constantly redisplays the two ISSI systems. Does anybody know how to fix this?

This is happening to me too on Troop I (I am only in range of Troop I at work, I can try Troop H later tonight). I thought it was just my DSD+. It keeps replaying the Wallingford and Middletown neighbor connections over and over... I don't think it's DSD+... it has to be something funny with the site?

It wont happen with Troop H because it only has one ISSI connection. I only have that problem with the sites that have more than 1 ISSI connection.

Under Misc on the DSDPlus menu, you can try "Hide Group/Radio Load/Save Messages" and see if that gets rid of it.
Another option would be to create a recording of it with the DSDPlus option and sending it to DSDPlus folks and see if they can add an option to "opt out" of those messages.

Thanks, I sent them an email with a raw recording so they can look into fixing the issue.

Sidenote: Can anyone map Site 38 Sharon? It should be broadcasting from near Sharon Hospital with a CC of 774.51875 MHz (Channel 1-2002). NAC info, Alt Control Channels and Voice channels.. any output from DSDPlus P25Data file would be great, anything manually seen with a scanner will do fine. I've been trying to get myself up to that area for the last few months but keep not finding time, and don't feel proper adding it to Radio Reference DB until it's heard.

Likewise for Old Lyme. Site 37, CC of 853.05 MHz (Channel 0-327). This tower is based at the Old Lyme PD Station on Shore Rd.

Site 34 ERV (I call it ERV2) that was labeled Colchester at one point. 769.88125 MHz. (Channel 1-1260). This is confirmed on the database but has no ACC's or Voice channel data. (This is odd as one point my DSDPlus mapped it as using Channel 1-1236: 769.73125 MHz for a CC but it has since changed).

Sharon and ERV2 are accurate as of today. Anything that shows as a neighbor is showing an accurate Control Channel frequency but won't show alternates because if they are used, they are considered CCs. You would have to catch it an some event or incident to get the ACCs. I believe the ERVs have the ability to use a number of channels. The limiting thing would be what is programmed in the subscriber units. A brand new frequency couldn't be added without reprogramming all the radios.

I believe all 3 ERV's use the same 6 frequencies but each of them uses a different CC and SCC from the others

The ERV's broadcast their CC when they are in operation and their SCC when they are isolated.

any of those 63xxx groups are patched in from other systems. Middletown and Wallingford are the two that are running now.

It appears that a new site is in operation for the Troop K simulcast in the area of the Mohegan property. I would guess the Crow Hill Rd water tower where the Sun has a 900MHz DMR Tier III site. From the upper floors of the hotel looking west at that tower, I was able to get 4 bars on my 325P2 scanner with a twist tie touching the antenna contact (5 bars with the regular antenna). I think it is new since fall as I did see better reception in December.

For some reason Newington's fire dispatch channel is coming over talkgroup 5651 tonight. That should be a DOT channel, not sure why NFD is on it.

I don’t recall if it was a newington, but I did hear a fire department dispatch week or so ago along with some DOT traffic as well. It seems to occur on and off on occasion, No idea why.

Seems like someone using that talkgroup to "test". DOT Radio Service techs perhaps.
