My county (Muskegon County) has two different feeds from different providers for Muskegon County Police Dispatch. (Feed A, Feed B). I noticed that both feeds have issues including Inconsistent Uptime, Feed Quality, TrunkTracking issues [see feed B description & frequencies], and extended outages. After observing these issues, I did message the feed provider to offer some insight and feedback on their issues, but they did not reply on Radio Reference forums. With the lack of return communication, I decided to submit an application to feed Muskegon County Police dispatch myself, but it was rejected due to being a duplicate.
My intentions are to give the Broadcastify listeners the best experience possible, regardless of who the feed provider is. I know that some feed providers try the best they can and have limited knowledge, but if they provide an inadequate audio feed, I honestly don't believe their feed should remain if somebody offers to provide a better stream.
My Broadcastify Calls Node (#999) has an incredible track record and can simultaneously monitor all individual trunked channels of Muskegon County Simulcast, which means it nearly never misses a beat. I I have the intentions of using SDRTrunk or Trunking Recorder to supply an Audio feed to Broadcastify, but can't do so due to it being a duplicate. I did submit a request on Broadcastify Support via Zendesk and am awaiting a response. But how do others feel about this issue? Should quality trump feed start duration?
