Site 104 in Bloomfield CT at the Goosetown Shop back up after a long absence. Usually it means they are staging a new site's hardware so once it goes dark again, it will be time to look for a new site in that shops area.

Couple of new undocumented sites as neighbors to some Philly area sites
Site 214, LSN 2145 (463.3875) neighbor to Sites 202 & 206. Possibly Bechtelsville, WQVL698? I'm about a half hour southeast, not even a blip on my SDR...
Site 226, LSN 2345 neighbor to Site 202
Site 230, LSN 2387 neighbor to Sites 200, 202 & 208

No clues about the other 2 in wiki...
Site 226, LSN 2345 neighbor to Site 202 [LSN 2345/LCN 1172=464.6375]
Possibly
Tremont/Schuylkill PA

Site 230, LSN 2387 neighbor to Sites 200, 202 & 208 [LSN 2387/LCN 1193=464.9000]
Possibly
Dover/Kent DE
There Are Sooo Many Other Unlikely Returns
Reeser's Summit/York PA
+++

I guess 207 went away?

I caught Site 230 CC on 464.900 1 bar on my 536HP while passing through the Allentown, PA area yesterday so I'd assume Dover, DE would be highly unlikely. York may be a bit of a stretch too. I'm in solid range to Sites 200 & 208 and although Site 230 comes up as a neighbor to both, not even a blip on my SDR. Then again,maybe it is the York County site? :unsure:

If Industrial/Potts is partnering on this then there are many results, possibly Mercer County. 😑

Picked this up the other day. Probably Binghampton WRHT532 .

2025/07/25 12:32:50 Freq=461.00000 Current Network: H4
2025/07/25 12:32:50 Freq=461.00000 Current Site: H4-19.5
2025/25/25 12:32:50 Freq=461.00000 DCC=7 No data for current site found in DSDPLus.frequencies file

Unfortunately, after adding frequencies, I was unable to get it again. Nor was I able to get Site 48 (171) Binghampton. I'll keep trying it over the summer.

You need to force DSD+ to TIIInonStd for this system, otherwise you're going to get incorrect network/site data. The correct values for the Binghamton site are Network H3 and Site 148.

After reading through the threads a couple of times that is exactly what I did. But when I tried again a few days later I was unable to get anything on any of the frequencies. But it was a bad day and I wasn't getting much of anything else. I may give it another shot tomorrow.

We now have a neighbor list:

2025/08/18 08:45:40 Freq=461.000000 Current site: H3-148 Binghamton
2025/08/18 08:46:27 Freq=461.000000 DCC=7 H3-148 neighbor: Site H3-132; CC=231
2025/08/18 08:46:51 Freq=461.000000 DCC=7 H3-148 neighbor: Site H3-145; CC=1933 Walton
2025/08/18 08:48:27 Freq=461.000000 DCC=7 H3-148 neighbor: Site H3-133; CC=283

Later on I'll try to get some voice channels.

Site 133 is probably as listed below.
133 (85) Guilford Chenango, NY WRDQ379 451.7500c / 141 / 283-284

Site 132 control channel calculates to 451.425. Goosetown has a license in Nassau county but I didn't find other licensed locations.

Site 132 should be Hancock in Delaware County

Site 132 in Hancock has a license for 451.525 (LSN 247) so it is likely the neighbor list for site 148 contains a typo.

I mean to say the error is in the site programming by Goosetown. They will probably find it at some point and change the neighbors list.

There is a DMR control channel on 451.425 up in that area, with no signal detected on 451.525. Too weak for me to decode anything, so I can't verify for certain that it's 132. Keep in mind that adjacent site lists pull the control channel info from the controller, it's not manually entered. So as soon as 132 was made a peer of 148, the system would automatically announce the control channel LCN/LSN/CH ID/whatever you want to call it.
