The site is currently on the air, although the signal I'm getting is weakening as the band opening is closing.

Checked my SDR a week ago with the entire 850 MHz overloaded. I knew it was the system finally going up.

NAC ID of 792. Guess its because of DSD+ not seeing the system ID lol. (only the site ID). Pro-106 sees the ID as 796 regardless of site lol.

DSD+ shows both the SYSID and the NAC on the bottom line of the event viewer.

The MPSCS in conjunction with Motorola Solutions Inc (MSI) will be integrating the Kent County Simulcast. This work will require approximately 4 hours of total downtime at each of the below RF sites. Surrounding sites will provide coverage for mobile subscribers while portable subscribers will experience limited coverage.

To allow for issues such as system usage, dispatch emergencies, and weather events (fading), the window for completing this work is scheduled as follows:
  • 6104 (Cannonsburg) 7AM (0700) to 3PM (1500) on 12/1/2020
  • 6106 (Belknap) 7AM (0700) to 3PM (1500) on 12/2/2020
  • 6102 (Cedar Springs) 7AM (0700) to 3PM (1500) on 12/3/2020
