Correct I don't trust the receiver to rely on the control channel. I know I tried to receive from Wilmington about 6 months ago and didnt receive anything; however that was with a bcd436/536 and that was a few updates ago. I dont remeber getting a decent signal until 896 area back then. Can partially recieve now with an sds100, T think adding the band plan will improve things. Thanks for the band plan!
Took a little drive from D74-Chorman Field up to the Cecilton area this morning - still no evidence of the Cecilton ASR on the air as of yet - sorta hoping it would be up. But, the SDS200 was receiving / decoding via Kent and Cecil Simulcast sites at the Royal Farms with no issues. No sure what area the site will fill in.
DSD+ is back to showing it Failed, Isolated, I think it changed a week ago..
Maybe soon..
Why a bandplan for 935.0125??
RID update 2 new series have been active..Been studying the the Cecil RID's captured using DSD+ & SDS100.
Here are some general conclusions. Radio numbers are estimations..

2341xxx Cecilton FD (50 Radios)
2342xxx Chesapeake City FD (100 Radios)
2343xxx Singerly FD (Elkton) (200 Radios)

2349xxx Hacks Point FD (60 Radios)
2351xxx Sheriff Department (200 Radios)
2352xxx Elkton PD (50 Radios)

2357001-099 Health Department (20 Radios)
2357101-120 Transit Department? (20 Radios)
2359xxx Cecil DES (100 Radios)
For some reason most RID's seen so far end in an odd number.. Maybe portables??

These conform to the channel plan
Notice Cecil Sheriffs office still operating on the old system.
They making the switch at a later date? Maybe still simulcast for now?
Dispatch,Mobile units all showing 867,868 some say Radio Testing next to it.
The Transit bus folks still on there as well.
12818 on new system sounded like Paramedic EMS Unit.

867 Multi Dispatch/Patch/Radio Testing (has had various uses in the past)
868 LE/PD Dispatch
Kent Co Sheriff - Detention Center TG 12818
I'm thinkin' 12202 is EMS Ops
12203 maybe an EMS Ops 2?
haven't reviewed today's recordings yet..
Working Fire + Tanker Taskforce on 12211. Appears to be Ops 8

Definitely "OPS 8" ! hearing Chester County P25 patched to it..
Interesting,assume these are Cecil Fire/EMS console radio patches they initiate.
Assume they can do same with other jurisdictions as well.
WAG 12210 is Cecil Fire Ops 7?
Ops = Fire/EMS
Tac = Law Enforcement (Generally on old EDACS this terminology applied)
? 12200
EMS/Fire Main Response 12201
EMS Ops? 12202
EMS Ops 2? 12203
Ops 1 12204
Ops 2 12205
Ops 3 12206
Ops 4 12207
Ops 5 12208
Ops 6 12209
Ops 7 12210
Ops 8 12211

Likely.
12202 is EMS Ops;
12207 is Fire Ops 4;
12208 is (probably) Fire Ops 5;
12209 is Fire Ops 6;
12210 is (probably) Fire Ops 7
12211 is Fire Ops 8.
The Conowingo ASR was lively today - it has been mostly quiet in the past. I pretty much confirmed its main purpose it to fill in coverage along the Susquehanna River valley. Outside the valley, the simulcast cells from Harford and Cecil have good coverage south and north of the river, while Conowingo's coverage outside the river valley is poor.
Unitrunker was showing the Cecilton ASR as "Active" and "Valid" today, which is a change from earlier this week. I cannot verify if it is actually on the air since I did not attempt to monitor it directly.

I have a source that labels some TGs from 12217-12220 as Fire TAC channels - would that mean they are Sheriff's Tac channels and not fire channels?
Fire Tac is used for on scene Fire chatter while leaving Fire Ops channel free for coordinating incoming units so been told by Fire guys.
Police create their own patch Tac channels via Cecil DES console
