Did you catch a NAC? :unsure: 4AD would be the logical conclusion...
No Rx from N of of the MD line..
Logic be gone! - 4AF. Also peers with the Harford site which surprised me. C4FM is the modulation of the cch, which is consistent with a standalone site.

Also, forgot to mention that the nominal receive range for a Phase 2 tower site is roughly 8-12 miles, so if you are in SE PA, you probably won't be able to receive it.

Has anyone logged TGs in the 12215-12220 range? (Should be Fire Tacs.) And the Fire Police in Cecil? (Should be 12239, according to various sources.) I want to confirm before I submit to the db. Also, and anyone confirm the uses for TGs 12204-12206?

And general question: does Cecil use DVRS? FIRST is designed for on-street portable coverage, so in-building *might* require supplemental coverage by DVRS and/or BDAs.

TG 12238 is confirmed Fire Police. Not sure if they have more than one TG or not.
I have Fire Police as 12239, and their Tac as 12216 - might want to monitor those as well to confirm their use.

I'm using DSD+ & monitoring everything Cecil from TG 12200-12400 on my SDS100 (ID search is on, & am locked on the Cecil Site), I've avoided the confirmed TG's (and all other FiRST departments) in order to record & figure out those that are not known yet. If 12239 is another Fire PD ch. I've not heard it used as such, yet. I've been performing these same steps (Pretty much non-stop) since about March (Just before the Cecil Site was changed)...

The bold TG's listed on that link are locked out..

The whole process possibly could go faster if anyone sitting with a list of TG's or a Cecil Radio's Ch lineup info would post the info publicly.. :unsure: (As in, here in this thread) (Or pass the info to a DB admin anonymously)

TG 12292 is busy today.. Still not sure what it is yet...

I really, really enjoy the hobby, and figuring things out. :geek: Pushes and Shoves in the right direction are welcomed.... :)
Don't care who gets the credit for finding them... :rolleyes:
Just wanna go out and play, really.... :cool:

Anyone directly associated with FiRST admin in any form is likely under an NDA so they won't be able to post. Best case someone with a fire radio can post how many channels they have programmed, but they won't know the mapping of tgid to display name.

I updated the RRDB this afternoon with TGs for DNR-NRP Area 3 (PG and AA Cos.) There is another set of TGs that also carry Area 3 / 3xx units: 7546, 7547, and 7548. The interesting thing is some RIDs will switch between both dispatch TGs associated with Area 3 (7501 and 7546.) Another interesting correlation is that it *seems* that the DNR Crownsville VHF site simulcasts via TG7501, while the Matapeake site simulcasts 7546, but I haven't positively confirmed this behavior yet, and I'm not sure what's happening with Solley (which I can barely receive.) I'm wondering if this is some kind of transitional setup until FIRST is completed in Zone 5, and one set of TGs will become Area 4....

Looks like this morning (and could have been happening previously,) channel grants are happening on both TG 7546 and 7501 simultaneously. UT2 does not indicate a patch for these, although other DNR TGs are patched together currently.

7501 & 7546 are definitely patched together. No idea the reason. Listening to Solley Site and both 7501 & 7546 are showing up on Unitrunker while users on Solley are talking.

I show Area 5 patched to Area 6 (7506 -> 7511) with 7506 subordinate to 7511 in the Patches console of UT2, but no patch between 7501 and 7546. It's like they are simulcasting on both TGs - I'll be looking to see if they TGs are using separate talkpaths.

EDIT:

And they are: the TGs are using different slots simultaneously.

Short answer is yes..

Are you just scanning FiRST or a bunch of stuff? (Try holding on the system)
Have you set the system up to just look at 1 site? (Try Site Hold on Cecil Site)
In other words.. If the scanner(s) is/are looking for control ch.'s from all the FiRST sites, It will take a long time to rotate through the list, and all the while you'd be missing stuff only on the Cecil Site (And also Cecilton, Conowingo ASR's and Harford, Kent Sites to a lesser degree..)
I'd ensure all sites are avoided except 3.14 Cecil from your location in Elkton.. (At least to experiment)
You'd likely improve chances more as well if you hold on the Cecil Department, There are a lot of other users on FiRST and the radio can hang up on MSP, SHA, NRP, MTA ect.. TG's instead of the Cecil traffic your wanting to hear..
From your location in Elkton you should be hearing traffic...

I'd try those things. Hope you get those radios talking..
