While fiddling around with one of my antennas late this evening, I came across a fairly strong control channel on 854.2875 MHz. It appears to be for the MCCD system but it's not listed on the RR DB yet. The only entry I could find anywhere on the gulf coast for the frequency was for WRMT222 in Mount Vernon.
I'm in central Baldwin County so reception like this, especially on 800 MHz where I don't even hear some of the 800 MHz AIRS sites, is a bit weird but I guess there was something just right to make it work for about a half an hour. In that time I only heard one call in the clear, and it was a patch call between talkgroups 65101 and 32772, of which neither are listed on the MCCD site but were clearly police comms of some sort. SDRtrunk did eventually pull site data indicating this was site 1, and neighbor sites were listed as 2, 3 and 10, which matches what's on the MCCD listing so far.
The only other talkgroup with activity before the connection died was an encrypted TG of 1107, but again it's not listed on the MCCD page.
I don't know if this is enough to submit to the DB admin so I'd like to see if anyone else is hearing this first.
To add to the mystery I did have one other unknown control channel, 855.1875 but I didn't find an active entry for it anywhere on the gulf coast, so no idea what it could be. It never gave me any network information or calls that I could use to trace the source and it was gone after about 10 minutes.
