Hamilton is still on the Con+ but the only TG I have seen active on this site today is TG 23112 (IMOS). I have DSD+ FL running on the site.

I've noticed a change in site numbers and I've also provided the neighboring sites:
(Some info may or may not be correct, this is due to signal strength)
Wilmot is now Site 2 - 420.750 - NL: 1, 3, 4, 12, 13
Fergus is now Site 3 - 420.225 - NL: 2, 4, 9, 10
Puslinch Site 9 - NL: 3, 10, 12
Cambridge Site 12 - NL: 2, 9, 13

I wonder where Site 1 and the "new" Site 4 are located?

Anyone get close enough to the north end of Wellington to get the Clifford, Palmerston and Conn towers?

The lastest FastLane release has made some Tier III changes.

Read this thread: DSD+ 2.457 Availible

I haven't updated yet, so this is what I am seeing. I will update shortly.
You can see I haven't editted my frequency, site, network files at this point.

DSD+ messages on the Brisbane site today. Anyone else seeing this? I don't think I have anything misconfigured:

View attachment 153674

Just did the update and updated my files to eliminate TIII errors and it displays precisely the same as yours, except for Blocking Network ID change from L6 to L7, I didn't ever see that on the update.

I wonder if the discrepancies have to do with it being a TIIInonStd system? (Capacity Max)

I'm out at Conestoga Lake and trying to listen in on the control channels listed (on SDRtrunk) but they aren't splitting out the voice channels.
I do need a new/different antenna but I'm able to pick up voice on 420.13668 which seems to be mixed bag. Sometimes Fergus Fire and this morning it was very busy with the local Roads guys.
So, I guess the question is really,
  • is there a way to reverse search a voice channel to the control channel?
  • Should the control channels I do have be producing the voice channels?
  • or is it just my garbage antenna?

Ok, maybe control channels are working as I had Perth Roads S. come across on 420.3875, but very choppy.

It's most likely the antenna. Most of the fire activity can be heard on the Fergus site. The Fergus site can hear Minto Fire and Wellington North Fire where as the other sites only get some depts local to that site and such.

I was noticing talkgroup 5001 was on a group call on the Brisbane tower, but no ID as of yet.

I noticed this talk group this morning was our local roads here Drayton and Moorefield, Not sure if that helps at all, or why they would be off the Brisbane site.

Fire is going out on a call now if anyone is in Palmerston can check it.

It is looking like Wellington County and east is now TIII,and anything to the west is CON+. We might get some road crews over the next few days with the arrival of plowable snow.

Hamilton is still on the Con+ and only have seen one talkgroup (one of the IMOS TG's) active over the past week on this tower.
