MSP Zone 8 Simulcast in Bristol County

[Gunner_Ed]

Hello

I can receive Zone 8 Simulcast system from the Fall River site, but don't hear any MSP TG's. I was hoping to hear MSP Troop C TG's and add them to my Broadcastify stream, as Troop C is not covered by any livestreams I can find. Any idea if this should be possible?

Thanks in advance,

a. Are you sure you have Zone 8 programmed - What is the current CC you are getting
b. Did you add MSP TG's to the Scan list for that zone ?

Fall River is not part of Zone 8
Fall River is Zone 3 and since C-Troop is not adjacent to any of the D Troop coverage it will be a RARE, if at all , occurance to get any C-PTL TG's on Zone 3

I was going off this RR Zone 8 page:

Site #1 in Fall River. I copied the Zone 8 Bristol County Frequencies and the Troop C TG's from the Sentinel Database...

That is the FCC license and has no bearing on Zones, as it is a mix of sites under that call sign

Here is Zone 8

Massachusetts State Police Site: Central MA Simulcast

Only those sites within the Circle are Zone 8, the others happen to show, because the DB Admin put the callsigns into the Mapping App.

Here is Zone 3

Massachusetts State Police Site: Bristol/Plymouth Counties Simulcast

Only those sites within the Circle are Zone 3, just like you have for Zone 8 the call signs in the FCC contain multiple locations , some related, some unrelated to the Zones.. Rely on what is within the Circles for the Zone

Yea, you'll never see C TG's in D troop simulcast. Those TGs are set to not roam or affiliate. Same as D in C simulcast.

The DB Admin did no such thing. The callsign associated sites show up automatically on the DB software.

I need to question this, as I've seen other trunks with either No Call Signs or Missing Call Signs over the years and made DB submissions... Sorry Mike..

Thank you for that clarification! I looked at the "Zone 8" frequencies again for the Fall River Site and realized they are the same as Zone 3 in Bristol county...
