Neither of the frequencies mentioned appear to be Port Republic. I was PMing a BDA that points at that tower today, no sign of the frequencies on the spectrum analyzer.

Since I found out today that ACCC is in the air, perhaps thats it. I think I have pictures of the GTR hardware, might be able to read the sticker to see what was put in
ACCC should be Site 62, unless something has changed recently.
I'm a bit confused about the Port Republic talk. We've shown that site online as part of the Hammonton cell for many years (5.1 Hammonton, 5.2 Atlantic City, 5.3 Port Republic).

773.06875
774.04375
769.96875
769.45625
770.20625
Maybe @bunangst its in this list??
6 of those frequencies are the Hammonton simulcast (the two in red are not)
Which is quite interesting....They are also installed at Mays Landing. Perhaps some growth is in the works for the other sites in that cell?

Hmmmm...Yeah. You are definitely correct.
Ed mentioned it and I have not been there in quite some time...but I definitely have pictures that show GTR Rack from May of 2019.
Carry on

It looks to me that either Cumberland or Cape May simulcasts may be slated for a new site. Bit of a difference between street address and name and GPS location. Coordinates
make sense, the State DOT yard on NJ49 southeast of the city. Nice tower there too.

For listening 44.62, 44.78, 44.66 what sites would be best. can't seem to hear activity like i used too
One is due at Somers Point (GSP Tolls).
WOW! 44.62.....I used to have a crystal 4 channel scanner that had that in it and I would listen to Edison Barracks all the time. Dont mind me...I am just a 70's kid
Bomar is still there ya know!

Question, How come when I'm scanning the Passaic County Simulcast site, it shows the freq 770.5312 on the display, but when I scan another site say Morris County or West Orange, I get NFM where the freq was showing? Do I have something wrong?
This is on my BCD325P2.

770.53125 is the Passaic cell control channel. You're seeing that when the scanner is idle because it's locked on the control channel. You should also see DAT on the scanner's display. If you're not seeing a frequency or DAT when scanning other sites, then you have no signal from those sites and you're not actually decoding anything.

Thank you for explaining.
857.44375 NAC:39Ah Very strong signal Pleasantville and Atlantic City
858.70625 NAC:392h Stronger by the Atlantic City airport while traveling on AC Expressway

You are most likely experiencing simulcast distortion. The scanner is having a problem detecting and decoding the control channel. Try moving the scanner to a different location, pointing the antenna in various directions, and turning on the attenuator.
