My on,y confusion is on,y with why on tge new license that lists pats peak as using both 154.935 and 156.21. Why would that be? Tge Bedford site uses on,y 154.935, but pats peak has both 154.935 and 156.21 so that is where tge question lies. I thought 154.935 was on a repeater in Bedford and 156.21 is in Warner mt kearsarge. Also 154.935 is troop d and 156.21 is troop d. Why woukd that be intermixed? Is it cuz it’s hard to get 154.935 in areas in north Weare on the other side of the mountain? I don’t mean to be a pain, but I’ve known of this communication issue has been going on for 30 plus years. I’m just trying to figure out what frequency or frequencies to listen to that might be used if a call were to be dispatched to Weare? Tge new license that has 156.21 and 154.935 on the pats peak site is confusing. I get the part that troop b is troop b and troop d is troop d, but why then are the 2 frequencies together under the new license on top of pats peak?

Weare is Troop B, so you only will need Troop B Frequencies
Most likely because they plan to use transmitters on both frequencies from that location.
Again, most likely because they plan to use that site for transmitters for both frequencies from that location.
It is most likely because they've identified it as a spot that will add needed coverage. I doubt they would make that decision based on a portion of a single town.
As you have been told repeatedly... Troop B uses Troop B's frequency.

This. It's not unusual for sites to host multiple transmitters for different Troops. Just a few examples.
Warner Hill hosts A and B
Pack Monadnock hosts B and C
Pat's Peak hosts B and D
Moose Mountain hosts C and F-M
Belknap hosts D and E
It's all about operational needs, convenience for the dispatchers, and colocations of assets to provide the best bang for the taxpayer dollar. Do you realize how much it costs to build a radio site? How much to simulcast? We're talking tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands depending on what's needed.
FYI, all the stuff going to Pat's Peak was originally on the VA in Manchester until they had to move. That's why the B site in Bedford exists, and why Pat's Peak was an alternate location for the VA with a previous lease that was leveraged. All sites in B and D are selectable by dispatch based on the operational needs at the time.
Pretty sure this topic has been beat to death and would love a mod to close it.
