Picking up a new control on frequency 851.6125 (On database listed as under troop C system). I live on the coast in Monmouth, and normally can only get the C system if I have my 8 element yagi pointed at the telegraph hill tower, but with this new control channel I picked up this morning by accident I can get with my RS 800 MHz antenna still showing 93% signal strength. I don't know too much about trunked systems, but to me all evidence points that this signal is coming in from much closer than telegraph hill.
Could this be a new "Eastern Monmouth" site going up? This would make sense since coverage here is spotty. The new 851.6125cc seems to turn on and off. I put it in a new bank of its own on my pro2096 to experiment. Here is what I am getting:
cc shows B11E as identifier
tgs heard:
36592 - 4-COMM
53296 - GSP Holmdel
36784 - 10-COMM Marine
So far same voice channel for all - 852.7625
These tgs would make sense for an east monmouth system...
