I’ll be in Big Spring area at some point this week so I should be able to get a signal without too much trouble.

I wonder if Noodle was just turned on today. I should have been able to copy it yesterday when the band was open.
Possibly, it showed up outdated/isolated. I was typing fast earlier, Noodle is not confirmed yet, but showed up as a neighbor of Sweetwater and Snyder.

Okay, added Blackwell, Snyder and Sweetwater to the database just now. Morgan Creek Power Plant (Colorado City) and Gail haven't been turned on as of today and Noodle remains unconfirmed for the time being. I'll see if I can't find a reason to go check again sometime next week out that way and see if the last missing links are up. Did see a few talkgroups with voice activity on Big Spring's site today, 129 and 149. Not very much to hear yet.

So besides the I-30 sites in NETX, that would only leave Bastrop to go and check on, as well as making it back around over time to see if they fix the RFSS/Site mismatches in ETX that plague so many of the sites.

No surprise, they are probably focusing on WTX build out for now. Update us if it ever changes. I will be in Palestine for family Thanksgiving but my East Texas travels are limited now due to where I work at.

89.89 Gail, 137.137 Morgan Creek, and 147.147 Noodle all confirmed. With WTX built out, I updated the neighbor lists on everything from Acampo and Blackwell heading west.

Interesting probable error I found last week was that Pine Springs was now showing 25.25 as a neighbor instead of 23.23 (Barstow). 25.25 was showing 936.4125 as the active CC. 25.25 would be Bastrop in the alphabetical numbering scheme they have set up, and that is a licensed frequency at that site. This should mean that Bastrop is on now. Not sure why it is being broadcast as a neighbor to Pine Springs other than programming error.

Here is what is left.

These appear as neighbors and need to be confirmed.
The NACs are predicted based on site numbering and not confirmed.
SiteID Control NAC City (County) Callsign
45.45 937.400 037 Caddo Mills (Hunt) WNZH952
63.63 938.4625 049 Commerce (Hunt) WNZH956
91.91 938.4625 065 Gainesville/Collinsville (Cooke) WNZH956
159.159 938.9375 0A9 Sulphur Springs? WNZH947
197.197 938.4125 0CF Sweetwater (Nolan) WNZS478
225.225 935.500 0EB Windom/Honey Grove (Fannin) WNZH955

These may or may not be online by now and need to be confirmed.
SiteID City (County) Callsign
25.25? Bastrop/Elgin (Bastrop) WPKX933
53.53? Clarksville/Vandalia (Red River) WNZH955
135.135? Mount Pleasant/Monticello? (Titus) WPGJ617
159.159? Paris (Lamar) WNZH955
175.175? Rivercrest/Bogata (Red River) WNZH955

These are the weird sites with RFSS and Site Number that don't match.
Somebody should see if they are still the same.
SiteID City (County)
103-093 Gatesville (Coryell)
109-099 Groesbeck (Limestone)
133-123 Lufkin (Angelina)
195-185 Slocum Anderson
203-193 Styx/Kemp (Kaufman)
217-207 Tyler (Smith)
219-209 Van/Ben Wheeler (Van Zandt)
239-229 Zavalla (Angelina)

There is a second site licensed at Glen Rose/Comanche Peak that needs to be confirmed.

Site 55.55 Cleburne may have the wrong NAC in the database.
It says 145 which doesn't match the scheme but I got 041 one time which does match and don't know if that was correct.

There is probably at least one SOW or temporary repeater and probably at least 4 simplex talkaround channels.

I confirmed Sweetwater last week and added it.

I just went back and looked at my captured data from when I originally logged it in DSDPlus, and the NAC is 041, so the RRDB entry is incorrect and needs to be corrected.

Here are some more that need attention.
49.49 Cedar Hill - confirm NAC is really 038. It should be 03B according to their numbering scheme.
81.81 Brownsboro - NAC missing
217.207 Tyler - NAC missing

Cedar Hill should be 03B, based on my capture.

I went back to the submissions that I made to RRDB, and it was submitted as 03B. I can't say the same for Cleburne, that mistake was mine.

Submitting both for corrections.

I'm out by Orla and can receive Pine Springs again today. It is still erroneously reporting 25.25 Bastrop as a neighbor, but the reported CC is now 937.650 which is another licensed Bastrop frequency. Pretty sure its online if someone in the Austin area can tune to it. It should be pretty strong in Austin but they probably will fight a lot of LCRA OpenSky sites on band openings.

Did you pickup the Orla GATRRS site?
