I have been having trouble receiving it and the Scenery Hill here in Washington. But get the Allegheny Simulcast quite well. Might be something going on with the 2 Washington County towers. I am going to hold on the 2 county sites tonight or tomorrow and log anything I get.

Buckingham (1.89) in central Bucks Co is showing up in the Devault neighbor list as online today. I am unable to copy it from my location.

Interesting, :D
I would expect Belmont PHIL02 1.91 to be online before Buckingham BUCK33 1.89. (Not to mention Willow Grove MONY02 1.82)
I only suspect that because they seem to be hot ;) on getting full coverage end to end on the turnpike before the rest of SE PA.
And before the rest of SE PA happens I'd expect to see those Central PA 800 Sites (including Chester Co/part of troop J), and the Connellsville FAYE60 1.66 NTIA site.. :unsure:
But I'm just thinking out loud. :D

What are frequencies that Lehigh, Northampton and Monroe Counties PA State Police are using if they are on this new system. I’m looking to purchase a Uniden BCD536HP maybe this early spring or early summer of 2019 and would be great to hear the PSP again since they dumped OpenSky Network. Also if u know any other PA State Police counties I can pick up from Easton,PA please post. Thanks so much

Unfortunately you will not be able to hear PSP on the new system because they are 100% encrypted.

I'm perplexed by the changing NACs. But, it is not critical info for listening, so we'll just have to keep updating info as it comes in.

Anybody see anything new in the Harrisburg area with today's inauguration events?

Do the neighbor lists update as the bands change? I'm asking because for the last 2 days the 2m amateur band has been open to Ohio, and I just checked on the Seneca site and its no longer showing site 19 as a neighbor. Just wondering if they can hear each other on RF and change with the band conditions?

Unfortunately, inaccurate NAC's can negatively affect SDS100 (and eventually SDS200) users, as the NAC is now part of the Sentinel database import. If the NAC is incorrect in the RRDB, users are not going to hear any traffic at that site. When in doubt, leave it out...that will put the scanner into NAC search mode.

No, the adjacent site lists are manually maintained. The only automatic changes are to the status, i.e. if a site is no longer in wide area mode, that status will be announced to discourage radios from trying to register at that site. Note that some software such as Unitrunker may simply no longer display the site at all in the Peers list. Other software will display the status as FAILED and/or NOT CONNECTED or similar terminology.

Technically, (using an SDS100/200) the best way to figure out if they are correct is to leave the value set.
Then; in the SDS profile setting, (Misc tab) "Site NAC Operation" set to "Ignore Site NAC", If it is wrong you'll see the correct value flash when on that site's CC next to the incorrectly programmed NAC. Then correct your programming and submit the correct NAC for everybody else's benefit. :)

When I said "When in doubt, leave it out" I was referring to the admins adding the NAC to the site in the database.

Your method is fine for users who are well versed in the operation of the SDS scanners and know what they're looking for, however it doesn't do any good for those who are simply scanning the full database directly from Sentinel, i.e. those who don't have customized Favorites lists. Anyone scanning the full database with an incorrect NAC assigned to a P25 site is not going to hear a peep, which is the issue with potentially having the NAC wrong in the RRDB.

That would be a negative..... It actually takes entering the "neighbors list" per RF site into the server and pushing out the update to the site controller(s). So a neighbor list could theoretically change every few minutes if u have a system admin thats playing with the scanner folks.....
