Please explain different sites

Obviously, the RR database is wrong. So which of the 37 freqs. are on that one site? A Motorola system can have only 28 freqs. max., plus other freqs. for Intellirepeaters and simplex ops.

If there is only one site, why are there 3 locations; Gainsville, Hawthorne & High Springs listed under the county site, WPTC649 in the FCC database?
Perhaps they are Intellirepeaters - we have 9 of them, plus 5 Simulcast sites in my city.

Strange doings down there in humidland.

Here is a link to the system - and it shows only 28 frequencies.... hmm

Maybe I need to plug them in, and find out which is the control channel from there.

AHA ! I think you have finally found the correct info. Also, I think you will find that there are 2 or possibly 3 Simulcast sites. Gainsville, High Springs and Hawthorne. But that won't matter to you since you are in Gainsville.

I still recommend you put in all the freqs. and don't worry about CC only. Then, if and when the CC changes you won't lose the system.
Have fun,

Suppose after you figure out the correct lineup and site information, you do submit it on the DB submission page. That way the next person won't be nearly as confused as you (and me for that matter.)

Well, I have the 28 frequencies that are listed on that other page, and it seems to be working fine.

I will submit them to the DB, but I'd also like to find out which is the control channel. How would I do this?

When the scanner is monitoring the system and there is no voice traffic, press HOLD. The frequency shown is the control channel freq (actually, you don't even have to press hold...the freq shows in the 3rd line).
