I added a few areas with freq's with name/county/state (there is no sites to it since it is unknown) with color should be about 9. I look in AL/FL to see any new license didn't see much expect for Gulf Cnty FL.
Is it possible this site 27 Greenville AL (Butler) ?

Always a possibility, but if you want my opnion I'm going to say no. I'm going to say Site 27 is more likely to be Tuskegee (Macon) and that Site 1 may be Ashland (Clay)
Again, that's based upon site information from neighboring sites. And of course, who knows how up to date the site neighbor information is for the neighboring sites.
But, you obviously have a notion that Site 27 might be Greenville, so maybe you can shed some light one why you think it might be. After all, there is no guarantee that anything I suggest is correct. Two heads going at this are always better than one.

I was looking at the map link you posted and I was looking around see what was the nearest or somewhere between the sites. I wonder if this is a 34 site system 11 for FL and 23 for AL?

Not sure if this is correct on 451.100 Color 3 & 451.200 Color 8 for Mexia AL. This came from some old notes I had.
Did some tweaks on both files. Last night bands were open I was able to get site 20 Color Code for the control channel.
During the night bands were open up and only time I hear any voices is during Mon-Fri if bands are open up. I updated site 20. Also I submitted the whole system yesterday just waiting on update from RRDB.
You've got a lot of valid information that should be in the DB in some way or another. But keep in mind that you shouldn't use anything I say (including my speculative map) to submit locations unless you are quite confident on your own about those locations. As was mentioned before, I've no capability to monitor any of the stuff direct but rather am just makign speculations based upon my mapping, FCC licenses, site neighbor lists, etc. And although that is very useful to do that, if I can't copy the sites myself then i would never suggest that any information i be used to confirm any site location. Of course, for things that you're pretty certain about you definitely should submit it. Ideally, some day there would be somebody in Western AL helping to sleuth out and confirm some of those sites there as well as the ones in Northern AL.

Early this morning bands were open up. I was hoping would got 1-2 new sites since it was I getting far as La & Miss and parts of Al. didn't see much new stuff expect lots of Cap+ systems. I was able to get Site 24 Site Neighbors on DSDPlus it was different from last time I saw site 24. I've updated the files. I wonder if it will storm by Fri (in my area) since bands were open up. Last week when bands were up open up Fri it stormed like crazy Sun night into Mon morning.
Most of last night into this morning bands were open not as strong as last week. I notice this morning on 451.200 it was showing Site 21 Color Code 6 that freq is not listed for s21. Also was getting a different color code on a site in FL not sure cause it is a weak signal. I am redoing my scan list for each county color 0-15 for each freq so I can lock out certain freq/control channel. I'm not sure if slot 1 color can be different on slot 2? I'm not sure how it works on a Con+ system.
Just remember that any time you change frequency, you should press "d" in DSDPlus to disregard any previous information that it had captured from a previous control channel. If one is tuning to various control channels during a session, it's not uncommon for DSDPlus to sometimes end up showing data at the bottom left of the main screen that isn't pertinent to the current frequency being monitored. You always want to clear out the old info by pressing "d" when you tune to a new channel. I'm not saying that was the issue here or the reason why 451.200 showed site 21, but it very well could have been.

Yesterday I redid my scan list on the sds200 and had some notes what freq(s) needed to be locked out was getting more chatter from Cap+ vs Con+. Before I left for work I decide to scan and put on record and I came home sometime after 130am and notice a new site showed up on PowerSouth side. I updated site 31 to my files. I'm not sure if 461.800 is a Control Channel it came up with Color 0.
I got home after work and I was getting site 31 again. I got lucky enough to get site neighbors and control channel. After I got the site neighobrs the control channel went silent for the night 
I'll also submit it to RRDB.
I'll also submit it to RRDB.
Hmm Site 31 Billingsley lists 6, 9, 12, 13 and 30 as neighbors? If so, it's listing Graceville (12) as a neighbor. That seems odd since Victoria is site 25 and is closer to BIllingsley than Graceville. Maybe Graceville isn't site 12 hmm. Of course, one can never totally trust neighbor lists to be up to date and accurate. Clearly Billingsley is the only site licensed for 461.800, so I'm sure you are right about that.

I was thinking of site 12 may not be correct myself. I noticed that while I updating my list. I was hoping the bands stayed open all night. Than again 451.600 I only see 2 listed 1 for Graceville FL and Tuskegee AL. I know years ago when I saw site 12 those site neighbors listed popped in DSDPlus with those numbers.
Appears Gulf Cnty FL site 34 showed up this morning.
I drove to Gulf County this morning and got the site neighbor. I didn't pick up nothing in Escambia Cnty FL by the Blue Wahoos Baseball Grounds. I was hoping something popped up there.
I haven't go much open bands since mid May. I don't see nothing on the new 800mhz side.
