Maybe someone here can help me with this since my submission was rejected and I still think something strange is happening with this and hope to understand it better than just getting a rejection and giving up. The system I'm talking about is this one:
KELCOM (900 MHz) Trunking System, Windsor, Ontario - Scanner Frequencies
A Motorola Type II Smartnet 900MHz system. It lists a bunch of 900mhz frequencies there including some CCs.
Well, last night I hooked the scanner to unitrunker with that system in it and ran it. What it showed me was that I was missing 6 more frequencies for the system and the CC. It kept saying 'find missing frequency' next to what it believed was the correct CC. Why would it do this and come up with this if I only gave it the 900mhz frequencies listed on RR, unless it was getting this info from the signal coming in?
So then I hooked it to trunker88 and it slowly, one after another in auto detect mode, came up with the 6 missing frequencies, one of which being the missing CC with the same LCN that unitrunker said it belonged to. It never came up with any of the 900mhz frequencies. Also the same casino tgid's were coming up on the screen, so it was reading the casino using just those 6 frequencies.
Then I went back to unitrunker and filled in those missing 6 to the site frequencies, and then it came up with a bandplan for this system. I attached a screen cap of the channels listed where you can see the 900mhz ones from RR listed then the 6 at the bottom that were found and added. Also attached in the image the bandplan it came up with. The hits are low since I just started it when that cap was taken, but I ran it all night and still none of the 900mhz frequencies have any hits, there are around 500-600 hits on each of the new 800mhz frequencies, except the CC.
At industry canada it shows these 800mhz ones are registered to telus. So I'm wondering what is going on here? Other than just being rejected I hope someone can explain a bit more why unitrunker told me I was missing 6 frequencies for this system, then trunker88 found them. I know in the past the casino had trouble with radios in the building on an old system they were on. Could it be they are using these other frequencies in combination with the 900mhz ones to better communicate in that huge building? I don't know, just looking for some answers so I can better understand and learn, instead of just giving up.
The thing is, my scanner was still picking up tgid's and communication with the 900mhz frequencies from RR I linked to above. Yet both unitrunker and trunk88 felt like these other 6 800mhz frequencies were more connected to the system. I don't know if I have two different systems here or one. All along, only the casino tgid's have come up. Even when I look at the site in unitrunker live when the tgid's pop up next to the frequencies, they pop up only next to the 6 800mhz ones, not the 900mhz ones. Can you see why I'm so confused? The casino isn't the only one using this system also, as you can see from the link.
