SL Simulcast now has 24 frequencies

[N7YUO]

I had to adjust the Unitrunker screen again so it would display all of the site 3 active frequencies.
A check of the RRDB shows 19 freqs listed, Unitrunker shows 24.
So I used the submission feature to add the 4 new freqs.
This is one busy site!

What is the current control channel?

 

[gldavis]

Primary control channel is 853.1125. alt channels can be 853.0875 and 853.5125. This is for Utah Communications Agency Motorola 7202 . Site 3.
I'm still showing the original 19 channels, but,,,,, there are going to be changes to this system and these sites. We gotta go back to paying attention to what is happening.

 

[bhall7]

Due to my location and the surrounding geography, I'm not able to receive this site. I can hear some of the voice channels very faintly, but that's about it.

 

[gldavis]

Can you hear one of its (Site-3) Peers? Site-2 (Davis Co Simo), Site-6 (Promontory Peak), Site-11 (Nelson Peak), Site-13 (Parleys Canyon), Site-18 (Lake IR), Site-25 (Scotts Peak), or Site-36 (Cliff Lodge).

 

[bhall7]

Yes, I can pick up Nelson Peak and others without any problem.

This morning (around 05:30) the control channel switched to 853.0875 (was 853.1125, for a long time).

I have problems with UT adding freq's if a roaming radio comes onto the simo it's monitoring. I always check the channels tab for the site to see if it populates more than just one or 2 radios over a week or so. If it does not then I delete the freq from the channels tab for the site and try again.

Most of the time they never come back. FYI - your mileage may vary.

 

[gldavis]

"your mileage may vary". Boy,,, ain't that the truth. I still only show the original 19 channels. Yesterday I deleted all the channels for this site, from my Unitrunker list. Ran yesterday, last night. Still show 19. I will let it collect for a week, and see.

 

[N7YUO]

I just checked the channels tab in Unitrunker,
Each of the 4 new freqs only show 1 hit.
The next lowest number is 305 hits on 857.4625.
So I am deleting those four new freqs.

I got the submission and added the 4 frequencies before reading this thread. Let me know if it should be changed back or if any other changes are needed. -Tim

 

[theaton]

Also, 19 + 4 = 23, not 24. Currently 23 frequencies are listed.

It was a test of your counting ability. I am proud to say, You Passed.

Sadly I failed

Sometime I find that unitrunker will mis-hear the control channel and the peers’ frequencies end up being the site frequencies

 

[theaton]

Of the four frequencies added to SL Simulcast, 853.6625 is shared by four other sites around the state, but the other three (856.3125, 856.6125, and 866.3625) are currently unique to SL Simulcast.

 

[bhall7]

I've also noticed that Unitrunker will see the primary data channel and secondary data channels both as 853.3625 for UT Co (the primary is 852.6625). I'm not sure why this happens, but it appears to incorrectly interpret what the actual frequency is in the main activity window, even though the receiver is parked on the primary CC.

 

[gldavis]

About every six months (give or take) I try to clear the channel info. I have noticed, not quite accurate information sneaking in, on occasion.

 

[bhall7]

How do you do that without wiping out all of your TGs?
