What are you using to listen? I'm on non affiliate scan, using all the settings verbatim from RRDB, silence. I can hear any other system around

Anyone able to hear anything on this system? I get nothing but silence.
Welcome to the RR forums. What scanner(s) is (are) you using to monitor? Were you able to pick up the system before? Providing specifics here on the forums goes a long way to help us help you troubleshoot. If monitoring with anything other than a Uniden SDS100 or SDS200 then simulcast distortion may be a possibility. But other possibilities may exist ranging from disabled service types to disabled quick keys or various programming errors.

I'm using a Motorola APX900 on the non affiliate scan (hidden talk groups) method. works perfect for every other system in my area, but for some reason I cannot get any traffic on this system.

Just something to check. Make sure the RFSS and site numbers are entered correctly, HEX vs decimal.

I should also add that I have tried listening from downtown Atlanta, Cobb County Area, and Cherokee County. Same Results

Interesting. In that case, clearly an issue with your radio or programming.

The tower is on top of 2 Peachtree Street downtown but covers the core of the metro well. I am currently listening on a handheld indoors in central DeKalb.

I assume you're using all the same settings listed on the database page right?

Yes. Working fine on my SDS100 scanner and also on my KNG2-P800 radios, programmed for RX Only (non-affiliate scan method not required since KNG radios can be programmed for true RX only, without the need to hack a system key, right from the factory).

What are you using for your FDMA/TDMA channel map?

Can anyone hear Georgia state patrol on these channels?

I have never heard GSP on the State of Georgia Atlanta P25 system. That's not the system GSP uses.

In metro Atlanta GSP uses a combination of the City of Atlanta P25 system, the Cobb system, and the Gwinnett system, (mostly) encrypted.
