I'm scanning sites around Knoxville, but I don't see any new peers. Figured it might show up as a peer on Windrock, Sharps Ridge, or Greentop? I'm way too far away to actually pickup anything in Sweetwater directly.

That would be a TACN Site with antennas.

Living 100's of miles away I cannot see it but I can get the info for it.
It also looks like the rest of the TACN Sites that have been built I have been to.
Here is the Sweatwater Site information.

This works great, i copied my file for Maddisonville and changed the freqs to what you listed, and I can hear again...
Thank You
Seems a little odd to only have three frequencies on a TACN site <FCC Callsign WQLE432 (TENNESSEE, STATE OF (TACN))>. Also noticed that there are three different frequencies licensed to Monroe Co at the same Red Stag site <FCC Callsign WRJU408 (MONROE, COUNTY OF).

I suppose that both together complete the six pack?

Setup like most basic rural sites
Seems about right.

Small fill in sites are normally 3 platters 1 CC and 2 Platters 4 Talk Paths if more are needed then they can be added. It is just as easy to tell the site to only rebroadcast only Talkgroups that are Affiliated.
Yeah I thought the number of freqs was normal for a small TACN site, I just had never observed a split licensee in that manner. Of course, I don't think I've ever really paid attention to that either.

They area a lot more voice frequencies for the new Sweetwater site that have been submitted the submission has just not been approved yet
Sorry to change the subject, but would anyone know what 5530 is in Bradley County? It isn't listed in the current database. Thanks
Found it,
Sorry, I did the man look

So, any ideas what it is? It's not in the DB but I had a hit on it in early October when I was traveling thru the area. One hit by a suspected Cleveland PD user, not sure on the other user (both 'hits' were just 'Joins' observed in Unitrunker).
