We need more information, what’s the control channel, I assume the system id is 7202 and the site number, are u able to determine the site and system info?

All those freqs have been ID'ed with System 7202 (UCA) Site-31 (Delle). Control channel is 853.37500. And I have confirmed them with actual on-air reception.

How about this new UCA site! The Lat/Long coordinates take you to Cedar Mtn radio site 003-003 for Hill AFB/UTTR.
WQUV815 DUGWAY 27.3 KM NW OF DUGWAY, UT TOOELE County 40°22'07.4"N, 113°00'10.7"W
853.3750c 852.9500a 852.3375 852.6500

I'm getting really good at being stupid lately.
I added the c and a to those freqs, even though I haven't been near that site.
It's just the way that I added them to the frequency list that I copied from RR DB.

Now, looking at the map, Dugway (Cedar Mtn) and Delle (Black Mtn) are Approx. 40 miles apart, line of site.
In my opinion, two sites that close could only share the same freqs if they are simulcast,
Perhaps a trip to Terra is in order.

Way Up North
I was hoping to get indication of activity on this UCA site: WQXW712 RAFT RIVER MTS,
APPROX 10.3 KM SE OF STANDROD, UT BOX ELDER County 41°54'16.3"N, 113°23'20.3"W

I put my Unitrunker in a north facing window, and raised the gain from 300 to 500 on Cal Mtn.
It came right up, so I looked at the peers.
It already showed Weber, Cache, Promontory, Logan Pk, Howell & Hansel, It also showed Site 15.
That happens to be Snowville.
I'm surprised that it didn't show Lynn or Pilot Range, which are also in Box Elder County.
I'm going to keep trying every so often to see if more peers show up.
I wouldn't want to waste a road trip for a non-operational site.

I can't believe how much I am screwing up!
A re-check of the Delle/Dugway frequencies reveals this:
RR Database, Delle: __________852.3375 852.6500 852.9500 __________853.3750
FCC - ULS - - Delle: 851.9875 852.3375 852.6500 852.9500 852.9625 853.3750 859.6625
FCC - ULS Dugway: 851.2125 851.8375 852.2375 852.6000 853.1250
So, when I was copying & pasting, I must have grabbed the Delle freqs instead of freqs for Dugway.
Conclusion: UCA has a new site at Cedar Mtn, Dugway, and it is not the same as Delle.

Some of that is the same frequencies as Vernon hills, at least 3 of them, but Vernon hills has its own fcc license. I’ve got the frequencies programmed we will see what we get if I’m up there again, might be a while though, so someone else might beat me there

This makes me wonder about a Tooele County Simulcast? However nothing on that new UCA slide from the website mentions Tooele being involved as a Simulcast site yet
