United Airlines at Newark Radio Reference Data does not match Sentinel listed data

[hh65flier]

Newbie here...so please be patient with my lack of familiarity with some of the lingo here.

I'm trying to load up the latest "trunked" data for United Airlines operations at Newark (EWR) which is in Essex County, NJ. Radio Reference lists data for "United Airlines DT3" system. This is a "DMR Tier 3 Capacity Max" system that appears to have been updated VERY recently; January 1, 2025. The NEWARK portion of this database shows a "Color Code" of 0.

The Sentinel software (I have the most recent version) shows the same 900MHZ frequencies as Radio Reference, but the "Color Codes" are all 1. And the corresponding "LCN's" are all different.

So...I have manually entered the Radio Reference freqs, LCN's, and Color Codes into my SMS-100 (I bought the optional DMR upgrade a few months ago).

Can anyone explain the difference in data supplied by RR and Sentinel? Is the RR data so recent (only 2 days old now) that it just hasn't been updated into Sentinel yet?

Thanks to anyone who read this far and knows what I'm talking about.

YES...the Sentinel updates are pushed out most Monday mornings...so 2 day old iinfo would not be included in last week's Sentinel.

UAL ops at EWR have moved from a Connect Plus system to a Capacity Max system. The frequencies and talkgroup IDs are the same, but they are separate listings in the RRDB. The one that is currently in Sentinel is no longer valid. You'll have to wait until Monday to download the updated system.
