CC has flipped to 853.3375. Not all freqs are back in use. Astro tests of chs 4,6,8,10,11 complete. This may be the new alt CC. Still testing channels.

They flipped back to the original CC about ten PM last night and have been there ever since. Seeing most channels now.

How about a rundown on the voice frequencies when you have the chance? We pretty much know what they should be, but it would be nice to see verification.

Now that the dust has settled a bit I monitored overnight and came up with this.

Ut County Frequencies
Tim
Please accept my apology. Tonight I have been trying to resolve some possible discrepancies w/ the Ut County frequencies. I had hoped to reach some resolution before you changed the DB.
As it turns out the issues are pretty minor, but I would like some opinions on what is going on.
1. Junior1970 noted that testing had proceeded up to channel 11. This would imply at least 11 frequencies. My previous post showed only 10, and 1 of them had an unusually low hit count compared to the others.
2. When I took the screen print of the 'calls' from UniTrunker, every frequency was busy except the one with the low hit count. The system seems to be at max capacity 1 day after rebanding!
3. I thought that maybe some of the channels were still not online, especially given that they were having some trouble the night before.
4. I checked the FCC database and identified the call sign being used - WPRS306. I expected to find some additional frequencies that were not yet online, thinking we should consider including them in the DB update.
5. I did find 11 frequencies, as indicated by JR, but they did not exactly match my Unitrunker screens. I deleted all freqs from UT so they would be re-detected and left it running overnight again. This time I got 13 frequencies. 4 had unusually low hit counts. One of those had only 1 hit and was not listed on the FCC license, so I considered it an anomoly and removed it. That still leaves 12.
6. 852.1125, 852.7500, & 852.9500 show up on UT, but are not on the FCC permit. 2 of them have low hit counts, so maybe a data error by my radio or some other anomoly ??. One hit I could believe data error, but 4 or 5 hits w/ the exact same error ?? Then there is still 852.9500 with thousands of hits a day, and not even on the license.
7. 852.6625 & 852.9625 are on the license, but are apparently not being used. If the system is running near max capacity, why not use all the channels? I can imagine 'borrowing' a couple extra freqs in a pinch until they can be applied for and issued, but why not use all the ones already on the license before doing that?
It's really no big deal. I just thought I would find some rhyme or reason if I looked hard enough. I think it's OK to enter what we know for now and see what shakes out in the next month or so. Attached are the screens from UT and the FCC permit.
ALSO, Tim- The note for this site in the DB says 'located at the County Jail', which is obviously only partially correct, since there are 4 sites. Or does that mean that the dispatch center is at the Jail? That would be correct.

Sorry if I jumped the gun on you bchris. It looked like you had things 95% resolved.
Good work! Just let me know of any frequencies to add or delete. I removed the "jail" and added "similcast" when I made the update.

Yesterday afternoon UC Simo changed to CC 852.6675. Someone with Trunker/UniTrunker should run it again. This will make three channels for data since this thing rebanded. Mainly to get the final verdict on the alt CC. It has been on the above CC ever since.

The CC changed 10 to 15 times yesterday. After awhile of it i put all 3 in bank for my PCR1500. I ran for years and years without ever changing them back and forth.
I did hear UCAN talking about it. Utah County area have been having issues since Friday.
Today I think they found the issue at the BYU site.
Long sorty but all simo sites have 4-data channels. Only one is ever sent out as a backup.
I have got all four in Unitrunker. UCAN guys said yesterday they switched data channel back the way they had it before rebanding.
So in "UCAN channels's" 1-4 are data or backup. But only two are sent out.
--Sorry I have been following the rebanding stuff pretty close for the last month--
852.6625 D
852.6375 AD
and for the really anal. ( me )
853.3375 AD
853.3625 AD

Okay, I set 852.6625 as Ctrl and 852.6375 as Alt. Let me know if any voice channels need to be added or deleted.
Junior1970, I assume you meant 852.6625 rather than 852.6675 since 852.6675 isn't on the license (those 4-digit decimals drive me nuts too!).
