I can not pick up the Everett site. I get no signal at all. I am just north of Everett. I can pick up the King County simulcast, King Lake site & Devils mountain Site just fine.

The site is located at WSDOT's facility on Chestnut between 20th and 21st streets, 7 or so blocks west of the Marine View Dr. onramp to SB I-5. Signal was strong when I passed by on the freeway last October. I presume you tried both the primary and secondary CC freqs for that site? Another site that I can pick up directly is showing this as a site on its neighbor list, so I can only assume that it's active and on the air.

I'm on the Oregon side and typically have good range to Cowlitz, Skamania and Columbia County (Oregon) but no dice so far.

Randy any chance we could sort the WSDOT entries by Site # instead of SysID? It's worked out OK for the most part, but as you can see, it's going to get messy over time. I think most people would want to find a particular site, no?

There is no for us to assign any type of sort factor when it comes to SysID's and SiteID's. In this specific system, yes it will probably get a little wonky.

Edit: I should have added that this is the case when there is different SysID's. If there was only 1 SysID, the sort display would probably be different.

I find it interesting that there are no repeaters anywhere close to the south east : Yakima, Benton, Franklin, Adams, Walla walla. The P25 is completely dark here in the tri-cities.

Stay tuned. There are a number of new sites in EWA that are not live yet. Probably later this summer or early fall.

thanks... there are some new sites that have been turned on lately in SE WA, such as sunnyside, jump off joe, richland, prescott. I can see the repeaters on my scanner but I've never heard anything so far.

They are still in the commissioning stages. There is some test traffic now, but full on testing will happen in a couple months with the intent on going live full time this fall.

Some quick research from the Spokane area. I’ll have to do some driving to get some more definitive answers.
Eastern WA area appears to be SysID of: 42

I have added the new sites. It is also very clear now that the SysID's match the 6 DOT regions. As such I changed the names of the SysID's to match the region names. We'll see if this pattern remains the same.

I’m currently in Wenatchee and I’ve recorded a lot of routine traffic out here. Sounds like they’ve made the cutover.

60210 is the Wenatchee dispatcher.

60211 Sounds like the main operations talk group for the area. Heard some cool traffic during a avalanche control blasting operation on Steven’s Pass yesterday. As well as a lot of other typical unit-unit conversations.

Also heard a little traffic on 60201 and 60209

Went out Sunday since it was such a great day and did some radio searching and got this... I heard another tower but couldn't decode it well enough so will have to go hunt for it here soon.
