Have you made a guess as to what that 65536 TG is assigned to? EMS, PD or FD?
From what I've read, the 65xxx are patches for clmrn when radios lose connectivity to the towers.

I don't hear any voice though so I'm not really sure. Might just be radios connecting and leaving when they get service from other towers on clmrn

Edit: here's a picture of what I have so far. It's not much :D Screenshot

Ok on all. Thanks for the report. I’ll do the same after some programming...
I'm trying to setup unitrunker v2 and see if it's any better but i can't get it. But I have my scanner running the system also.

The following believed to be from Marcus Communication;

“Windsor is still on their old system, they are having trouble getting up and running on the new frequencys because of interference from West Springfield..”

So, it looks as if the thread is a tad bit premature. Still nice to know however. I appreciate the notification.
One observation I made is when RR first listed the system they only included the control channel. Today when I looked there was a second frequency listed. That’s not to say all assigned frequencies were not available to see elsewhere. Those were just the only ones listed within the automatic download I see when using the Butel ARC software. But since both Sentinel and ARC take their data from RR, why shouldn’t it be identical?

I had a feeling they weren’t using the new system yet. Not sure how they have interference, I didn’t hear anything on there system all day - but I don’t know systems. Do you have a source ?

P25 TRS not the DMR
TGID 911 & 912 logged with affiliation only.
65536 is CWID

Not sure what West Springfield would be using that would be interfering with 700MHz channels. They are UHF P25 now.

They are licensed for 4 frequencies, 3 have been logged so far, 1 CC, 1 SCC, and 1 CWID.

No. But that doesn’t mean oneI recall an issue in my town (Farmington, Ct.). We were getting interference on our VHF High band repeater systems. Turns out our license was filed in such to use frequencies closer than accepted spacing allows. And when AMR Ambulance put up a transmitter in Worcester, Ma., on a too close to ours frequency, it caused interference. We lucked out because AMR was using a directional antenna and the repositioning of it was all that was necessary to drop the signal strength down below our normal noise floor.

No mention of system that may be interfering. I did not write the post, just passed it along. But the mention of West Springfield did not relate to the municipality of West Springfield. I read it to mean interference coming from a system in or near West Springfield. I looked at the municipality of W. Springfield and didn’t see any 700 MHz frequencies but I did not check other systems that may be commercial, or state and federal pools.

Talkgroup 912 seems to be somewhat active right now if anyone can listen. There are some encrypted comms with it, but mostly clear.

I've also updated the wiki with the talkgroups that have shown up.
