Update! Westchester County Trunked System

[SteveOFD 176]

For those of you who may not be hearing the System utilizing the South Zone Towers, the two new frequencies mentioned in this thread, 470.2000Mhz & 478.3125Mhz are now in use for the South Zone. Today, these two freq's have been flip flopping as the primary and secondary freq's on this Zone. Previously, 476.0750Mhz seemed to be the primary freq used. So, if you have not programmed these you have probably not heard anything today.

To receive the South Zone correctly you now MUST have two custom tables for the bank you have programmed the South Zone frequencies in to. The custom tables listed in RadioReference.com work correctly.

With the addition of these two freq's, both zones now have five voice channels.

Short and sweet: add 470.2000Mhz & 478.3125Mhz to the bank that you have for the South Zone (476.0750, 476.1125, 476.2125, 476.2375). Then add the following to create a second custom table for the South Zone (470.0 Base, 12.5 Spacing, 380 Offset). You should already have 476.0 Base, 12.5 Spacing, 520 Offset for the South Zone already.

For more details see post #57 for Radio Shack programming or for Uniden software programming. On the link for the Uniden scanners click on the page to see it full size.

I will be online tonight to help with this issue.

Radioreference currently reads:

Add 470.20000 and 478.3125 as additional frequencies so it read's out as:

Hope it's a little easier to understand.

Correct, (but) an additional custom table also needs to be added to the South Zone Bank. If not, the scanner will not be able to track 470.2000Mhz because it is in the "TV channel 14" frequency allocation of 470-476Mhz, whereas the existing freq's 476.xxxx & 478.3125Mhz are in the "TV channel 15" frequency allocation range 476-482Mhz (see thread) which uses the custom table you already have for the South Zone.
