Fire Station Numbering Deleted

I saw that the Clinton County and Howard County Fire Station Number lists were deleted for Clinton and Howard Counties.

I liked being able to look and see what stations were responding, just wonder what the point of this is.

Most likely has been moved to the Wiki

Clinton County (IN) - The RadioReference Wiki
Howard County (IN) - The RadioReference Wiki

Correct, all data of that type is going to the Wiki.

Why can't I find my (xxxxx) data?

Sorry...I don't like it. I'll give it the benefit of the doubt and give it time to get used to it, but I don't like it now. I like it in that counties DB. I also do not like the idea of anyone being able to change it. There are many out there that do not verify the info is correct. Whereas when it could only be done by an admin, it was more likely to be correct.

I second you ScanNEIN I think it is a poor decision but hey it's not my website so what do I know.

I like it on the county page so if I'm on the road I can quickly take the freq's load them and figure out what units are on there way. Put a link on the county page to the wiki info.

before anyone says that it's illegial to have the scanner in the car (I'm a ham W9WXW).

The information can be reached on each county's page. Click on the Collaborate button on the left of the page.
