Go to google.com, click on maps at the top, type in your coords in this format: 29 29 37n 98 32 53.7w and it plots it on the map for you.

Site 1 - 6890 I-10 Frontage Road. Appears to be a VIA Park-N-Ride location.

Site 2 - 3215 N. Western. Also looks like a Park-N-Ride.

Site 3 - 7400 Merton Minter. Near a bus stop between the VA Med Center and UT Health Science Center.

Site 4 - 2600 Westward Drive. I'm guessing these coordinates are slightly off - there is a Park-N-Ride directly South of the GPS location, on the Hwy 90 Access Road that is probably the actual location.

Site 5 - 210 Chestnut. Not sure about this one.

Site 6 - 5030 Sherri Ann Road. Looks like another Park-N-Ride.

Site 7 - 7400 San Pedro.

Site 8 - 2310 SW Military Drive. Right in the center of whatever the mall is at SW Military/I-35/Zarzamora...

Hard to pick and hear sometimes since it is patched from the 800 system I have found. The are pretty quiet also, The PD talkgroup sometimes has some good stuff, fights on a bus, homeless causing problems on a bus etc.... but they are kinda quiet also.
