Chester Co Business Listings

[HM1529]

I have some questions for folks about the Chester Co business listings. I'm in the process of building out a separate businesses page for the county given the number of entries that have been added to the main DB page. There is some ambiguity I'm looking to clear up.

For the A Duie Pyle DMR frequency previously reported in the DB, does anyone know if that is being used at the West Chester facilities or the Parkesburg facilities? The FCC license covers both locations.

For the Target listing, does anyone know which store that is supposedly for? There are no FCC licenses in the county for the three Target stores and the current info in the DB does not distinguish which store the freqs are for.

There are also some listings that seem a bit long in the tooth...Broodmare Vet and Schagrin Gas on lowband. Looking for some confirmation that some of the existing older listings are still in use and should be moved instead of deleted.

Broodmare is still active, I hear them occasionally.

I don't think CTCO (now Frontier) is active anymore. I don't think I've ever heard them..
Same for PECO.

The Herrs DMR is active.

I'll give Tasty Baking (Flowers) & Scotts a listen, haven't tried them in a while..

Flowers is alive and active, just caught some traffic.. The locals still call it the Tasty Cake plant despite the changing of hands..

Surprisingly enough, I did get a hit on one of those PECO UHF's a number of years ago. Seemed they were using UHF handhelds with maybe a DVRS setup to be able to talk through the truck out to the system while up in the buckets. This was after they had migrated to the encrypted TRS, so it surprised me to hear traffic. Honestly, that's been more than five years now (my, how time flies). That was a line crew in Montgomery Co. I have not had those UHF's in the scan rotation in a long time, though. Didn't really seem worth it given that you basically had to be on top of a crew to hear anything.

I can verify that Scotts is still active.

Schagrin Gas can go.

PECO in SE Chester has been observed to have APX mobiles and portables.
