Google has a massive data center just south of Pryor, OK that is licensed for quite a number of frequencies - WQIR860.
It is a monster facility and it is growing even larger. I was heading to Tulsa this weekend from Joplin, so I took a bit of a detour for a few hours Friday and Saturday.
On Friday, just about all the frequencies were busy. Looks to be 2 linked DMR sites, one with Color Code 4 another with CC 7. I brought 3 TRX receivers, and several times I heard the same comms on 2 different frequencies, which turned out to be one on each color code, and thus on each site. No LCN info as Whistler does not have that as Uniden does.
Five of the 23 licensed frequencies NOT in use in this short period, and one more frequency being used in the system that is NOT on their license.
Seven Talkgroups were in found use, 6 of them in the 779#### series, and one more as long, beginning with a 6. The TGs were seen on both repeaters with the 2 color codes, and each TG was either a slot 1 or 2.
Several TGs were various security types, one with over 40 RIDs/UIDs, tho the numbering scheme of the RIDs makes one think there are over 500 radios. Other TGs were shuttles, and general operations. Nothing very exciting or “Googlish” – there were no chats about RAM or hard drives etc. ☹
I have attached my spreadsheetin Pdf form with all the TGs and RIDs because I can't figure how to make a table in the forum, not post the underlying spreadsheet! If anyone has anything to add let me know before I submit.
(GooPry# means Google at Pryor with a number from 1-23 of the licensed frequencies in ascending order)
