LA Artcc changes

[E5911]

I live in Yuma and was having trouble receiving LA Center. Finally found out the Frequency for Sector 31 was wrong.
However as I was searching I found 2 others that I could not find listed and could be herd well in Yuma.

127.525
127.350

Any idea where these transmitters are located ?

RR shows 127.525 at two sites, Near Blythe and Julian CA. 127.35 at two sites, Cedar City UT and Nelson NV.

So, Sector 31 is not 126.775? What did you find it to be?
Perhaps submit that info to the DB Administrator.

There are LiveATC feeds that cover ZLA Sector 31 and some adjacent sectors, checking the archives from today and they confirm the published frequency 126.775 was in use. Are you saying you heard a different frequency being used in place of 126.775, or you just didn't hear the controller on 126.775 ? ZLA RR Page

126.775 is absolutely Sector 31.

127.525 is Sector 40. Covers from west of TRM/PSP to west of BLH. Handles LA basin departures and SAN arrivals/departures. It is often combined with Sector 60, which covers the PHX arrivals over BLH/SCOLE and flights east/SE.

127.35 is Sector 36. Covers basically the EED area and outward in all directions.

Want to be clear here, the incorrect Sector 31 Yuma Frequency was MINE, bad programming, I was off 5k, as for the other 2, I herd them from my house, the Blythe frequency I could hear controller and aircraft, the other, just the aircraft. But this is the first time in 30 years I herd another frequency for LA Center. I regularly search both VHF and UHF air bands for new hits and I have all the local frequencies programmed already.

I guess I was wondering, new site?, upgrade to existing site, more powerful transmitters,
BTW what is the ERP for most Zone transmitters changes and improvements?

There were some repairs recently on 126.77. The sites haven't changed on any of those frequencies. ERP should be right around 10w or so, maybe slightly higher.
