You should be mostly concerned about the green-shaded column in the corresponding tables on this page http://radioreference.com/modules.php?name=RR&ctid=2537
and they can all be in one bank.
The Green column represents the "repeater out" and the yellow column represents the "repeater in" for lack of a better explanation. That is, by me.
These are "conventional" frequencies that consist of older radios, especially portables, that each agency keeps active.
For the Alamo Heights TRS you would program the EDACS channels for site 012 on this page http://radioreference.com/modules.php?name=RR&sid=2345 and add the related talkgroups for Alamo Heights services.
The TRS radios are newer, more sophisticated, usually the car radios and dispatching equipment.
This could be done all on one bank:
Leave Channel 0 Blank
Program Channles 1,2,3 & 4 for Alamo Heights EDACS
(I prefer to ) Leave channel 5 blank
add the Windcrest and Alamo Heights Conventional frequencies on Channel 6 and up.

Alamo Heights, Windcrest
No go on Windcrest. Their PD is now using talkgroups on the San Antonio BLUE system.
Alamo Heights is still on the Live Oaks system, with a patch to the old VHF system for interops with Terrell Hills and Olmos Park.
Word on the street is that Alamo Heights will soon be dropping support to the VHF system.
Terrell Hills and Olmos Park arent happy, but they have been negotiating for over 2 1/2 years and they both knew this day was coming.
While we are on the topic of other agencies on the San Antonio Provoice System.....
I recently heard rumor that there are non public safety/municipal COMPANIES (read commercial) outfits leasing talkgroups on the system.
WTF????

Sorry to hear that. I cannot pick up Alamo Heights on the Live Oak System at my house. I live near the airport and the signal doesn't seem to make it. I can only hear them on VHF
