Where are the "West" sites?

Since SLU is on 151.325 @ Rocky Butte and Black Mtn, this 7.5kHz split will make for interesting coverage issues in the southern Salinas Valley.

I do believe it's on the west side of Fremont Peak above Salinas. Intended area of coverage is the Monterey Peninsula

The original "BEU" channel is now BEU EAST and BEU WEST.

It won't cover that far south the only south site is in Soledad Palo Escrito it won't cover that far past King City.

Yes they do have sites license on both sites on Fremont peak and Soledad but none are active only the Carmel Valley site in Carmel highlands. I was told by a fire captain few years back it was meant for schedule A local gov stations.
