Dave, et al,
I think you are right about Site 26 / Site 29
Site 26
- based upon frequencies (463.2125 / 463.4625)
- based upon site neighbors (10 / 13 / 14 / 29 / 33) New Castle sites smack dab in middle of them
Site 29 is Connersville
- process of elimination - 463.9625 is only licensed to New Castle and Connersville
- based upon site neighbors (13 / 21 / 26 / 30 / 33) Connersville sits in the middle of them
The conundrum:
Mishawaka / Granger - Four licenses - all with the same physical location
- license address: 4 km S of Int SR 23 and Adams Rd
- license city: one says Granger, 3 say Mishawaka
- FCC ASR database shows same location for all four licenses (12990 SR 23, Granger, IN)
Yet, there is a MIshawaka in the DB and a Granger in the DB.
- Site 18 Mishawaka would be correct (based upon neighbors reporting site 18 as a neighbor)
- Site 21 Granger would not be correct (but its listed because 461.65 is only licensed to ERS at Granger)
The only site (per DB) that we know which lists Site 21 as a neighbor is Site 29 Connersville (463.9625). Granger is a long way from Connersville, way to far to be a neighbor.
So there are discrepencies between Site 18 / Site 21. And the question of Site 21 being a neighbor of Site 29 Connersville even though Site 21 Granger is too far away. It could be a programming mistake. It could be a copying mistake / a mistake writing down info for 461.65. If Site 29 and Site 18 were online before all of the other sites in between them, then they could have been neighbors at some point in the past.
Either Site 21 isn't Granger, or Site 29 is erroneously reporting Site 21 _as_ a neighbor, or 461.65 is not the actual frequency that was copied as broadcasting a site ID of 21, or ERS is using somebody else's license down somewhere surrounding Connersville for 461.65 Site 21.
Another note: Site 20
Site 20 isn't listed in the DB, but it is listed as a neighbor of Sites 7, 15, 22 and 34. That would suggest that Site 20 is going to be one of the following: Indianapolis (High School Rd), Bloomington, Bedford, French Lick, Borden or Columbus.
Sure would help if somebody could get a site neighor listing from Sites 25 (Floyds Knob), 28 (North Vernon), 30 (Greensburg) .
My Map:
https://goo.gl/2EiCzS
- does not jive completely with the RRDB currently
- red sites with a * suggest that I have a higher confidence of their location
- red balloons suggest I don't have quite as much confidence in them yet
- there are sites in the DB totally missing from the map (since locations of those sites aren't known yet)
- 19 could be Lafayette or Indianapolis (High School Rd) but probably is Lafayette
- 19 probably Lafayette right because site 15 and site 34 report is at a neighbor
- 1 could be ligonier, evansville or lafayette per FCC licensing
- but we already know evansville; lafayette is likely 19, and ligionier would be the other choice
- plus during tropo I copied Site 1. I often copy into NW Ohio during tropo and Ligonier is not out of the question
- but it is unlikely that I would have copied lafayette during tropo without copying a slew of other sites in between
So although my map suggests my doubts about Lafayette and Ligonier, I believe they are correct.
If the map isn't useful to you, just forget about the link
