I see the standalone sites are still in the database under Zone 1. In addition to 8VSB's observation of the switch the State's December site map also shows the simulcast online (except Cloverdale) and replacing the standalone sites.

Does anyone have a reason to not remove those listings?

I referred the 6 sites to site 5-041 but left the data alone for a while in case they are not all switched over yet...

How exactly do you "Check" for Control Channels, sites that are online, etc.? Do you hit the "Search" key and whichever 800 P25 Channels get traffic on them, that indicates a CC?

Just curious..

Looking at the 6/1/2017 ARMER status map, there appears to be a site at the St Louis County EOC building, a few miles west of the airport near US 53. Site number on the map is z5 site 52. I haven't been able to find any FCC licenses for that specific location.

Is anyone close by that can confirm?

I believe that is the case. Like the OP I have never found a license for it. I know it was one of the possible locations when they were working on fill in sites to improve the simulcast coverage. I have also never seen that site ID broadcast as a neighbor to the simulcast.

I'm guessing it's just an artifact of the process they follow to update the map and never got removed.

Going to Arrowhead?
