I noticed that Airlife has a bunch of new narrowband licenses:

FCC Callsign WQJN564 Details

Specifically, it looks like narrowband repeaters in Uvalde, Kerrville, New Braunfels, and San Antonio. Anyone know of any specific changes coming up and what the plans are?

Maybe AirLife is trying to improve radio coverage with flightcom?
Good find, I'm going to program the frequencies in and listen and see whats up.

Do you guys know what they are using these repeaters for? Are they dispatching Airlife calls or using them for routine comms such as status and enroute ops.?

I didn't hear a dispatch, I just heard an update with flightcom (the typical weight, coordinates, etc.).

Tonight I confirmed the San Antonio Repeater, 159.9250MHz with a CT of 107.2. Only caught a snippet of a report to the comm center, said they had an "LZ at 'Koehler Field.'" Searched the internets wide and far for a "Koehler Field" but couldn't come up with anything...
