Please update or submit if you find that any sites in the below systems have already transitioned away from EDACS over to the 1F8.92715 P25 system. There is already a long thread HERE for P25 sites and TDMA control channels that are being found nationwide for this system, so that discussion should remain there. I just want to update the three systems below by marking as deprecated the EDACS sites that are confirmed to no longer be on the air:

AEP South Texas
AEP West Texas
AEP ArkLaTex

This should clean up the database quite a bit for those who keep up with their local power companies.

The only EDACS site I have heard in recent weeks in South Texas is site 19 in Barksdale on 854.3875, LCN 1.

Updated the systems again. For AEP STX, The eastern sites in Columbus, Gonzales and Francitas need to be confirmed if on the air or not. I can confirm that the Barksdale site in Real County is still hanging on in isolated mode but still on the air. I think its a matter of time before it and Rocksprings pop up P25 since Uvalde and Junction (both along US83) surround them. There is also Los Fresnos in Cameron County that needs to be checked.

I updated everything that has been confirmed migrated from Central Texas on the AEP WTX system as well.
