Odd that they would change from a dpl to a pl (203.5), but did they change their INPUT FREQUENCY as well??

Thanks for the info, I've updated the tone data in the Radio Reference database.

KCN544. The wrong callsign was in the database and I just updated it. BTW, 157.6575 mobiles are on that same license with a 16 km radius of Chicago Union Station.

Thanks -my bad, skipped right over it in the FCC ULS Search
and all my trips to Chicago never caught them, but then so used to 161.2950 being Amtrak PD out this way

This repeater isn't very busy (at least today it isn't). I has to listen for an hour or so in order to confirm the new PL tone posted above before updating the database.

Would explain why I've stopped hearing them on my trips up there.

This reminds me that I need to verify the Amtrak Police frequencies down here in Indy. I don't think I've ever heard traffic on them.

Even the North East Corridor 161.295 is sometimes very quiet, used to hear Philly Desk key up all of the Repeaters (Nice Hetrodyne)
now they select individually, not sure if it is due to less officers, like occured in the 90's or just reliance on their access to state systems for running NCIC queries.
