Hi Folks,
For those of you within the Appalachian Power footprint, be aware that AEP (who owns Appalachian Power) is upgrading their EDACS system to P25. They have built out most if not all of Ohio by now, and they are already working on West Virginia.
I'd like to encourage people within the Appalachian Power service area to review the AEP map below (enable WV in the legend if the blue dots aren't showing up).
The blue dots are all Appalachian Power locations with FCC licenses. Most of them will either be active EDACS sites or P25 sites, or a combination thereof. You can click on the blue dots to get site location information, callsign information and frequency information.
If you have access to DSDPlus, Pro96Com, or Unitrunker and can search 854-862 mhz for any P25 control channels with a WACN of 92715 and a SysID of 1F7, please gather as much information as you can and provide it to us so that we can update the database.
1. control channel frequency
2. WACN (92715), System ID (1F7) and Site ID (## or ##.##)
3. Any peers / neighbors listed including the frequencies / channel numbers of the neighboring site control channels
Any P25 control channels for this system will be in the 854-862 mhz range. So that is the range you would want to check.
The following counties have Applachian Power sites licensed:
Boone
Cabell
Clay
Fayette
Greenbrier
Jackson
Kanawha
Lincoln
Logan
Marshall
Mason
McDowell
Mercer
Mingo
Ohio
Putnam
Raleigh
Summers
Wayne
Wyoming
I am sure there are some P25 sites online in WV, but us Ohioans can't just make continuous road trips all over America to track down this info for you. West Virginians with P25-capable scanners and the ability to use DSDPlus, Unitrunker or Pro96Com are those who can really help identify new sites online.
Please ask any questions here -- Post any information you get here. Screenshots from DSDPlus, Unitrunker and Pro96Com are fine.
Thanks
Mike
