Yes sir I`ve found the DB on RR but was curious if anyone could verify if it is correct and possible changes.

Thanks

I don't know if this can help any at all, but here is a ranger district map for the Daniel Boone NF 2017 version, but currently posted on their website.

Ooopsy! I have a more detailed map of the Daniel Boone that I will show below. It is more detailed so it might help you. My dad got after me, the Daniel Boone is in the Southern GACC (& FS Region 8) and the Mark Twain NF is in the Eastern GACC (& FS R9). I had them reversed in my computer filing system. My dad used to quiz me when I was a teenager by naming a national forest and I had to answer what FS region it was in and what state it was in. Seems a bit extreme now. I looked back through my late husband's notebooks and found some frequencies listed for the Kentucky Interagency Coordination Center, but it is an aviation contact guide so I'm not sure if these are freqs. for the forest.

164.9375/164.9375 TX Tone 103.8 "Local Contact Redbird" Winchester is listed as the location
164.8000/164.8000 TX Tone 103.5 "Local Contact South" No location given
164.9125/164.9125 TX Tone 103.5 "Local Contact North" No location given
168.6500/168.6500 TX/RX Tone 110.9 "National Flight Following" No location given
168.6250/168.6250 TX/RX Tone 110.9 "National Air Guard" No location given

Quite often aviation resources are not given repeater frequencies as they can contact dispatch direct on the center's remote base. The new fed govt VHF band freq allocation puts all three of the nets (Redbird, South & North) in the repeater input range so those freqs are likely changed. They might even be the inputs for new rpt transmit freqs that are at this point unknown. At least we know that 3 networks are likely.

The identifier for this center is "Daniel Boone Dispatch." Often times the ground units drop the word "dispatch." This center is located at 1700 Bypass Road, Winchester, KY 40391.

I posted it as a PDF as you have to blow the image up to about 200% to be able to read it. I'm glad I poked around a bit in the notebooks, I found some answers to another project I'm working on.

My dad just yelled out from the living room "what is the smallest national forest?" Trick question that is. I told him to put a sock in it.
