It is the Delta Airlines system. I'm just wondering why that needs to be stated with every single talk group? Removing "Delta" would leave room for a more descriptive user name.

Yeah it does seem redundant, I'm sure it could be abbreviated or removed completely

Deicing shouldn't be spelled with a hyphen. Saves another character.

I'm curious what you heard on TG37136 Gnd Cntl Tower Ground Control Tower Tie-in ? Is that radio traffic on the Delta System with the FAA Tower and the Ground Controller position, or is that Delta Tower coordination with ground agents? If it's coordination with the FAA Tower about aircraft movements, it would make more sense to label that channel as having to do with DL Ramp/ATC Coordination. (In this case you might want to leave DL in the description since that is what they are referred to on the radio.)

It was a while ago, so I try to remember. I did not catch who called, but it was on the Delta system, Someone called ground tower, and they responded. Comms about the movement of aircraft. I heard it the one time, and not since. It was late last year (2016) when I heard it. Does this help?
