Wow, guys; not to continue the hijack of the thread - since it is about tail numbers, but I thought we took care of this on another thread a couple of months ago. In addition to the deletions Chris mentions above...

#1 - Mobile Life Support Services has gotten itself out of the medevac business when the DSP's LifeGuard18 shut down the medevac portion of its operations (1H18 still flies law enforcement missions). Therefore delete the references to 155.2950 for them in Misc Medevac 7.

#2a LifeNet's Air 2 is no longer in Newburgh. It's now out of Kobelt Airport in Wallkill (Ulster), NY. Therefore delete all the MED-CH references for them and replace it with 451.5250 (D143).

#2b The MED-CHs formerly associated with Air 2 should be listed similar to the way Syracuse is handled:

AirCom Valhalla (or Westchester Medical Center, if you prefer) 463.0000 (179.9) bases
AirCom Valhalla 468.0000 (179.9) medevacs

#3 I was left with the impression the last time we all spoke about this that 465.8875 (D343) was used by the medevacs to talk to AirCom at Harris/Catskill Regional MC and that AirCom answered them back on 460.8875 (D343) and that 454.0625 was no longer used at Potsdam or Dexter (and that 451.5250, D743 was the correct Dexter channel).

#4 Is Glen's frequency confirmed? All of my notes show 155.265 for that site.

Guys, considering how often medevacs are buzzing around above us, I thought we would have had a pretty good handle on all of this by now.

Apologize for the consternation. I should have been more thorough in my review of existing documentation.

There's an application pending before the Commission from Air Methods Corp (see abbreviated details below). The frequency falls in line with the recent efforts to transition to a standard UHF channel licensed in the name of the corporation and not to be operating under someone else's license.

The proposed location has me perplexed. What 7-_ unit is this being set up for? Or will this be like Valhalla, Suffern, and Syracuse - intended for medevacs transiting the area and not set up to dispatch a specific unit?

IG 0007581050
Control Point 1 - 5307 LINDBURGH DRIVE, OMAHA NE 402-970-1430
12/05/2016 New Application Received
1 - 1207 NYS RT 9N, TICONDEROGA (ESSEX) NY [Structure: Building]
[Antenna 1 - HTT: 8.0m, HAAT: -101.4m]
451.525 FB Ant: 1 10p 10e Units: 1 11K2F3E


PS
Scott, no need to apologize. This is how we stay on top of our game. Information is shared that challenges what is known or thought to be true and we collaborate to hash out what is right and wrong.
