When I try to program the Missouri State Highway Patrol frequencies, the names of tower sites that Radio Reference has assigned are often incorrect, or missing from the data base. The MOSWIN trunked system map shows where the towers actually are, but the locations that Radio Reference has assigned to some tower sites aren't sometimes accurate. I also believe Radio Reference is missing some of the tower sites in the data base.
If anyone is able to advise the current locations of the tower sites, and post them to the datat base, that would be a help? I notice some of the tower locations published by MOSWIN are not in the Radio Reference Data Base, or are named something different. For example, the "Ofallon" tower site is on the map published by MOSWIN, but it's not named in the Radio Reference Data Base. There are other incidents of towers that are represented as being in a particulae location, but the towers are physically located at the other end of the State from where Radio Reference is representing them to be.
It makes it very difficult to program tower sites into a scanner that are misidentified in the Radio Reference data base as being close, when the tower sites are actually 200 miles away.
