So I picked up a CW ID on the "Brown Dot" frequency of 464.500. The ID comes out as "5022525881" which looks like a phone number, but I tried calling it and it's out of service.

When I searched the RR database, I used the "FCC Data" option to search for that frequency in AZ, I only get one hit, "BLUE RIDGE UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT #32" which is way too far away. Then I searched for that frequency and "entire database" and I get over a hundred listings for AZ (not sure why the two searches have different results). Way too many to check, especially when you factor in national licenses. I also tried downloading the land mobile database from the FCC and searched the EN table for the phone number with negative results.

Anyone have any leads on this one?

That is an Itinerant freq and more than likely is not a permanent fixed base or repeater. I believe only mobiles can use itinerant freqs unless you have a STA from the FCC for a very short time period.

Area code 502 is a Louiseville, KY area code.

Living downtown by Chase Field and Footprint. I found many of the internant's to be used by local businesses and construction to name some of the users. A few have CW ID. GMRS is also used by businesses. Restaurants are the most common users locally.

Most commercial are DMR. 50/50 on single, double or more frequencies. Some utilize many single channels dual slot for each area like security and housekeeping etc etc.
