wiradio, in response to your first post, i tried looking up the FCC listing for the tower that i listen to in Rochester and i couldnt find any local listings for a RACOM system in rochester so i went about it another way by looking at all the licenses RACOM holds and the only one i could find for a TRS is for WPIZ405 which is just a statewide license for Iowa, but nothing for any of the other states that are known to have RACOM in it such as MN, IL or SD. I dont know of any local users of RACOM here in ROchester and the majority of the traffic, and i suspect the reason for its existence in Rochester is for all of the Medical crews coming up here such as Ambulances and Helicopters. The only other traffic i have ever heard coming off of the Rochester tower is the Daily Net and Network Maintenance.
I wish i knew more about EDACS systems, but is there any possiblity that you can set up an EDACS system similar to how Pilots turn on the lights at a rural airport by keying the airports frequency, in that it is only on when it is needed to be on and not creating a trunking CC when it is not needed?
