I’ve noted some discrepancies between Radio Reference Database (DB) and the new Southern NV Radio Scanner Book Feb 2009 8th Edition for the following Nevada Shared Radio System sites: Sloan, Jean, and Opal Mountain. Please note that the date of the Radio Reference database is March 01, 2009. Beyond the site just mentioned, there may be other sites that I’ve missed. I’ve also included Primm because the Southern NV Radio Scanner Book does not list Primm. This thread is not intended to be critical of either Radio Reference or Southern NV Radio Scanner Book. I find both organizations to be an extremely valuable source of information. I’m simple asking any one who has personal knowledge of the sites as to correctness of the information. I’ve listed below the frequencies by sites and the source of the site information. You will note there are differences between the Radio Reference and Southern NV Radio Scanner Book. For example, Southern NV Radio Scanner Book list two (2) additional frequencies for Sloan (Radio Reference list 8 frequencies and Southern NV Radio Scanner Book list 10 frequencies for the site). With regard to Jean and Opal Mountain, there appears to be no disagreement of frequencies between the two sources. With regard to Primm, I loaded the frequencies recommend by Radio Reference and monitored for several hours on several different occasions. I personally have never heard anything using these frequencies. I know other people in forum have previously indicated they have heard Primm. I will not debate this. I simple want to know if the people who do hear the Primm site are (1) using the frequencies recommended by Radio Reference (look below for current frequency list recommended by RR), (2) they are monitoring only the Primm site so not to be confused with another site’s reception, and (3) they are monitoring the Primm site at or near Primm (Stateline). Any comments and feedback about the two sources mentioned here are requested.
