Sullivan County

[bg_nashville]

Since there appears to be duplicate entries for the Bristol, Kingsport, and Sullivan County TRS in the database, I decided to do a little work and see if I could determine sites for the system based on the FCC license information. It is my estimation and I hope to confirm this over the weekend:

Sites 1,2, and 3 are licensed for the same frequencies except that 855.9875 is missing from the blountville site based on the FCC data.

Site 1:
WPPH365
Bristol (Holston Mtn)

855.9875
856.2625
856.7375
857.2625
857.7375
858.2625
858.7375
859.2625
859.7375
860.2625
860.7375

Site 2:
WPPH365
Kingsport (Bays Mtn)

855.9875
856.2625
856.7375
857.2625
857.7375
858.2625
858.7375
859.2625
859.7375
860.2625
860.7375

Site 3:
WPPH365
Blountville

856.2625
856.7375
857.2625
857.7375
858.2625
858.7375
859.2625
859.7375
860.2625
860.7375

I don't know if the following two systems are part of the overall system or if they are separate since they don't share the same frequencies with the sites above. My suspicion is that they are conventional frequencies.

KNNV775
Kingsport

856.4875
857.4875
858.4875
859.4875
860.4875


WPRG482
Blountville

856.7125
857.7125
858.7125
859.7125
860.7125

Let's try to nail this down so that TGs can be focused on. Having two different entries with overlapping TG IDs in the database is way too confusing for me.

Is anyone already able to confirm/deny my breakdown above?

I'll be heading down that way next week for the car races, and from what I've seen that does look about right as far as sites.

One thing I am going to try to get whilst down there is the specific control frequencies (generally, the times I've been down there I have noticed the control frequencies are the same no matter the site)--this should be helpful to those of us who have scanners that can trunk based on control freq (like the Pro-96, etc.).
