Guys and girls...
The Statewide UCA system in the backend has been out of date for quite some time. As time permits, I am going in and bringing it in line with most other statewide systems. Most noticeable will be that cities are separated from county listings.
In the backend, none of the counties or cities were actually assigned to a county, the GPS ranges are set for state default ranges (220 miles), duplicate text information, and various forms of alpha tags for the same place.
Those using location/database aware scanners/software will see the changes, and no longer will be scanning the ENTIRE system when you want to hear something within 5 miles of your location (by default).
This will take a few weeks to accomplish and generally I am working in reverse alphabetical order so that the web display is least affected.
If you look at Colorado, Montana, Wyoming, etc - you can get a feel of the format.
